As the parent/guardian of the student, I understand that through MCHP Bakersville Dental Center School-Based Oral Health Program, a Public Health Dental Hygienist will be coming to my child's school to provide a Dental Screening and, as needed, a Dental Cleaning, Fluoride Treatment, and Dental Sealants.
Dental sealants, in addition to regular brushing and flossing, protect your child's teeth from cavities. Dental sealants are a thin, plastic coating that is put on the tops of the back teeth to seal out food and germs. Sealant(s) is applied on teeth that appear to not have a cavity, and they don't hurt. Program services do not include drilling or shots.
I authorize MCHP Bakersville Dental Center to perform the above necessary procedures. I'm aware that these services are not free, and MCHP Bakersville Dental Center will bill your child's dental insurance. I'm also aware that if my child does not have dental insurance, I may apply for MCHP Bakersville Dental Centers Sliding Fee Discount by contacting the dental center at (828) 537-5991.
By signing below, I confirm that I understand this form and the information disclosed.
