Children with special needs
Children with special needs often face a higher risk of oral health concerns, which makes specialized dental care essential. At Apple Tree Pediatric Dentistry in Lawrenceville, GA, Dr. Jeni Kong and Dr. Milee Kim are experienced in providing compassionate, personalized care for children with a wide range of medical, developmental, and sensory needs. Both doctors prioritize minimally invasive techniques whenever possible, helping to create an environment that is non-intimidating, supportive, and even fun. Their goal is to ensure every child has the opportunity to grow up with a healthy, confident smile.
Some of the children we care for include those with:
Autism spectrum disorder
Sensory processing disorder
Down syndrome
Cerebral palsy
Developmental delays
Congenital or acquired medical conditions
Sensory Room
To make dental visits more comfortable, Apple Tree Pediatric Dentistry proudly offers a special sensory room. This space is designed to support very young children as well as older children with sensory sensitivities. Parents are encouraged to request the sensory room when scheduling their child’s next appointment with Dr. Kong or Dr. Kim, ensuring that each visit feels safe, calm, and tailored to their needs.
