What Is Special Needs Dentistry?

Special needs dentistry focuses on providing thoughtful, individualized care for children with physical, developmental, behavioral, or cognitive conditions that may make a typical dental visit more challenging.

At Kids Tooth Team in Buda, we’re experienced in caring for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), sensory sensitivities, cardiac or respiratory concerns, and other medical or developmental conditions. We take extra steps to create a calming, supportive environment—modifying our approach to ensure your child feels safe, respected, and cared for throughout their visit. Our goal is to make dental care accessible, comfortable, and empowering for every child and family.

Why Is Kids Tooth Team Different?

At Kids Tooth Team in Buda, we go beyond routine care to truly understand and support children with special healthcare needs. Dr. Alex has completed two specialized residency programs focused specifically on treating patients with complex medical and developmental conditions. Along with our team of highly trained pediatric specialists, she’s passionate about connecting with each child, learning what makes them unique, and creating a personalized care plan that fits their needs and abilities.

Customized, Collaborative Approach

We offer one-on-one consultations—either in person or via video—so you can meet with your child’s dentist before their visit. This helps us better understand your child’s history, sensitivities, and goals, and allows us to build a treatment plan that works for your family.

Designed with Comfort in Mind

Our Buda office is packed with kid-friendly amenities to help your child feel relaxed and at home. We also use gentle, minimally invasive techniques, including drill-free dentistry and a full range of sedation options, so every child can receive care in the way that suits them best.

What to Expect From Treatment

Initial Consultation

Your child’s care starts with a personalized consultation at our Buda office—or virtually through a teledentistry visit if that’s easier for your family. During this time, you’ll meet with one of our doctors to review your child’s medical history, current medications, and any accommodations they may need. Whether your child is on the autism spectrum, has a physical disability, or simply feels nervous at the dentist, we’ll take the time to listen and understand.

Develop a Customized Treatment Plan

Every child is different—and their dental care should be, too. We’ll collaborate with you to create a fully customized treatment plan that prioritizes your child’s comfort and needs. From dimmed lighting and noise-canceling headphones to setting up their favorite movie or minimizing distractions, we’ll create an environment where your child can feel safe and supported.

Get the Care Your Child Needs

Once your child’s treatment plan is in place, we’ll move forward with the dental care they need to maintain a healthy, happy smile. Depending on your child’s situation, we may recommend more frequent visits to help them become more comfortable in the dental setting and stay on top of their oral health. Whatever your child needs, we’re here to help make every visit a positive experience.

How does Kids Tooth Team accommodate special healthcare needs?

At Kids Tooth Team, we take a highly personalized approach to special needs dentistry. Every child’s treatment plan is customized based on their unique personality, medical background, and sensory preferences. Before your child’s first visit, we encourage you to fill out their medical history online—this gives our team valuable time to prepare and create a supportive, stress-free experience.

We also welcome you to share any insights into your child’s preferences—what helps them feel calm, what to avoid, and how we can make their visit easier. For added comfort, we offer videos of our office that you can watch with your child before their appointment. This way, they can get familiar with the sights and sounds of our space in advance, helping reduce anxiety and build trust.
