-
Unforeseen circumstances (e.g. temporary closure due to health and safety regulations like COVID-19)
-
The dental practice didn’t receive a response when they tried to confirm with you
-
You (or someone on your behalf) submitted a cancellation request
-
Other internal scheduling issues at the dental office
