Dental Health |
| |
Westerville Dental Health was established over
thirty years ago. Dr. Malik joined the practice in 1992, and
became the sole proprietor in January 1998. The practice moved,
in May 2005 to the present location. The office is conveniently
located on the growing north side of Westerville just off State
Route 3 (State Street) between New County Line Road and the Maxtown-Polaris connector. |

What are
your rights as a dental Patient? |
| |
At Westerville Dental Health, we want you to
be aware of your rights. When you are in our office, we want
you to feel comfortable. You have the right to see the dentist
every time you receive dental treatment, to know in advance
the type and estimated cost of your treatment, and to help you
understand the advantages and disadvantages of each type of
treatment we perform. |
| |
You should always expect dental team members
to use infection controls, such as latex or synthetic gloves.
You have the right to know the education and training of your
dentist and his team; if you have any questions regarding laws
and ethics that apply to our office, please let us know. |

Patient Protection |
| |
To reduce the chance of cross-contamination
of disease from patient to patient, and dental team to patient,
we take important measures. All our dental team members wear
face masks during active patient care to prevent the spread
of infection; new gloves are also worn for every patient and
disposed of immediately after their one and only use. Our dental
equipment is heat sterilized in our autoclave after each patient
visit. Many disposable items are used during dental treatment
because they can not be effectively sterilized. |
| |
We at Westerville Dental Health are very
conscious of the fact that health-threatening viruses, bacteria,
and other conditions are constantly changing and evolving
into new, sometimes more virulent strains. We are absolutely
committed to intensive continuing education by which we remain
current, informed, and capable of state-of-the-art patient
protection.
Our practice proudly meets and exceeds all OSHA regulations
for sterilization. |

Our New Patient
Experience |

Once you have made the first telephone call,
our staff will find a convenient appointment time for your schedule.
As an adult new patient, we normally schedule a one-hour appointment
involving all necessary dental radiographs and a comprehensive
exam by Dr. Malik. We will then schedule follow-up appointments
for future care, including your visit with our dental hygienist. |
| |
|
|
|
|
What if I
have an emergency? |
| |
During our normal business hours, if you call
with a dental problem, our staff will do everything we can to
help you immediately, Likewise, if you have a scheduled appointment,
and another patient is having an emergency, we will do our best
to see you in a timely manner. |
| |
Dr. Malik is available for emergency care 24
hours a day. If a problem arises any time we are not seeing
patients, there will be a telephone number listed on our voice
mail system. |

A word about
financing |
|
Our dental team wants you to be concerned with
your dental health, not your finances. We understand the need
for options that allow our patients to receive the dental treatment
they need and want. |
|
We offer a 10% discount on all procedures $250.00
or more that are paid in full at the time of service. In order
to receive this discount, payment must be made by check, cash,
or money order only. Also, any expected insurance payment will
be for your reimbursement only. |
|
As always, patients may pre-pay services |
|
With services that require two or more visits,
you may divide the total treatment cost into equal payments
to be taken care of at each appointment. |
|
Financing is available for up to twelve months
with no interest through our finance company, American General.
Please ask our business staff for more information. |
|
Finally we expect our patients to take care
of all expected co-pays and deductibles the day service is rendered
unless arrangements are made before the appointment time. |
|
For your convenience, we accept the following
methods of payment: personal checks, money orders, cash, VISA,
MasterCard, and Discover. |
