COVID-19 Screening
Shaw Orthodontics
Watauga Office

If you have been exposed to a communicable disease prior to your orthodontic appointment, you may spread the disease to the orthodontist, orthodontic staff and to other patients/parents in the practice. Therefore, prior to each appointment, we require you to answer the following questions:

 
Have you, your child, or others accompanying you to today’s appointment been tested positive for or been diagnosed as having Covid-19?



If so, when?


Do you, your child, or others accompanying you to today’s appointment have:






Do you have fever or have you felt hot or feverish recently (14-21 days)?



Are you having shortness of breath or other difficulties breathing?



Do you have a cough?



Any other flu-like symptoms, such as gastrointestinal upset, headache or fatigue?



Have you experienced recent loss of taste or smell?



Are you in contact with any confirmed COVID-19 positive patients? 



Is your age over 60?



Do you have heart disease, lung disease, kidney disease, diabetes or any auto-immune disorders?



Have you traveled in the past 14 days to any regions affected by COVID-19? (as relevant to your location)



If any of you have any of these symptoms or have recently tested positive for or been diagnosed with Covid-19, you will be asked to reschedule your orthodontic appointment.
