In addition to being essential to the safe and appropriate treatment of a patient, failure to take and keep an updated health history for every patient places the dentist at risk in the event of any claim for malpractice. ProSystems, in collaboration with the National Society of Dental Practitioners, offers a free guide, "History Taking: The Dos & Don`ts," by Burton R. Pollack, DDS, attorney at law. The guide covers all of the elements necessary to complete a proper health history.
