“Act as an experienced pediatric dentist writing a referral letter to another dental specialist. Draft a professional referral letter template for sending a pediatric patient to an orthodontist. The letter should include sections for: patient age and chief concern, relevant clinical findings observed during exam, treatment we have already completed in our office, specific reason for referral and question we're asking the specialist, and a courteous closing that invites collaboration. Keep the tone collegial and professional. Make the template easy to customize by using [BRACKETS] for details I'll fill in later. Do not include any real patient information.”
