What We Do To Provide Dental Care For Special Needs Patients

Our Katy, TX dentist’s office wants every patient to enjoy a degree of personalized care that makes them feel comfortable during treatment. It can feel difficult to find a dental office that is ready to accommodate special needs patients and ensure that their concerns are tended to properly. We are ready to take on measures that help these individuals feel secure in our office and in our dentist’s chair. If you have preexisting issues that make oral health care difficult to access, or if you are struggling to find a dentist who can help a special needs family member, let us know! We are ready to offer important services, and when necessary we work with anesthesiologists to carefully sedate patients who have a difficult time with any dental procedures.

We Understand That Some People Have A Difficult Time Accessing Dental Care

Individuals with special needs may find oral health services difficult to access. In some cases, patients are turned away at such frequency that it seems they will have to depend on general medical facilities to help them. Our practice is happy to meet with people who struggle to find facilities that can help them. We can take the time to get to know you or your family member and find how we can best serve them!

Using Sedation To Make The Treatment Experience Easier

For some people, sedation will be necessary for successful dental treatment. In these cases, we can work with anesthesiologists who are on hand to safely administer sedative agents, like nitrous oxide, to our patients. With this, we can provide routine dental exams, or we can perform more involved restorative dental work as necessary.

The Long-Term Benefits Of Having Access To Dental Care

Without access to consistent dental care, it will be difficult to prevent the onset of trouble like tooth decay and gum disease. These problems are capable of affecting more than just a person’s smile! In time, a cavity can lead to serious and painful infection issues. Gum disease may make it harder for a person to manage their general health, and it can leave them more vulnerable to tooth loss. We are proud to make care available to people with different needs, and different levels of comfort in the dentist’s chair, because we want to make sure they have protection against the potentially serious consequences of poor oral health.
