The Center for Pediatric Dentistry provides expert, caring treatment for children with special needs through age 20. Our dentists and staff fully understand the demands of special-needs care, and we welcome these patients and their families.Social stories were originally used by children with autism and related conditions, but can be helpful in explaining dental or medical procedures to all children. The social story demonstrates an activity in pictures so that it is easier for a child to understand. Working together with experts from the Seattle Children’s Hospital Autism Center we have created a social story for visiting The Center for Pediatric Dentistry. This story was based upon the Healthy Smiles for Autism document available free from the National Museum of Dentistry
