Common Problems Dental Offices face using Paper Consent Forms

Paper consent forms carry hefty burdens for dental practices. Front office staff spend most of their day putting together clipboards and stacks of forms, trying to decipher illegible handwriting, chasing patients for missing signatures, performing time-consuming data entry, searching for missing charts, shredding, scanning, making copies, and other paper-related tasks. This causes front desk exhaustion, and leaves them with little time to provide patients with the individualized attention and open communication they’re wanting. In addition to time wasted on paper forms, extra expenses come from needing paper, copiers, ink cartridges, scanners, fax machines, and other paper related items.

What are Dental Informed Consent Forms and why do you need them?

A Dental Informed consent form is a document giving permission from the patient or guardian of the patient for a procedure or treatment to occur. It implies that the one signing the consent form is aware of the agreement, its indications, alternative treatments, and any potential risks involved. Dental consent forms are important for protecting patients and providers. Liability is a valid concern for dental practices, and consent forms ensure that all the necessary information has been communicated to the involved patient (or their guardian) and they have consented with full understanding.
