I understand that information provided from or to my medical doctor or another health care provider may be necessary, and I consent to the release of this information.

In our continued commitment to provide the highest quality dental care to all of our patients and to make those services comfortably affordable, we are pleased to offer you these payment options. We will, as a courtesy, process your insurance benefits in our office, which will relieve you of this time consuming and sometimes complicated task. We are committed to support you in understanding your dental health, so that you will always be able to make the best choices.

I agree that I am fully responsible for the total payment of all procedures performed in this office - this includes any treatment that is not a benefit of any dental insurance that I may have.
