We take measures to accommodate children who require special needs dentistry in Highlands Ranch and Castle Pines, CO.

Dr. Jon Sierk’s goal is to help all children achieve and maintain healthy smiles, including differently abled children or those with special needs.

Special Needs Pediatric Dentistry

All children are special and unique in their own individual ways. For this reason, we don’t take a cookie-cutter ...

Don't Rush When You Brush

Children with special health needs can achieve excellent oral hygiene with the help of their caregivers. Here are some of our suggestions:

  1. Use larger-handled toothbrushes for children with limited dexterity
  2. Use specially formulated fluoride toothpaste and mouth rinses to prevent gum disease
  3. Limit sugar and high carbohydrate-containing foods in the daily diet
  4. Use flossers with handles to make flossing easier.

One of our goals is to help children and their caregivers feel more confident in their ability to practice good oral hygiene. For more tips or information about your child’s dental care, call our dental office and someone from our friendly staff will be happy to help you.  

Children with special healthcare needs deserve extra time and care when it comes to caring for their smiles. Dr. Jon and our entire team are trained to provide special patients with expert dental care that’s tailored to their specific needs and preferences, so they can remain comfortable and happy.
