Helping Special Needs Patients with Special Care
Our Mission
Helping Special Needs Patients with Special Care
We understand that each individual patient requires a customized plan regarding their treatment. In addition to providing options for your dental care, we will coordinate a custom “comfort plan”.
It all starts with our staff taking the time to listen and get to know the patient and their needs. Once a trusting relationship has begun, most patients do well in the general setting. For those individuals who may have had bad experiences in the past or have a physical or cognitive disability, we offer a full range of “comfort plan options” ranging from oral sedation and nitrous oxide to general anesthesia. Many patients come from all over the Mid-South & metro Memphis area for our unique “comfort plan” options. Following an initial examination, the special needs patient can often have all the treatment performed in a single appointment with sedation.
Practice Philosophy
Our mission is to provide the finest oral health care with genuine compassion, warmth and commitment to quality. We excel at maintaining a caring environment that is respectful of all individuals. The goal of our unique dental practice is to provide total patient care, which means that we listen to our patients concerns and consider their needs and goals for optimum health.
