HIPAA Privacy Policy

Best Dental Creations Kendall is fully committed to safeguarding the privacy, integrity, and security of our patients’ Protected Health Information (PHI). In compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), this Privacy Policy describes in detail how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your health information when you receive services at our practice or interact with our website.

Your PHI includes any information that identifies you and relates to your dental or medical history, treatment, or payment for healthcare services. This may include your name, address, medical records, treatment notes, X‑rays, insurance details, and any communication related to your care. Our practice uses this information strictly for purposes related to your treatment, the coordination of care, billing and insurance processing, and compliance with federal and state regulations.

We may share your PHI with trusted third‑party service providers such as dental laboratories, imaging services, billing companies, or electronic record platforms. These partners are required by law and by contract to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information. We will only disclose the minimum necessary information required to complete a specific task or service.

We also implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure your PHI remains protected from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. Our staff is trained in privacy procedures, and we regularly review our systems to maintain compliance with HIPAA standards. In the unlikely event of a data breach involving your PHI, we will notify you promptly as required by law.

We may use your contact information to communicate appointment reminders, treatment updates, billing notices, or important updates related to our services. You may request alternative communication methods or limitations on how we contact you.

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted on our website with the updated effective date.

• Access your medical and dental records and request copies.

• Request corrections if any information is incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated.

• Ask for restrictions on how your PHI is used or disclosed for treatment, payment, or operations.

• Request that communications be sent to you through alternative methods or addresses.

• Receive a record of certain disclosures made outside of treatment, payment, or operations.

• Request a paper or electronic copy of this HIPAA Privacy Policy at any time.
