Special Needs Dentistry

At The Dentist’s Studio, we are proud to offer a safe and effective solution for patients with special needs who require dental treatment: deep sedation administered by a board-certified dental anesthesiologist. This service allows us to provide comprehensive care in a controlled, comfortable environment—without fear, stress, or struggle.

Who Benefits from Deep Sedation?

Deep sedation is ideal for patients who have:

  • Autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
  • Down syndrome
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia
  • Developmental or cognitive impairments
  • Severe sensory sensitivities or behavioral challenges

Why Deep Sedation Works

For patients who may have difficulty understanding or cooperating with dental treatment, deep sedation allows us to:

  • Eliminate the need for physical restraint or repeated appointments
  • Complete full dental treatment in a single, uninterrupted visit
  • Minimize stress for the patient, caregivers, and dental team
  • Deliver high-quality dental care in a controlled, medically monitored setting

Delivered by a Sedation Expert

We partner with Dr. Michael Walbom of Night Sky Sedation, a board-certified dental anesthesiologist who specializes in caring for patients with special healthcare needs. His mobile anesthesia services ensure hospital-grade monitoring and medication protocols are brought directly into our office.

“Our mission is to make dental care accessible for everyone, regardless of fear, ability, or medical complexity.” – Dr. Zachary Hodgins
