Consent of Services
As a condition of your treatment by this office, financial arrangements must be made in advance. All emergency dental
services, or any dental services performed, must be paid for in full at the time services are performed.
This office will help prepare the patients insurance forms, submit them to your insurance company and assist in resolving
any unpaid claims. The patient is responsible for all charges if insurance does not pay. All estimates for dental work to be
performed are estimates only and do not commit your insurance company to payment.
A service charge of 1½% per month (18% per annum) on the unpaid balance will be charged on all accounts exceeding 60
days, unless previously written financial arrangements are satisfied.
I understand that the fee estimate listed for this dental care can only be extended for a period of six months from the date
of the patient examination.
Checks returned for insufficient funds are charged a $20 service fee and if not resolved within 10 days will be collected at
3 times the face value of the check. Parent or guardian is responsible for all costs incurred for collecting debts including
but not limited to attorney and collections agency fees.
I grant my permission to you or your assignee, to telephone me at home or at my work to discuss matters related to this
form.
I hereby authorize the dentist to release all information necessary to secure payment of benefits. I authorize the use of this
signature on all insurance submissions and assign directly to Lucinda Ann Lewis DDS, PC all insurance benefits, if any,
otherwise payable to me for services rendered.
I authorize Dr. Lewis and the dental staff to perform all the necessary dental service for my minor child.
I have read the above conditions of treatment and payment and agree to their content.

NITROUS OXIDE INFORMED CONSENT
Although we do not use nitrous oxide for routine exams and cleanings, we would like to have your consent on file.
We use it as a helpful tool when we provide care such as fillings, extractions, nerve treatments, crowns, etc. There
is not a charge for Nitrous Oxide at our office. If you have any questions please ask Dr. Lewis or a staff member.
I HEREBY GIVE PERMISSION FOR DR. LEWIS AND STAFF TO PERFORM NITROUS OXIDE SEDATION.
I UNDERSTAND THAT THE ADMINISTRATION OF MEDICATION AND THE PERFORMANCE OF
CONSCIOUS SEDATION WITH NITROUS OXIDE CARRY CERTAIN COMMON HAZARDS, RISKS, AND
POTENTIAL UNPLEASANT SIDE EFFECTS, WHICH ARE INFREQUENT, BUT, NONETHELESS, OCCUR.
THEY INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING:
•
•
•
•
•
•
EXCESSIVE PERSPIRATION: SWEATING DURING THE PROCEDURE, YOU MAY BECOME
SOMEWHAT FLOURISHED DURING ADMINISTRATION OF NITROUS OXIDE.
EXPECTORATIONS: REMOVAL OF SECRETIONS MAY BE DIFFICULT, BUT CAN BE
CONTROLLED BY THE USE OF SUCTION TIP.
BEHAVIORAL PROBLEMS: SOME PATIENTS WILL TALK EXCESSIVELY. YOU MAY BECOME
DIFFICULT TO TREAT BECAUSE YOU ARE SO TALKATIVE, OR EXPERIENCE VIVID DREAMS
ASSOCIATED WITH PHYSICAL MOVEMENT OF THE BODY.
SHIVERING: ALTHOUGH NOT COMMON, IT CAN BE QUITE UNCOMFORTABLE. SHIVERING
USUALLY DEVELOPS AT THE END OF THE SEDATIVE PROCEDURE WHEN THE NITROUS
OXIDE HAS BEEN TERMINATED.
NAUSEA AND VOMITING: THIS IS THE MOST FREQUENT OF THE SIDE EFFECTS OF NITROUS
OXIDE SEDATION BUT ITS FREQUENCY IS STILL QUITE LOW. IT IS IMPORTANT TO TELL
THE DOCTOR, HYGIENIST, OR ASSISTANT THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING SOME
DISCOMFORT. THE LEVEL CAN BE ADJUSTED TO ELIMINATE THE SIDE EFFECT.
DRIVING A MOTOR VEHICLE: YOU MAY NOT FEEL CAPABLE OF DRIVING AFTER NITROUS
OXIDE. IF THIS OCCURS, WE WILL KEEP YOU UNTIL YOU FEEL BETTER OR HAVE YOU
CALL A FRIEND OR A CAB TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY.
I HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT, THE BENEFITS AND RISKS WHICH
INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
FEAR AND ANXIETY OF THE DENTAL EXPERIENCE AND/OR AVOIDANCE OF FUTURE DENTAL
APPOINTMENTS. THESE FEARS AND ANXIETIES IF NOT DIMINISHED BY THE USE OF NITROUS
OXIDE SEDATION MAY PRECIPITATE OTHER MEDICAL PROBLEMS INCLUDING FAINTING,
PALPITATIONS, AND OTHER HEART RELATED DISORDERS.
THE BENEFITS ONE CAN EXPECT FROM NITROUS OXIDE INCLUDE: HELP WITH ANXIETY AND
PAIN, GAGGING AND MEDICALLY COMPROMISED INDIVIDUAL.
I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT I UNDERSTAND THE AUTHORIZATION AND THE REASONS FOR THE
ABOVE NAMED SEDATIVE PROCEDURE AND ASSOCIATED RISKS. I AM AWARE THAT THE
PRACTICE OF DENTISTRY IS NOT EXACT SCIENCE. I HAD KNOWLEDGE THAT EVERY EFFORT
WILL BE MADE ON MY BEHALF FOR POSITIVE OUTCOME FROM SEDATION, BUT NO GUARANTEES
HAVE BEEN MADE TO ME AS TO THE RESULT OF THE PROCEDURE AUTHORIZED ABOVE.
