Specialized Dental Care

We specialize in providing dental care for patients with special healthcare needs, including those with autism, cerebral palsy, attention deficit disorder, Down syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, seizure disorders, heart disease, diabetes, malignancy, blood disorders, and many other developmental and behavioral conditions. Our team is experienced in providing care for patients with medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, malignancy, and blood disorders.

In addition to our specialized care, we also provide routine dental care for infants, children, and adolescents. We believe in the importance of creating a dental home for our patients by age 1, where we can introduce them to a child-friendly environment and conduct a well-baby visit.

Prevention and Education

We are committed to prevention and education, and strive to make every experience a positive one. We want our patients and their parents to be educated and informed throughout their experience in our office.
