Appointments may be scheduled with our appointment coordinator by either filling out the form below and submitting it, by calling (563) 332-1600 or by sending us an email to appointments@bettendorfdentalpc.com . If you cannot keep your appointment commitment, please contact us as a courtesy, at least TWO BUSINESS DAYS AHEAD.
When an appointment is broken with short notice, four different groups of people suffer:
First, YOU suffer, because you have not received your needed care
Second, the dental hygienist, assistants, and/or doctor who had expected to see you have no patient in their dental chair, since that time was reserved specifically for YOU.
Third, the dental practice suffers an economic loss, since our overhead (rent, utilities, salaries, etc.) continue whether you are here or not.
Fourth, our patients suffer, since there are patients on lists who would have enjoyed being offered that time, if only they could have been contacted in advance so that they could make arrangements to be here.
A security test to determine whether or not the user is human. This will ensure that only human visitors will actually submit the form, and not spamming bots that are browsing the web from site to site and submit spam where they can. It is well known that programmers can do programs for many jobs, including visiting a large amount of sites on the Internet by following links from page to page and collect emails listed on websites, submit contact forms, or even trying to break passwords by trying to login over and over again with computer generated passwords.
Fortunately, it is impossible for a non-human ( ex. computer program ) to extract a word or a combination of letters and numbers from an image, if the letters and numbers are not all of the same size and of similar font. This is why, the Image Verification security method ensures that only people actually can submit a form.
