Text Messaging & Privacy Policy

At Appalachian Highlands Endodontics, your privacy and comfort are our priority. We use text messaging to make your visit as smooth and stress-free as possible—whether you’re coming in for an evaluation or emergency dental visits like a root canal procedure.

How We Use Text Messaging

By providing your mobile number, you consent to receive text messages from our office related to:

- Appointment confirmations and reminders

- Scheduling updates or changes

- Office location details and directions

- General office communications

Message frequency varies. Standard message and data rates may apply.

Your Privacy Matters

We take your privacy seriously and follow all applicable healthcare privacy standards, including HIPAA. To protect your information, we limit text messages to non-sensitive information only and do not include detailed treatment information (such as specific procedures or diagnoses) in our communications. This ensures that sensitive details about your teeth saving services remain confidential.

Important: Text messaging is not a fully secure form of communication. Please do not send personal health information (PHI) via text.

Opting In & Out

You can opt in to receive text messages by:

- Submitting a form on our website

- Providing your dentist contact information during scheduling

- Verbally consenting with our team

You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any message. For help, reply HELP or call our office at (423) 720-1245.
