What's Considered Special Needs Dentistry?
Special needs dentistry is a vital aspect of pediatric dental care that focuses on addressing children's dental health with diverse needs. Patients with special needs may include those with medical, physical, psychological, or social circumstances that necessitate modifications in regular dental treatment, including:
- Children with learning disabilities
- Children with physical disabilities
- Patients with developmental disorders such as Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and autism spectrum disorder
- Children with behavioral disorders or severe dental anxiety
- Patients with chronic medical conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer
Special needs dentistry involves providing oral care to children who might find it challenging to receive standard dental treatment. It is a specialized area that requires patience, compassion, and extra training for dental professionals. At Park Pediatric Dentistry, we have the necessary skills and experience to address the unique needs of special patients.
