A Sydney dentist with a long list of famous clients has been fired after allegations of inappropriate behaviour were brought to light.

Dr David Carr, who counts actor Nicole Kidman and singer Jessica Mauboy among his clients, was working at the Smile Care dental clinic in Double Bay.

However, the dentist was recently sacked from his contract with the clinic following an internal investigation into 'serious complaints about inappropriate behaviour'.

It is understood his contract was terminated after 'serious complaints about inappropriate behaviour towards Bupa employees'. He is pictured here with Jessica Rowe

'We can confirm that we've terminated Dr Carr’s contract following an investigation into serious complaints about inappropriate behaviour towards Bupa employees,' a spokesman from Bupa - who own the clinic - told Daily Mail Australia.

'In doing so we have also notified the Healthcare Complaints Commission of this matter.'

However Dr Carr has refuted the reports, claiming he had gone into retirement due to stress, and dismissed the harassment allegations as 'rumours'.

'That’s weird, that’s weird.

The rumour mill goes on. Double Bay is always happy to stir up a rumour. There is no way I can substantiate those claims', he told The Daily Telegraph.

The dentist has also worked with actor Cate Blanchett, models Nicole Trunfio and Lara Worthington, TV personalities Jessica Rowe and Sonia Kruger.

Dr Carr made headlines last year after former Auburn Deputy Mayor Salim Mehajer (right) launched a scathing attack on him after Mary Mehajer (left) won the Miss Lebanon pageant

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Dr David Carr for further comment.
