Minor Medical Consent Form

"I need a Minor Medical Consent Form for my 14-year-old daughter's ongoing orthodontic treatment at London Bridge Dental Practice, starting January 2025, with specific provisions for emergency procedures and photography consent for treatment monitoring."

Document background
The Minor Medical Consent Form is a crucial document required in England and Wales whenever medical treatment is proposed for a person under 18 years of age. It ensures compliance with legal requirements established by the Children Act 1989 and related legislation. The form demonstrates that informed consent has been properly obtained from those with parental responsibility, while also acknowledging situations where mature minors may have capacity to consent under Gillick competence principles. This document is essential for healthcare providers to demonstrate they have obtained proper authorization before proceeding with treatment.
