What this is, in plain language

Dental care for children with physical, developmental or sensory needs, with staff trained to adapt communication and sensory-friendly tools to customise lighting, sound and materials. Offers sedation options including nitrous oxide and general anaesthesia.

Getting started

Call the office or book an appointment online; sedation and scheduling options for children with additional needs can be discussed when you book.

Written from what the provider publishes, to save you decoding it. It describes the service; it is not our view of how good it is.
