Many people have allergies to dust and pollen. Some people
have specific allergies to certain medications or materials.
You will be asked about any specific allergies you may have
on your new-patient questionnaire. Be sure to let us know
prior to treatment if you have allergies to any of the following:
Allergies to Medications
| If you have ever had an allergic reaction
to any medication, including dental anaesthetics, please
let us know. If you can't remember the name of the medication,
we can contact the health care provider that used or prescribed
the medication to get the name. We have alternate anaesthetics
that can be used in case of allergies to certain dental
anaesthetics ("numbing" agents). There are alternate
drugs that can be prescribed in case of allergies to oral
antibiotics or analgesics (pain relievers). |

Allergies to Materials
If you are allergic to Latex, please notify us prior to treatment
and we will be happy to use vinyl gloves instead. If you have
any other allergies we should be aware of, please let us know
so we can provide a comfortable environment for you.
