We have a staff and office environment that is fully equipped to handle the unique concerns of special needs patients. Dr. Paes is a caring and gentle dentist with experience in treating children and adults with developmental handicaps or disabilities. He understands the specific oral health concerns they may face as well as how to accommodate them in the dental chair.

Everyone deserves a healthy and beautiful smile, regardless of a medical diagnosis or injury.
A Comfortable Dental Experience
for Special Needs Patients
Town Center Dental of LaGrange is prepared to treat patients with physical limitations, mental limitations or both. Our office is stocked with modern patient amenities to help them feel at home as well as state-of-the-art technology to make our dental care services faster and less invasive. In addition, Dr. Paes is qualified to offer oral conscious sedation as well as IV sedation for those that need extra help relaxing in the dental chair. From a child with Down’s Syndrome to an adult with Alzheimer’s, our team is dedicated to excellence in special needs dentistry.
Dr. Paes understands that special needs patients are often more vulnerable to oral health problems such as gum disease and tooth decay. Due to poor dexterity or mental challenges, routine oral hygiene can be more difficult. We will educate caregivers on the best ways to maintain dental health, despite these obstacles. In some cases, we may want to see a special needs patient more frequently for routine cleanings.
Rest assured that Town Center Dental of LaGrange is fully equipped to provide all types of dental services under one roof, from general and restorative dentistry to cosmetic dentistry and emergency care. Once your loved one feels comfortable in our office environment, you won’t have to go anywhere else for specialized dental work. This is a valued advantage for those who are developmentally disabled.
