Appliance Removal Consent North Carolina

Patient Name*
First Last
Has been evaluated to begin the process of appliances removal.

You are now entering an important phase of your treatment – the Retention Phase. Completed orthodontic treatment does not guarantee perfectly straight teeth for the rest of your life. Teeth have ‘memory’ of where they once were and a tendency, like all parts of our bodies, to change with age. As such, your teeth might tend to move back to their original positions or shift over time. Retainers are a great way to avoid or minimize post-treatment change and are required to keep your teeth in their new positions. Regular retainer wear is necessary for the rest of your life as your body is continually undergoing growth, maturation and change even as an adult. The retention phase lasts for 12 months and the number of visits will be at the doctor’s discretion. However we recommend the patient continue to wear the retainers a couple of nights a week for life, or as long as you wish to maintain your final orthodontic result!

Retainer Instructions and Responsibilities
I understand that I have the following responsibilities:
- Wear my removable retainers as directed by my orthodontist
- Do not wear my removable retainers during eating to prevent damage.
- Keep my removable retainers in the proper case when not wearing them
- Maintain my scheduled retention appointments as prescribed by my orthodontist.
- Bring all removable retainers to my retention appointments.
- I will continue care with my General Dentist and have him/her evaluate the readiness for wisdom tooth extraction, if applicable.
- If I have my wisdom teeth extracted following orthodontic treatment, it is required that I continue to wear my retainers after my extractions. Failing to do so will result in unwanted tooth movement/relapse and may void my retainer and treatment guarantees
- Call the office immediately if my retainer breaks or is not fitting properly.
Lost or Broken Retainers
Your retainers are made using only the best possible materials. If a retainer is lost or damaged, call our office immediately to schedule an appointment. There may be a laboratory charge for replacement per retainer.
Reason for Removal (Select One Option Below)
Treatment was completed and I am satisfied with the final results! I understand if further treatment is required due to unexpected growth or noncompliant retainer wear, additional charges may be applied.
*By selecting any of the options below, I understand the orthodontic care is incomplete, however I request that treatment be terminated and all orthodontic appliances be removed. Furthermore, I release MyOrthodontist from any and all liability for any adverse consequence that might result from discontinuation of said treatment. I understand I will receive a set of retainers to avoid any further movement of the teeth. I understand that stopping orthodontic care may lead to uncontrolled movement of the teeth and future treatment may be needed.

I've been a patient at Happy Tooth for Some months now and I love everybody there!! Everyone is so kind and very energetic. They do great job with my teeth, I love them! I always enjoy going there and I would definitely recommend this place to people out there who want a there teeth looking good. But i got to say one of favorite staff members is Orlando!! He's really kind and always making jokes and definitely doesn't make it boring.

Both of my daughters have braces at The Happy Tooth. My oldest daughter went thru her braces ordeal over 6 years ago and honestly I would not have recommended a dog to go there for teeth care. So I was concerned when my youngest required braces as well. My fears were unfounded. New staff.. Very professional and welcoming for the parents and children. The staff before would not allowed parents to go back with their children but now they have no problem with it at all. Kudos for great staff.. Welcoming environment. Thank you for treating us as people and not just cash in your pocket as the previous staff did.

I'm currently a patient at happy tooth and they have done an amazing job on my teeth and friends and family of mine that have past experience at the happy tooth. I have to say I enjoy being around every employee that works there. They are always so kind to me and give me the best experience when going to my appointments. Janet is always so helpful at the front desk and explains everything so thoroughly to me when I ask questions and so does the doctor and everyone in the back working on me and others teeth. If I had to recommend anyone that needed braces to an orthodontist it would have to be this one. I love The Happy Tooth and wouldn't have traded this experience for anything.

I can't find the right words to describe the extraordinary work that all the Happy Tooth staff does, they are charismatic, kind, generous, patient, caring, I take my son who has special needs, and they work with him in a phenomenal way , Orlando has a unique patience with my son, welcomes him and attends him very well, my son feels very happy when he goes to his appointments because he knows that he is going to see Orlando who has become his friend.They are very friendly, I highly recommend them, they do an extraordinary job.God bless you.

It's somewhat far for me since we live on the South end of Fayetteville,but my son procedure was done in a timely manner and the staff is very friendly Smiles all over the place and very patient with children. That may be fearful of the procedure of getting braces.

Even though I haven't started the process with Happy tooth yet I have already had such great customer service from Heather the office manager. She has keptme updated awaiting one of my daughters approvals and has went above and beyond! Since I have spoken to the office manager I am full confident that I will have my approval and I will be satisfied with the Happy tooth for my daughters treatment! Thank you so much for all your hard work Heather !!

Happy Tooth and the staff that work there has been absolutely great. My daughter, Seymora Netherly, has been going there since December 2019. I have had some problems with my vehicle and being out of work therefore that has put me a couple months behind on my payments, and Mrs. Heather and the rest of the staff has worked with me really well about my payments and I am very grateful and appreciative. Happy Tooth Stanford is a great place to carry your children if they need the help that you are looking for. The staff are nice and caring and they care about each and everyone of their patients. I could not have chosen a better place to took my daughter. Thank you Happy Tooth. Sincerely, Ms. Ward
