At Kids Tooth Team, we make it our goal to provide high-quality dental care to every child in the Kyle area. That’s why our Kyle team specializes in treating kids with special needs. At our Kyle office, your child can always get the care they need from an experienced pediatric dentist. We provide compassionate care tailored to each child’s unique needs. Contact our Kyle dental office to learn more about quality care in a supportive environment.
Special needs dentistry involves treating children with cognitive or physical disabilities that can make routine dental care challenging. For instance, sights and sounds may cause anxiety for Kyle-area kids with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or sensory issues. It also encompasses accommodating developmental, cardiac, respiratory, and sensory processing disorders. We take necessary precautions to ensure children with complex medical needs feel completely at ease and safe under our care at our practice. Special needs dentistry allows us to adapt our approach and environment to best serve each child’s unique needs.
We create customized treatment plans tailored to each child’s unique needs. Our team consults with parents/guardians to discuss specific situations and steps to help their child feel comfortable at our practice. We greatly appreciate receiving medical histories online beforehand so we can prepare accommodations in advance. Since each child has individual needs, we rely on families to inform us of their likes, dislikes and recommendations to create an ideal environment. We also have office tour videos to show children what to expect, allowing them to see everything before their visit. Accommodating special needs requires collaboration, so please share any preferences or concerns.
We begin with a personal consultation to fully discuss your child’s needs, medical history and other relevant information. Meeting face-to-face allows us to start building rapport and trust as we learn about your child's unique situation. Teledentistry meetings over video are also available, if preferred.
Next, we create a tailored treatment plan outlining the steps we'll take to ensure your child feels comfortable and safe. For sensory issues, we might minimize lights and sounds, provide headphones, or play a favorite movie. We accommodate all special needs.
Once everything is prepared per the treatment plan, our dentists provide the care necessary for healthy smiles. Regular visits will help maintain dental health while further acclimating your child to our office. More frequent cleanings may benefit some children.
Our extensive experience and specialty training in caring for special needs children sets us apart. Dr. Alex completed two residencies focused on these patients. Our entire Kyle team loves learning about each child’s unique needs to create customized treatment plans suiting them.
We offer in-person or video consultations with our Kyle dentists before your child's appointment to deliver truly tailored special needs care.
Our kid-friendly office uses the latest tools and technology for remarkable care. We provide a range of sedation choices plus drill-less, micro-invasive techniques perfectly suited for special needs.
Proudly serving patients in Buda, South Austin, Kyle, Manchaca and the surrounding communities.
