Awake

Asleep

Bruce
has cerebral palsy and a previous neck injury, making it difficult to be positioned comfortably and be treated in a traditional dental office setting.
Cailan
a teen with Autism, had the combined challenges of difficulty communicating with others along with past trauma at the hands of dentists not equipped to handle special needs. A customized office visit and a complete treatment plan delivered while asleep, in a hospital setting, was able to provide the care and comfort he needed.
Jill
is developmentally delayed. She fell at camp and required an emergency solution to missing front teeth that would be functionally suitable to her lifestyle.
