Importance of Dental Care
At all ages, routine dental care is important. That’s still the case with patients who have physical and developmental disabilities as well. Our team does our best to understand where your child can improve their dental hygiene routine, if at all, and help keep their oral health on the right track at every visit. If your child has sensory issues, is unable to comfortably use a traditional toothbrush, or simply cannot stand the sights and sounds of the office, our friendly team will work with you to find ways to meet your little one where they are without compromising their health.
How We Help
Our team has been serving patients with special needs in Joliet for decades, and we’re proud that you’ve chosen us as your child’s trusted dental healthcare provider. Our pediatric dentists have specialty training and hands-on experience helping meet disabled patients’ access needs, and we utilize that knowledge to make you and your child’s visits as stress-free as possible. We highly recommend giving us a call in advance and letting us know more about your child so we can prepare the space to help them feel right at home.
Sedation Dentistry
In addition to our team’s preparation efforts and specialized experience working with patients with special needs, we also offer safe dental sedation whenever it’s necessary. Depending on your child’s past experiences at the dental office or their disability, we may recommend either nitrous oxide sedation, oral conscious sedation, or IV sedation to help make their appointment as comfortable as possible. Of course, we’ll consult you and answer any questions you may have to make sure you feel confident and comfortable moving forward with dental sedation for your child.
