These terms govern your use of the website operated by Alta Vista Dental Care, 196 Lincoln Way, Auburn, CA 95603 (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Medical and dental information disclaimer
The content on this website is general information about dentistry and about our practice. It is not medical or dental advice, it does not create a dentist-patient relationship, and it is not a substitute for an examination, diagnosis, and consultation with a licensed dentist. Treatments, timelines, and outcomes described here are typical examples; your situation may differ, and individual results vary. Nothing on this site should be used to delay or replace care from a dental or medical professional.
If you have a medical emergency, significant facial swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, or trauma to the head or jaw, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Do not use this website, our contact form, or email to request emergency care.
Scope of practice
Dr. Heather Beaty, DDS, is a general dentist. Services described on this site that are associated with a dental specialty are provided by a general dentist who is not a licensed specialist in that area, and some procedures are referred to a specialist when that is the better choice for the patient.
Appointment requests
Submitting the appointment request form or contacting us does not by itself create an appointment. An appointment is confirmed only when our office confirms it with you. The form is for scheduling requests, not for urgent care.
Use of the site
You may use the site for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not copy, scrape, or republish the content without permission, interfere with the operation of the site, attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system, or use the site to send unsolicited communications.
Intellectual property
The text, photographs, graphics, logos, and design of this site belong to Alta Vista Dental Care or are used with permission. Photographs of our team and office are of real people and places and may not be reused. Trademarks of other companies named on the site belong to their owners.
Third-party links and services
The site links to and embeds services operated by other companies, including the appointment form provider and review and map sites. Those services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, which we do not control.
Disclaimer of warranties
The site is provided “as is” and “as available.” We work to keep the information accurate and current but do not warrant that the site will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of harmful components, or that the information is complete or current at the moment you read it.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Alta Vista Dental Care and its dentists, staff, and agents are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website or its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from the website will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Placer County, California.
Changes
We may update these terms from time to time by posting a new version here with a new date. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
