Watch Dr. Jacob Dent explain how caregiver training, familiar tools, and gradual practice can help individuals become more comfortable with daily oral care and routine dental visits.
A Simple, Structured Approach to Dental Desensitization
Learn the DDS Approach
Caregivers learn practical strategies for positioning, brushing, flossing, oral care, and gradually introducing common dental tools and sensations.
Practice with the DDS Kit
Individuals use the DDS Kit at home to become more familiar with dental instruments, routines, and sensory experiences through gradual, repeated practice. Our DDS Kit is available here.
Prepare for Dental Visits
Caregivers and providers build on that progress to help individuals approach routine dental visits with greater comfort, confidence, and readiness.
