The medical history form
Your health comes first
For safe dental treatment tailored to you
For safe dental treatment tailored to you
To provide safe dental treatment tailored to you, we need to know about your general health as well as your teeth. That's why we ask all new patients to fill in a medical history form carefully on their first visit to our dental practice in Meidling, Vienna.
What is the medical history form?
The medical history form is a questionnaire in which you tell us important information about your general health, any current symptoms, medication you take, allergies and existing medical conditions. This helps us plan your treatment as well as possible, keep your needs in focus and avoid any risks.
Why is the medical history form so important?
Your health is our top priority. Many medical factors – such as blood thinners, chronic illnesses or allergies – can affect dental treatment. A fully completed medical history form allows us to respond to your individual needs.
Especially for surgical procedures, local anaesthetic or certain materials (e.g. fillings or dentures and other tooth replacements), it is essential that we know about any relevant medical conditions or intolerances.
Data protection & medical confidentiality
Everything you tell us is, of course, covered by medical confidentiality and data protection law. Your information is used solely for your treatment and is kept confidential.
Please keep us up to date!
Please let us know whenever your health changes – for example, a new diagnosis, new medication, an operation or an allergy. That way, we can always adapt your dental care to your current situation.
How it works:
- You'll be given the form at reception at your first appointment
- You're welcome to fill it in at your leisure in the waiting area
- We go through your answers together and clear up any questions
- Your treatment is tailored to your individual needs
