How We Serve Patients with Disabilities

We take a personalized approach to dental care, adjusting our techniques and processes to suit each patient's unique needs. From the moment you arrive, our team works to make every aspect of the visit as smooth and comfortable as possible—for the patient and their caregivers alike.

We routinely accommodate:

• Physical disabilities (e.g., mobility issues, wheelchair use)
• Intellectual and developmental disabilities (e.g., autism, Down syndrome)
• Sensory processing disorders
• Neurological conditions (e.g., cerebral palsy, epilepsy)
• Anxiety disorders and dental phobias

Accommodations and Modifications We Offer

Our practice environment, clinical protocols, and communication style are adapted to ensure inclusive dental care. When scheduling an appointment, we encourage caregivers to share any information that may help us tailor the visit.

Depending on individual needs, we may provide:

• Extra time during appointments to ensure patients are never rushed
• Modified communication techniques, including visual aids and caregiver collaboration
• Noise and light adjustments to help minimize sensory overload
• Wheelchair accessibility, including ramps and a wheelchair-friendly treatment room
• Caregiver involvement in the operatory to provide reassurance
• Flexible scheduling options to minimize wait times and avoid peak hours
• Sedation Dentistry when appropriate, for patients who cannot tolerate care otherwise

Our goal is to reduce anxiety and build trust, allowing each patient to feel at ease while receiving the care they need.

Meet the Doctors Who Put People First

Personalized care begins with providers who genuinely listen. Our disability-inclusive dentistry is led by Dr. Robert J. Damurjian and Dr. Mark A. Nasr—two experienced clinicians who take extra time to understand each patient’s unique health history, behavioral needs, and comfort level.

We’re not interested in one-size-fits-all care. We’re here to build relationships and provide excellent dentistry, one patient at a time.
