  • Dental Treatment Consent and Affirmation Form

  • I knowingly and willingly consent to dental treatment at Telluride Center for Dentistry by Dr. Grady, Dr. Kopasz, Heidi Weaver and Lynsey Bonebrake and any designated associates and employees during the reopening phase of COVID-19.

    I understand the COVID-19 virus has a long incubation period during which carriers of the virus may not show symptoms yet are still highly contagious.  It is impossible to determine who has COVID-19 and who does not given the current limitations and availability in COVID-19 viral testing. 

    Risk of transmission: I understand that due to the frequency of visits of other care dental patients, characteristics of the virus, and the characteristics of dental procedures, that I have an elevated risk of contracting the virus simply by being in a dental office, even though standard precautions are being observed.

    I am unaware of being a possible carrier or infected: I confirm that I have not tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 30 days and that I am not presenting with any of the following symptoms of COVID-19:

    • Fever of 100.5 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius or higher
    • Shortness of breath
    • Dry cough
    • Runny nose
    • Sore throat
    • Diminished sense of taste or smell

     Contact with infected: I confirm that I have not knowingly been in close contact (defined as 6 feet or less for a duration of fifteen minutes or more)  with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 14 days, or with anyone that has had the above stated symptoms in paragraph 4 (#4) in the last 14 days.

    Public travel: I confirm that I have not traveled outside of the United States in the past 14 days.  I confirm that I have not traveled domestically by commercial airline, bus, or train within the last 14 days.

     INFORMED CONSENT: I have been given the opportunity to ask any questions regarding the risks of contracting COVID-19 from the dental office and dental procedures.  I reaffirm that I am not a carrier of COVID-19 nor infected with COVID-19 to the best of my knowledge. I voluntarily assume any and all medical/dental risks, including the substantial and significant risk of serious harm, if any, which may be associated with any phase of my treatment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. I acknowledge that the nature and purpose of the dental procedures recommended under the current circumstances and restrictions have been explained to me and that I have been given the opportunity to ask questions.

  • Informed Consent for General Dental Procedures

  • You, the patient, have the right to accept or reject treatment recommended by your dentist. Prior to consenting to treatment, you should carefully consider the anticipated benefits and commonly known risks of the recommended procedures, alternative treatments, or the option of no treatment.

    Do not consent to treatment unless and until you discuss potential benefits, risks and complications with your dentist and all your questions are answered. By consenting to treatment, you are acknowledging your willingness to accept known risks and complications, no matter how slight the probability of occurrence.

    It is very important that you provide us with accurate information before, during and after treatment. It is equally important that you follow your dentists advice and recommendations regarding medication, pre and post treatment instructions, referrals to other dentist or specialist, and return for scheduled appointments. If you fail to follow the advice of the dentist, you may increase chances of a poor outcome.

    Certain heart conditions may create a risk of serious or fatal complications. If you have a heart condition or heart murmur advise your dentist immediately so he can consult with your physician if necessary.

    If you are a woman on oral birth control medication you must consider the fact that antibiotics might make oral birth control less or non effective.

    Do not sign this form or agree to treatment until you have read, understood, and accepted each paragraph stated above. Please discuss the potential benefits, risks, and complications of recommended treatment with your dentist. Be certain all of your concerns have been addressed to your satisfaction by your dentist before commencing treatment.

  • Financial & Cancellation Policy

  • Payment is expected at the time of service.


    If you have Insurance, we will bill your insurance company for their part and collect your co-pay amount from you at the time of service. Insurance is ESTIMATED and if your insurance does not pay as much as we estimate, you will be responsible for the difference.

    *You are responsible to know what your insurance company will cover, they will tell their insured more than they will tell a provider. We do our best to collect as much information about your coverage as we can. Therefore we can only relay to you what they tell us. (*As a courtesy, we bill many different insurances, it is diffucult to know exactly what your insurance will cover. If you need to know exactly, we are happy to file a Pre-Determination Estimate with your insurance company... again, Insurances also use "Estimated" benefits on their Predetermination Benefit Vouchers). Insurance companys also use the terminology "Usual and Customary Fee", insurance companys will not tell you what their usual customary fee is, every insurance company has a different Usual and Customary fee and it will reflect on their explanation of benefits after a claim is submitted.


    For more comprehensive treatment plans, ask about CARE CREDIT*, which allows you to pay over 6 or 12 months interest free with credit approval.
