About

Accessible Dental Services (ADS) is a specialized dental care provider focusing on individuals with intellectual disabilities, autism, and behavioral health needs. Founded in 2006 by Passavant Memorial Homes, ADS offers comprehensive routine and restorative dental treatments, including both non-sedation and IV sedation options, across multiple clinic locations and via a mobile dental unit in Pennsylvania. They prioritize compassionate care, accessibility, and affordability for their unique patient population, often collaborating with organizations like the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine for training. Detailed introduction: Accessible Dental Services (ADS) is a distinctive healthcare organization dedicated to providing high-quality, specialized dental care for individuals with intellectual disabilities, autism, and behavioral health needs. Established in 2006 as part of the Passavant Memorial Homes Family of Services (PMHFOS), a non-profit human service organization founded in 1895, ADS was created to address the significant unmet need for dental care within this specific patient population. ADS offers a comprehensive range of dental services, including routine check-ups, cleanings, and restorative treatments for both dentulous and edentulous patients. Recognizing the unique challenges faced by their patients, ADS provides both non-sedation and intravenous (IV) sedation options. The IV sedation is administered by a dedicated team of anesthesiologists and nurses within their clinic locations, ensuring patient safety and comfort for those who may require it for a complete examination and treatment. The organization operates out of multiple clinic locations across Pennsylvania, including Murrysville, Rochester, Mt. Pleasant, Greentree, and Laporte. In addition to their fixed clinics, ADS also utilizes a mobile dental unit (MDU). This MDU is designed to be fully accessible, including a lift for wheelchair access, and brings essential dental services directly to patients within their local communities and partner sites, overcoming transportation barriers that many individuals with disabilities face. A core tenet of Accessible Dental Services is its commitment to compassionate and understanding care. Their professional team, comprising dentists, oral surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, and dental support staff, are experienced in working with individuals with diverse needs, recognizing potential fears, anxieties, and discomforts associated with dental procedures. They strive to create a safe and secure environment for all patients. Beyond direct patient care, ADS is also actively involved in training future dental professionals. Through partnerships, notably with the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, third- and fourth-year dental students complete rotations at ADS. This initiative aims to equip graduating dentists with the skills and confidence to comfortably treat individuals with intellectual disabilities, autism, and behavioral health needs, thereby expanding access to specialized care more broadly. Accessible Dental Services is committed to being accessible and affordable, accepting a wide range of dental insurance carriers, including Medicaid and Medicare plans. They also accommodate emergency appointments and referrals. As a non-profit entity under the umbrella of Passavant Memorial Homes Family of Services, their mission is deeply rooted in providing essential support services to enhance the quality of life, choice, and independence for individuals with intellectual disabilities, autism, and behavioral health needs.
