Why it matters for dental
Dental practices that sell or sample snacks in waiting areas, pediatric offices, or giveaways must verify ingredients to avoid liability from hidden allergens that could trigger severe reactions in patients.
Key points

- Milk-sensitive patients risk anaphylaxis; offices providing snacks should remove this product immediately.
- Staff should review all patient-provided snacks or retail inventory for undeclared allergens to reduce risk of in-office incidents.
- No direct regulatory action for dental offices, but allergen awareness aligns with broader patient-safety protocols.
