Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after a dental visit should I send the feedback form?

Send within 24-48 hours while the experience is fresh. For procedures involving recovery, consider a follow-up survey at the 1-week mark to capture post-treatment satisfaction.

How do I measure dental anxiety effectively?

This form uses validated emoji-based anxiety scales and asks about anxiety before vs. after treatment. This helps identify which aspects of your practice help reduce patient anxiety.

Should I ask about pain levels for routine cleanings?

Yes, even routine cleanings can cause discomfort for some patients. The pain scale section is conditional and allows patients to skip if not applicable. This data helps improve technique and identify sensitivity issues.

How can I use this feedback to improve my dental practice?

Focus on recurring themes: if multiple patients mention wait times, improve scheduling. If pain scores are high for specific procedures, review techniques or consider additional anesthesia options. Share positive feedback with staff for morale.

Is this form HIPAA compliant?

The form template itself doesn't collect PHI beyond general satisfaction feedback. For full HIPAA compliance, ensure your hosting platform is HIPAA-compliant and avoid asking for specific diagnosis or treatment details.
