Office Updates!

Electronic Forms

September 6th, 2017

We have updated our software system!  Parents and guardians will now receive TEXT MESSAGE CONFIRMATIONS for upcoming appointments (YAY!) with the time and location of your visit.  Parents can also FILL OUT FORMS FROM HOME before check-up visits!

1 week before your scheduled dental check-up, grown-ups will receive an email asking to fill out forms - these include:

  • Health History
  • Accompany Forms (for other grown-ups to bring the kiddos)
  • HIPPA updates
  • Consent forms
  • New Patient forms

You can also view account information and update anything that looks incorrect (like phone numbers, addresses, or emails) or review previous bills.

Why the update?

Filling out forms before your appointment is especially important to do if your kids are older and bringing themselves or if someone other than a legal guardian is bringing the children!

If you do not fill out forms before you come, don't worry!  You can still fill them out on our tablet at the office... AND IT'S BETTER!  Our tablet system is updated and much more user friendly.  We promise :)

To receive and email with link to forms, we will need an email address on file.  If you don't think you've ever given us one, feel free to call in and update your information over the phone!  Once you've received an initial log-in email, you can always review your account or update forms by following the patient forms link from our website.

If you fill out forms at home, YOU WILL STILL BE HANDED THE TABLET TO SIGN IN TO YOUR APPOINTMENT.  Don't get upset.  Just sign in, verify who you are, and you should be all set.  We promise!

Our Favorite Parts...

What's our favorite part?  Well, the text messaging is pretty great.  BUT our new health history form is integrated! (And also very detailed - which makes Dr. Terry and Dr. Sarah very happy.)  This means that after you fill it out for the first time, your answers will be remembered.  You won't have to list 3 medications or 2 allergies, or all of your kiddos' medical conditions on there.  Every. Single. Time.  The first time you fill out this form it may seem lengthy (but easy!).  But every time after, when you log on, you will be told:  "Hey!  It looks like Johnny has Asthma and takes Albuterol and has No Known Allergies.  Anything else change?  Want to add anything new?"  Ta-Da!!  Done.

Please let our staff know what you think of our new system or how you would like it changes or adapted.  Call our office at 319-364-2413 to update us on changes to your email address or new cell phone numbers that you would like to receive text message confirmations on.  Thank you in advance for all of your patience while we enhance our system.  And thank you for being such great families  :)
