At Market Place Dentistry, we want dental care to be an easy and enjoyable experience for everyone – and that includes patients with unique needs, including brain injuries, Down syndrome, and Alzheimer’s.
Dr. Blankenship-Sniker has a brother with an autism spectrum disorder. When she saw he faced challenges when receiving dental and medical care, she made serving those with special needs a central part of her dental training.
She is happy to meet with any patient and/or their caregiver and determine what kind of service modifications may be needed, including treatment in a hospital. Call Market Place Dentistry at 770-670-4753 today to see how we can help meet your or your loved one’s needs.
In the meantime, see some of the ways we can make your lives easier:
- Treatment in a Hospital – Dr. Blankenship-Sniker has admitting permissions at several hospitals, so she can easily treat you or a loved one there if needed. Sometimes this is simply the best option. She will discuss this in detail with you, including the estimated cost.
- Sensory Modifications – You’ll find several features at our office to make treatment more pleasant for those with sensory sensitivities. They include dimmable lighting, weighted blankets, sensory pillows, and noise-canceling headphones. We’re happy to work with you on other modifications, if needed.
- Accessibility – Of course, our office has a wheelchair accessible entrance and bathroom.
- Special Scheduling – If necessary, we can arrange for you or your loved one to see Dr. Blankenship-Sniker outside regular business hours. We’re also happy to split up procedures into smaller “chunks” if that makes it easier for you.n
Do you have patients with unique needs in your family? We would love to give them the great dental experience they deserve! Call Market Place Dentistry at 770-670-4753 today for an appointment in Roswell, GA.
