Dental Records Release Form Template
Authorize the transfer of dental records to a new provider with a form that captures all the details practices need to process the request quickly.
Transferring dental records to a new provider shouldn't take weeks of phone tag. A clear authorization form captures the patient's details, the receiving practice's information, what records are being released, and the patient's signature — giving both the sending and receiving practice everything they need to complete the transfer without confusion.
This template covers patient name and date of birth, current dental practice details, receiving practice name and address, records being requested (X-rays, treatment notes, periodontal charts, photos), the purpose of transfer, date range of records, and the patient's authorization signature. A consent statement confirms the patient understands how their information will be shared.
Dental practices, orthodontists, oral surgeons, and patients initiating transfers use this form to streamline the records release process. Send via email or embed on your patient portal. When a new patient submits the form, staff can initiate the request immediately without waiting for a paper form. Completed authorizations are stored digitally for your records.
