Special Needs Dentistry
Special Needs Dentistry for Patients in San Diego
At Juni’s Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, we believe every child deserves exceptional dental care, regardless of their physical, intellectual, or developmental challenges. Our specialized team is trained and equipped to provide gentle, understanding care for children with special needs throughout San Diego.
Understanding Each Child’s Individual Needs
We recognize that children with special needs may require modified approaches to dental care. Our team takes the time to understand your child’s specific condition, communication style, and comfort level to create a personalized care plan that works for your family.
Our Specialized Approach
Pre-Visit Preparation
We encourage families to visit our office before the appointment to help your child become familiar with our environment, staff, and equipment. This “happy visit” can significantly reduce anxiety and make future appointments more comfortable.
Sensory-Friendly Environment
Our office features calming colors, soft lighting, and noise-reducing elements to create a comfortable atmosphere for children with sensory sensitivities.
Flexible Scheduling
We offer longer appointment times and can schedule visits during quieter periods of the day to minimize overwhelming stimuli.
Customized Communication
Our team adapts communication styles to meet each child’s needs, whether through visual aids, simple language, or alternative communication methods.
