If Your General Dental Consent Forms Aren’t Making You Money—You’re Doing It Wrong
Let’s be real: most general dental consent forms are as exciting as watching fluoride varnish dry.
You hand them out, patients sign them blindly, and they get filed away in a digital black hole—never to be seen (or understood) again.
But here’s the wild part:
These forms are actually the single most underused, overpowered trust-building tools in your entire practice.
Yup. That dusty document that checks the legal box could become your new patient retention system, case acceptance multiplier, and recurring revenue generator—all in one.
How?
With a little help from humor, clear communication, and a powerful tool called BoomCloud™.
Let’s dive in. It’s about to get spicy. ️
STORY: How Dr. Lindsey Turned Her Consent Forms Into a $200K Revenue Machine
Dr. Lindsey was a rockstar clinician in Colorado. Her patients loved her. Her team was tight-knit. But she had one giant headache:
“I’m tired of people saying they’ll ‘think about it’ after reviewing the treatment plan… and then disappearing forever.”
Her general dental consent forms were dry. Legal. Boring.
Then she made one tiny change:
She included a friendly summary of the treatment… plus a paragraph explaining her BoomCloud™ membership plan—how it made treatment affordable and insurance irrelevant.
She even dropped in a QR code at the bottom of the form that linked to her BoomCloud™ signup page.
Fast forward 12 months:
-
493 new members
-
$17,500 in Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
-
$210,000+ in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
-
86% treatment acceptance rate (up from 51%)
-
Dr. Lindsey: “I stopped feeling like a salesperson and started feeling like a guide.”
It all started with that general dental consent form upgrade.
The Form Isn’t Just About Liability—It’s About Loyalty
You think your general dental consent forms are for protection. And yeah, legally, they are. But here’s the epiphany:
“Consent is a moment of attention. And attention = opportunity.”
Patients actually read these forms—at least more than your email newsletters, let’s be honest.
So why not use that attention to:
Educate
Build Trust
Promote your BoomCloud™ membership plan
Encourage immediate treatment acceptance
When done right, your consent form becomes step one in a long-term, high-value relationship.
