Back-To-School / Registration Packs

Back-To-School is the best time to get parents to complete the dental permission form. Be sure to include the dental permission form with your Back-To-School or Registration Packet at the beginning of each school year.   Kindergarten Round-Up – Don’t forget to put the dental permission form in your kindergarten round-up/enrollment packet. We can supply you with the consent forms before the beggining of the year to get you ready for the next calender year's visit.

Question 4

Announcements

Accepted Answer

Be sure to make announcements on your school’s PA system about the dentist coming to school. Here are the best times to make announcements:   1. Distribution day – To remind students to bring forms home and have their parents complete, sign and return the permission forms.   2. One week AFTER distribution day – To remind students to bring the permission forms back to school and to remind teachers to return them to you.   3. Day of dental visit – Ask students to check their backpacks and teachers to check their desks.   *WE CAN STILL SEE STUDENTS WHO HAND IN A PERMISSION FORM ON THE VISIT DAY.
