Supplemental Informed Consent
Thank you for your continued trust in our practice. As with the transmission of anycommunicable disease like a cold or the flu, you may be exposed to COVID-19, alsoknown as “Coronavirus,” at any time or in any place. Be assured that we have alwaysfollowed state and federal regulations and recommended universal personal protectionand disinfection protocols to limit transmission of all diseases in our office and continue to do so. Despite our careful attention to sterilization, disinfection, and use of personal barriers,there is still a chance that you could be exposed to an illness in our office, just as youmight be at your gym, grocery store, or favorite restaurant. “Social Distancing”nationwide has reduced the transmission of the Coronavirus. Although we have takenmeasures to provide social distancing in our practice, due to the nature of theprocedures we provide, it is not possible to maintain social distancing between thepatient, orthodontist, orthodontic staff and sometimes other patients at all times.
Although exposure is unlikely, do you accept the risk and consent to treatment?
