Special Needs Dentistry
If you have a toothache and someone were to tell you that you had to take a trip to the dentist, chances are, the first feelings you may experience are anxiety, stress, and a little bit of panic.
We understand this is a reality for most people and that the dental chair is not everyone’s first choice, but it is an extremely important part of oral care.
