Special Care Dentistry

Patients with special needs are those, who due to physical, medical, developmental or cognitive conditions, require special consideration when receiving dental treatment. This can include people with Autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Down syndrome, spinal cord injuries and countless other conditions or injuries that can make standard dental procedures more difficult.

Caring for a special needs patient takes compassion and understanding. While most dentists can accommodate for special needs patients, we at Dr. Wayne Nakamura, DDS, Inc., focus on meeting the needs and working with the limitations of these patients. If you, your child or someone you know has special needs, please feel free to contact us to discuss you and your loved ones’ options.
