When I walked in I was informed that if I was vaccinated (I’m not) that I wouldn’t have to wear a mask. I promptly ripped my bandanna off. The receptionist then asked, “if it’s okay with you, the ladies who are vaccinated would like to know if it would be alright if they could take their masks off too?” I yelled - I was the only patient in the office - “take them off, liberate yourself!” They all laughed, it was great. But it’s bullshit that we even have to be at this point. Small victories tho...

No. Please get your teeth fixed because bad teeth will make you sick. Our office doesn't require the jab but we make a note if a patient get it because of the anesthetics we use. Dr is concerned that if a patient gets sick that he will be blamed. On the other hand, I'm sure I must have been exposed to Covid from all the spit I have to suck up. I believe shedding is real
6 months ago I didn’t need a vaccine to go to the dentist (I went twice). Why would anyone need one now? Did millions of people die since then? No. Still waiting on all the homeless to drop dead.
A dentist has always worn a mask anyway while working in case of blood droplets and transfer of disease usually through blood.
Wife had 2 molars extracted and will have implants put in, in about 3-6 months
You can’t do that while wearing a mask
See the dentist. Your teeth will only get worse and more expensive
I don’t know, but I doubt they have access to my general practitioners records. That would be pretty crazy, but not too surprising. The receptionist didn’t ask to see a vaxx card.
Unless you've specifically signed a very detailed release form that expressly permits your practitioner's office to divulge your vaccination records to your dentist, then no they are not able to find that information. This is the exact thing that HIPAA protects you from.
