What if My Child has Special Needs?



At Capital Pediatric Dentistry we welcome children with special needs. Special needs children may be at a higher risk for dental decay due to special diets, special medications, or difficulty in maintaining good oral hygiene. Dr. Crippen has extensive training and experience in treating patients, of all ages, with special needs. Each patient will receive the extra time they need to ensure all aspects of oral health are evaluated.

Please inform our staff of any special healthcare needs your child may have so we may schedule the appropriate amount of time for their appointment.
