At Emerald Coast Dentistry, we welcome patients with special needs and complex medical histories. Many other practices will transfer or refer special needs patients to us because of our compassionate care for these unique individuals. We feel this is an important part of our work, and we are fully equipped to provide the comprehensive dental care they need at a facility that can accommodate them. If you live in the area of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, call us for more information about our special accommodations at: 850-863-1722.

Special Needs Training

Our doctors and staff have undergone specialized training to work with patients who display a wide range of mental and physical handicaps. Plus, the years of day-to-day experience accommodating those with special needs have made us more understanding and capable of helping them become comfortable in a dental office. We do everything we can to give these patients the care they need.

Anxiety-Free Dentistry

Dr. Erin B. Sutton and Dr. Thomas L. Hills go to great lengths to calm the mental and emotional states of special needs children and adults who require compassionate care and possible sedation. Our doctors will take every necessary step to ensure patients are anxiety-free during their visit. For patients with complex medical histories, special-needs conditions, or extreme anxiety, we’re able to offer several options for sedation and anesthesia and a range of anxiety reduction techniques, including behavior management, nitrous oxide sedation, oral sedatives, and general anesthesia.

Special Physical Needs

We are a handicap-friendly office with a facility that has accessibility in mind for our special needs patients. The treatment bays and bathrooms can fully accommodate all our patients no matter their physical disability.
