Dental Professionals of Wellington

Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions explain how you may use this website and what to expect when you contact Dental Professionals of Wellington online, by phone, or by text message. By browsing this site, requesting an appointment, or texting our office, you agree to the terms below. Please read them before you submit any information to us.

Acceptance of Terms

By using this website in any way - reading our pages, requesting an appointment, filling out a form, or contacting our team - you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any part of them, please do not use the site and contact our office directly instead.

Permitted Use of This Website

This website is here to help you learn about our dental services, get to know our doctors and team, request or change an appointment, and reach our office with questions. You are welcome to browse, share, and print pages for your personal, non-commercial use.

Any dental information on this site is provided for general education. It is not a diagnosis, not a treatment plan, and not a guarantee of any particular outcome for your smile. Your specific needs can only be evaluated properly during an in-person visit with one of our dentists.

Intellectual Property and Content Ownership

The text, photographs, logos, graphics, and overall design of this website belong to Dental Professionals of Wellington, unless another source is credited. Please don't copy, republish, or use our content for commercial purposes without asking us first. If you'd like to reference or share something from our site, a quick message to our office is all it takes to get permission.

Accuracy and Disclaimer of Website Information

We do our best to keep the information on this site current and accurate, but dentistry is personal, and no two smiles or treatment plans are identical. Anything you read here - including descriptions of procedures, recovery, or results - is general in nature and cannot substitute for an actual clinical examination.

  • Recommendations come after an exam: any treatment suggestion made through this website, over the phone, or by email is preliminary only. A real recommendation comes after we've actually examined you in person.
  • Insurance listings are not a guarantee: if we mention an insurance plan we work with, that does not guarantee coverage for any specific procedure. Coverage depends on your individual plan and benefits.
  • Fees and policies may vary: we don't publish specific fees or scheduling policies on this page. Please contact our office directly for current details.

Limitation of Liability

This website is provided as a convenience so you can learn about our practice and reach us more easily. We work to keep it accurate and running smoothly, but we can't promise it will always be error-free, uninterrupted, or perfectly current. Dental Professionals of Wellington is not liable for decisions made solely on the basis of website content, or for technical issues that may affect your experience using the site.

Acceptable Conduct

We ask that everyone who uses this site does so respectfully and responsibly. In particular, please do not:

  • Submit another person's health information or contact details through our forms without their knowledge and permission.
  • Post false, misleading, or harmful reviews or comments about our practice, doctors, or staff.
  • Attempt to disrupt, hack, or misuse the website or its forms in any way.

Links to Third-Party Sites

Our website may occasionally link to outside resources, such as an insurance carrier's website or a dental association's patient education page. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Any link you follow away from our site is at your own discretion.

Changes to These Terms

We may update this page from time to time as our services, technology, or policies change. Continuing to use the website after an update means you accept the revised terms. We encourage you to check back occasionally, especially before submitting personal information through our forms.

Your Relationship With Our Practice

No Dentist-Patient Relationship From the Website Alone

Browsing this website, requesting an appointment online, or sending us a message does not, by itself, create a dentist-patient relationship. That relationship begins only once Dental Professionals of Wellington has accepted you as a patient, typically confirmed when you've scheduled and completed your first visit with our team.

Educational Content Only

Articles, treatment descriptions, and blog posts on this site are meant to help you understand your options in general terms. They are not dental advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for an exam with one of our dentists. Please don't delay or change any care plan based solely on something you read online - talk with us directly instead.

No Guarantee of Specific Results

Every mouth responds differently to treatment, and cosmetic outcomes in particular depend on factors unique to each patient. Photos, descriptions, or examples on this site are shared to illustrate the type of care we provide, not to promise that your results will look or feel exactly the same.

Protected Health Information

Dental Professionals of Wellington handles patient health information in line with applicable privacy laws, including HIPAA where it applies to our practice. Please keep in mind that website contact forms are not a secure substitute for discussing your health history, symptoms, or records with us. If you have sensitive health questions, it's best to call our office or wait to discuss them during your visit.

Appointments and Cancellations

You can request, reschedule, or cancel an appointment through our Request Appointment page, by phone, or in person. We ask that you give our office as much notice as possible if you need to change a scheduled visit, so we can offer that time to another patient. Specific scheduling policies are explained by our front desk team and are not listed on this website.

Insurance and Financing

We're happy to work with a number of insurance plans and offer payment options to help make treatment manageable. That said, the plans and payment methods we accept can change, and mentioning a plan on our Insurance page is not a guarantee of coverage for any specific procedure. Please confirm your benefits and coverage directly with your insurance carrier, or ask our billing team before treatment begins.

How You Opt In

When you provide your mobile number through a website form, an appointment or booking request, a text keyword, or a paper form at our office, you are consenting to receive SMS messages from Dental Professionals of Wellington.

Please only provide a mobile number that belongs to you, and by doing so, you confirm that you are authorized to give consent for that number.

SMS Privacy and Vendors

We use your mobile number and SMS consent records only to send you the types of messages described above and to meet carrier requirements. We do not sell this information to third-party marketers. We may share limited information with the SMS and telephony vendors and mobile carriers that help us deliver these messages. For more detail on how we handle your personal information, please see our Privacy Policy.

Questions About These Terms

If anything in these terms and conditions isn't clear, or you'd like to talk with us about how we handle your information or text messages, we're happy to help. Reach our office by phone or through our contact page, and a member of our team will get back to you.

Last updated: recently. We may revise this page from time to time, and continued use of this website means you accept the current version of these terms.
