We Welcome Patients with Special Requirements

Dentist appointments can be scary! They can also be hard to sit still for, complicated to understand, and trigger reactions you weren’t expecting. We understand all of that at Hunt Family Dentistry. Every smile is unique, and every patient is unique. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment for all of our patients. 

We work to support individual needs whenever possible while ensuring a positive experience for every patient we serve. Our special needs dental clinic in Frisco, TX, offers thoughtful accommodations for patients with certain disabilities, dental phobia, or a severe gag reflex.

Dental Phobia

To reduce anxiety and fear, we implement a variety of strategies, including a calming office environment, gentle communication, and the option for sedation dentistry. We believe in building trust with you by listening to your concerns and adapting our approach to suit your comfort levels. Even during treatment, you can raise your hand or get our attention, and we’ll stop to check on you, explain anything, and change tactics if necessary. Our goal is to ensure that fear does not stand in the way of anyone receiving dental care.

Severe Gag Reflex

Understanding that a severe gag reflex can significantly impede dental procedures, Dr. Hunt makes use of distraction methods, slower and more careful placement of dental instruments, and sedation options when necessary. We strive to ensure that you don’t feel self-conscious or uncomfortable throughout your visit. That way, you get dental care you might otherwise avoid due to your gag reflex. Our team is attentive and patient, ready to adjust treatment approaches as needed to support a more comfortable visit.
