Hi, I have a 12 yr old son with Autism. It is hard to get him in the dentist chair. We were seeing a dentist at St. Louis Childrens Hospital but the last time we went he was very abrupt and harsh with my son. I will not be taking him back there. We live in Fulton, MO and am trying to find a dentist nearby that is good with Autistic children. Any suggestions???? I need help!!!!
I'm not sure what you mean by harsh so this May or may not work for you but my children see a pediatric dentist in St. Charles County. He is great with kids but he is firm. He lets them know that he understands it is something they don't want to do but it is something that they have to do for their own well being. Let me know if you would like his name and number.
