Dental Patient Intake Form: questions people ask

Why does the dentist ask about heart conditions and joint replacements?

Some patients need antibiotics before certain dental procedures. Your dentist decides based on current guidelines and, if needed, a talk with your physician.

Why do bone medications matter?

Drugs such as bisphosphonates can affect healing after extractions or implants, so the dentist needs to know before planning treatment.

Is my dental history shared with my doctor?

Only for treatment coordination or with your authorization, under HIPAA and state law.

Can I fill it on my phone?

Yes. Open it with Fill PDF and sign on screen, or the office can send it as a web form.
