At Pediatric Dentistry of Lebanon, we are committed to providing personalized, compassionate dental care for every child, including those with special needs. We understand that each child’s needs are unique, and our goal is to create a calm, welcoming environment that helps children feel comfortable, safe, and supported throughout their dental visits.
Tailored Care for Children on the Autism Spectrum
We know that the unfamiliar sounds, sights, and experiences of a dental office can sometimes be overwhelming for children with sensory sensitivities. That’s why we offer a variety of flexible options to make sure your child’s visit is as smooth and stress-free as possible. Whether your child needs a quieter environment, extra time during their appointment, or even a chance to meet the staff in advance, we are here to customize their care based on what works best for them.
Practice Visits to Build Comfort
We believe that building trust is key to ensuring a positive dental experience. To help your child feel more at ease, we offer "practice visits" where they can come in just to explore the office, sit in the dental chair, and get familiar with the space—without the pressure of a full appointment. These visits allow your child to gradually get comfortable with their surroundings, building the confidence they need for future treatments.
Partnering with Parents for the Best Care
At Pediatric Dentistry of Lebanon, we value input from parents and caregivers. You know your child best, and we encourage you to share any tips or preferences that will help your child feel more comfortable during their visit. Whether it's a favorite toy, a specific routine, or sensory accommodations like dimmed lighting, noise-canceling headphones, or weighted blankets, we are happy to incorporate these into your child’s dental care plan.
Our Commitment to Your Child's Well-Being
We are passionate about making every child’s experience positive, especially for those who may have heightened sensitivities. Our team is here to provide the patience, understanding, and personalized care that your child deserves, ensuring they feel safe and respected throughout their time with us.
At Pediatric Dentistry of Lebanon, we are dedicated to helping all children, regardless of their medical diagnoses, achieve a healthy smile. We are here to work alongside your family to make sure your child receives the best care in a compassionate, supportive environment.
