Helping your autistic child feel more ready for a dental visit

A first dental visit can feel unfamiliar for any child, and some autistic children may need extra preparation for new sounds, sensations, people, or routines. Knowing how to prepare an autistic child for the dentist can help parents make the experience more predictable. Simple steps can include talking about the visit ahead of time, using pictures or social stories to explain what may happen, practicing opening the mouth at home, and bringing a familiar comfort item when appropriate. Choosing a pediatric dental office that understands children’s individual needs can also make planning easier. Sunshine Kidds Dentistry provides pediatric dental care at 7533 North State Road 7, Parkland, FL 33073. Office hours are Monday–Thursday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM. www.sunshinekiddsdentistry.com/ pediatric-dental-services/ Call (754) 203-3003 or visit the pediatric dental services page to learn more.
