Special Needs Dentistry in Illinois

If you're the parent or caregiver of a special-needs child, you know how difficult a trip to the dentist can be for both you and your child. Whether you have a toddler or a preteen, you can be confident that our compassionate St. Charles dental team is committed to working with you to care for your child.

Behavioral Special Needs

Is your child autistic or do they have ADHD? Don't be concerned! Smyles and Company Family Dentistry of St. Charles understands how awkward and uncomfortable it can be to explain your child's behavior to someone who does not know them well.


We have many patients with behavioral needs, and our patient staff is eager to assist you in tailoring our dental care services to your child's specific needs.

Medical and Developmental Special Needs

Certain medical, physical, and developmental needs involve more attention than others, particularly when it comes to customizing dental care.


Dr. Villa and our St. Charles dental team is equipped to handle the attention to detail and personable care that your family deserves, whether you have a loved one with diabetes, Down syndrome, or cerebral palsy.

Extra Care for Exceptionally Special Patients

When you call our dental office, please let us know if you require any special accommodations. We will work with you to schedule the appointment at a time when your child is most relaxed (usually first thing in the morning.)


If it helps, you can come to our office before the appointment to take your child on a tour to meet the staff.


The more information you provide us, the better we will be able to serve your family. You know your child better than anyone else. As our dentist and staff listen to this information, we can adjust the way we care for your child to be as positive as possible.
