Autism‑Friendly Mobile Dental Hygiene for Children
Gentle, Personalized In‑Home Dental Care for Autistic Children
At Solange Smiles at Home, we bring compassionate, autism-friendly in-home dental hygiene right to your door—designed specifically for children on the spectrum. By offering a calming and familiar environment, we reduce stress and the need for general anesthesia, making dental care more accessible, comfortable, and effective.
Challenges and Why Specialized Care Matters:
Children with autism often face unique dental care challenges due to sensory sensitivities—bright clinic lights, unfamiliar sounds, tastes, or smells can trigger anxiety and avoidance.
As a result, they are more likely to skip checkups and experience untreated tooth decay, with higher rates of needing treatments under general anesthesia.
Our Approach
▪️ Home-Centered Comfort: We deliver care in the child’s own environment, reducing sensory overload from unfamiliar surroundings.
▪️ Visual Supports & Routine: Using visual schedules, social stories, and step-by-step cues helps children anticipate each part of the appointment—minimizing anxiety and improving cooperation.
▪️ Sensory Sensitive Tools: We use gentle toothbrush options, mild or unflavored paste, and adapted techniques to accommodate individual sensory needs.
▪️ Gradual, Patient Centered Care: We employ desensitization and behavioral strategies, building trust over time through consistent, kind interactions.
Benefits
▪️ Averts the need for general anesthesia or sedation.
▪️ Encourages regular dental hygiene in a familiar environment—promoting long-term oral wellness.
▪️ Supports families and caregivers through personalized, respectful care.
