Informed Consent for Dental Treatment

  1. I hereby authorize Shelby Pines Family Dentistry to take x-rays, study models, photographs and other diagnostic aids deemed appropriate by the dentist to make a thorough diagnosis of your dental needs.
  2. Upon such diagnosis, I authorize Shelby Pines Family Dentistry to perform all recommended treatment mutually agreed upon by me and to employ such assistance as required to provide proper care.
  3. I hereby authorize Shelby Pines Family Dentistry to administer anesthetic, sedative and or nitrous oxide (laughing gas) as necessary. I fully understand that using anesthetic agents embodies certain risks. I understand that I can ask for a complete recital of any possible complications associated with this.
  4. I agree to be responsible for payment of all services rendered on my behalf or my dependents behalf. I understand that payment is due at the time of service unless other payment arrange-ments have been made. In the event that payment is not made I understand there may be a late charge added to my account. I also agree to pay for all collection costs if additional collection is required.

It is very important that you provide your dentist with accurate information before, during and after treat-ment. It is equally important that you follow your dentists advice and recommendations regarding medica-tion, pre and post treatment instruction, referrals to other dentists or specialist, and return for scheduled appointment. If you fail to follow the advice of your dentist, you may increase the chances of a poor outcome.

The patient is a very important part of the treatment team. In addition to complying with the instructions given to you by this oce, it is important to report any problems or complications you experience so they can be assessed by your dentist.
