Dentistry For Special People - Cherry Hill

I need to leave a review because they continue to come up in my search for a decent dental group that can accommodate my child with autism. We left this practice because the hygienists and Dr. both alike had terrible bedside manner. They were very impatient. They didnt take the time to explain or talk my son through anything that you would normally do with someone whom has autism. They were very pushy had an attitude no compassion patience and this happened every time we went. I threw in the towel when I finally took my younger daughter here and they treated her the same way. I wouldnt ever recommend this practice to anyone with a child on the spectrum or rather any child for that matter. Seeing a dentist should not be traumatic.

Dr Sayany and his team were great to work with for my sons lip and tongue tie. He took the time to explain everything in great detail and make sure we felt good about the procedure. He also does not do the procedure the same day like some others Ive heard of. He wants to make sure you and the baby are properly prepared which I think helped make the process smoother. We took our son to get bodywork done before the release to loosen any tension and worked with our lactation consultant. Its less than 2 weeks and my son is doing better than I could imagine I didnt think he was struggling as much as he was prior to the release. The difference in his ability to open his mouth and use his tongue is shocking. The first day he latched immediately without issues the next few days werent as smooth but after about a week or so we found our rhythm. Our pediatrician wasnt concerned about his weight gain or the ties but Im so glad I followed through with getting him evaluated with Dr Sayany. His weight was continuing to drop and since the procedure hes easily gained 1lb in the prior month he only gained 12 lb AND hes sleeping so much better 7-9 hr stretches at night. Thank you Dr Sayany

No empathy at all for a clearly terrified patient. They reinforced medical anxiety and actively made it worse. Better local options exist.

This place is without a doubt the best I had found for my autistic son I was for long time trying to find a Doctor that understand the condition of my little one and I found it at Dentistry for Special People. Since the receptionist to nurses and Doctors give you a peace of mind.Thank you my Lord Jesus for putting these wonderful angels in our way.

The staff and dentist were all very nice. It was my autistic daughters first successful dentist appointment. She isnt the most cooperative child and they knew what approach to take and handled everything very professionally. Were so glad to have found a facility with an experienced and patient staff. I will be switching all of my children to this practice and this is a 45 minute drive for us

What a great experience We are visiting the area from out of state when a dental emergency struck. Dr. Robin and his team fit us in and made the experience as pleasant as possible. He communicated very well with my 7 year old that had high anxiety around dental visits. Can not recommend enough

This is the most AMAZING pediatric dentist office that Ive ever been to My daughter has been a patient here for years now. The whole team is phenomenal This office is the best of the best Top notch service and care for childrens dentistry. Thank you Dr. Maya Thompson for all of your concern and help you are the very best I wont soon forget what you have done for my daughter.

I decided to try this place out because I have a special needs child. He had to get fillings because of his cavities. My son was very nervous from the beginning he was given gas to calm him down it did not work. He was given the needle so he wouldnt feel anything but he was already worked up. So instead of waiting for my son to calm down and not move it was given to him while he was moving. Meanwhile my son is screaming on the top of his lungs. They continued to do the filling I could tell the numbing did not work as well because he was still upset and trying to move there hands out of his mouth. My son was not the easiest I must say he did end up closing his mouth and biting so he got yelled at and told to not do that again while his mouth was kind of shoved. The doctor has the nerve to say if you would shut up I could get done quicker. First off very unprofessional Dr. G the child is already upset like that would make it any better.Second if you dont have the patience to work with special needs kids then dont work with a child with special needs. If you dont have the patience your in the wrong profession. I will never come back to this place ever again.

Such a great experience at this practice My 5 week old daughter needed treatment of her tongue lip and buccal ties. Dr. Sayany spent 2 hours before we even committed to the procedures with us explaining why the ties were affecting her negatively how she would benefit from the release and how the process worked as well as post-procedure care. She is now 5 months old and doing incredibly well we will be bringing her back at 12 months for her first official dentist visit. My only complaint is that Im too old to see Dr. Sayany myself

This office is absolutely PHENOMENAL My daughter is 6 years old and not very fond of the dentist. We had 2 failed attempts with another pediatric dentist to get cavities filled. They recommended sedation but I found this office and thought we would give it a try. I am so happy I did. Dr. Maya is AMAZING. I dont know how she did it but the cavities were filled in a half an hour not a single tear My daughter was actually giggling while having the work done She wouldnt even get on the chair at our previous dentist. The assistants and office staff were also super friendly. Its clear that really care about the children they serve. AMAZING
