Affiliate Disclosure

Dalton Family Dentistry  ·  Effective Date: January 1, 2026  ·  Last Updated: April 2026

FTC Compliant

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255). For more information, visit the FTC’s official guidance.

Section 01

What Is an Affiliate Relationship?

An affiliate relationship exists when a business recommends or links to a third-party product or service and may receive a commission or other compensation if you click on that link or make a purchase through it — at no additional cost to you.

This is a common and legal practice used by many websites and businesses to help offset the costs of running a website and creating content. Affiliate income does not influence the price you pay for any product or service.

Whether or not we receive compensation, our recommendations are always based on our honest professional opinion and what we believe will benefit our patients and visitors.

Section 02

Our Affiliate Relationships

Dalton Family Dentistry’s website may contain links to third-party products, services, or resources that we believe may be of value to our patients and visitors. These may include, but are not limited to:

  • Dental care products (toothbrushes, toothpaste, whitening kits, floss, etc.)
  • Oral health supplements or vitamins
  • Dental insurance comparison tools or providers
  • Patient financing services (e.g., CareCredit or similar)
  • Health and wellness resources or tools

When an affiliate link is present on our site, we will make every reasonable effort to identify it clearly, either by labeling it as “affiliate link,” “sponsored,” or “ad,” or by including a disclosure notice near the relevant content.

We only affiliate with products and services that we have evaluated and believe align with the health and well-being of our patients. We do not promote products solely for financial gain.

Section 03

No Extra Cost to You

If you choose to click an affiliate link and make a purchase, you will not pay any more than you would by going directly to the product or service provider. In some cases, our affiliate partnerships may allow us to offer you exclusive discounts or promotions.

Any commissions we earn help support the operation of our website and the creation of free dental health content — they never affect what you pay.

Section 04

Our Opinions Are Our Own

All content published on the Dalton Family Dentistry website — including product mentions, reviews, and recommendations — reflects our genuine professional opinion. We are not paid to write positive reviews, and affiliate relationships do not influence the clinical advice or recommendations provided by Dr. Michael Blackmon or our team.

Our primary obligation is always to your dental health and well-being. Any product or service we mention is one we believe can genuinely benefit you.

If we receive a product for free for review purposes, we will disclose this clearly. A free product does not guarantee a positive review — we will always share our honest assessment.

Section 05

Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to external websites that are not operated or controlled by Dalton Family Dentistry. When you click an affiliate or external link and leave our site, you are subject to that third party’s terms of service, privacy policy, and other policies.

We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy and terms of any site you visit.

Section 06

Patient Testimonials & Reviews

Any patient testimonials or reviews featured on our website or marketing materials reflect the real experiences of individual patients. Results may vary and are not guaranteed. Patients are never compensated for their reviews, and reviews are shared voluntarily.

We do not edit or alter the substance of patient reviews. In some cases, we may correct spelling or grammar for readability, but the meaning is always preserved.

Section 07

Updates to This Disclosure

As our website evolves and affiliate relationships change, we will update this page accordingly. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

We encourage you to check back periodically. If you have any questions about a specific link or recommendation on our site, please don’t hesitate to ask us directly.

Section 08

If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships, or if you’d like to know whether a specific link or recommendation on our site is affiliated, please reach out to us — we’re always happy to be transparent.
