An individual, safe plan for children with a syndrome or chronic illness.
Dental treatment of children with Down syndrome, autism spectrum conditions, neurological or serious chronic illnesses needs special attention and patience. Staying in the chair for a long time and tolerating sounds and light can be hard for these children. That is why we plan treatment according to each child’s condition.
Our approach
At the first visit we learn from the parent about the child’s particular needs, habits and what calms them
We carry out the examination without rushing, at the child’s pace
If sedation is needed, we contact the child’s doctor and paediatrician
If the child’s general condition does not allow sedation, we say so openly and look for another way
For us, the child’s health and safety come first, before the teeth.
