The dental record/chart is an official document. As such attention to detail is vital in all aspects of this document. Part of the "due diligence" for each and every dental office should be the monitoring and auditing of these documents. Of particular importance is the medical history of the patient. This should always be reviewed with the patient orally and signed by the reviewer.
Dynamic Dental Safety can assist the office with the "auditing form" that should be employed to ensure full compliance with your State Board of Registration as well as many of the insurers.
