Providing both primary and comprehensive preventive and therapeutic oral health care to individuals with special health care needs (SHCN) is an integral part of Pediatric dentistry.
At Dental Avenue, we value the unique qualities of each child and the need to ensure maximal health attainment to such children, regardless of developmental disability or other special health care needs.
Dr. N.Senthil kumaran, (Pediatric Dentist) has closely associated himself with many neonatologists, pediatricians and gynecologists in the city for their referrals in management of Children with Special health Care Needs (SHCN).
We educate health care providers, parents, caretakers, teachers and ancillary organizations about the management of oral health care needs for children rather to provide specific treatment for their oral conditions.
These individuals may be at an increased risk for oral diseases throughout their lifetime.
