About Us

Welcome to Neurodentistry, where dental care meets compassion and understanding.

At Neurodentistry, we are passionate about revolutionising dental care settings to better serve the unique needs of neurodivergent individuals, including individuals with mental health conditions and learning differences.

Our initiative is firmly grounded in advocating for neurodiversity within the field of dentistry. This entails not only learning how to deliver personalised dental care to neurodivergent patients but also providing support to neurodivergent dental professionals. We aim to educate dental professionals to recognise and address the distinct needs of neurodivergent patients with both compassion and expertise. But our commitment extends beyond patient care – we are equally committed to empowering neurodivergent dental professionals, fostering an environment where they can thrive and excel in their profession, ensuring their success and invaluable contributions to dentistry.

Our mission is threefold:

1. Educating dental professionals on delivering optimal dental care for neurodivergent patients, addressing their unique needs with empathy and expertise.
2. Empowering neurodivergent patients by enhancing their understanding of dental procedures and experiences, ensuring they feel informed and supported.
3. Cultivating an inclusive environment where neurodivergent dental students, dental staff, and dental professionals can network, thrive, and flourish through benefit from free membership.

Through these efforts, we aspire to elevate the dental experience by fostering education and awareness within the dental community.

Neurodentistry functions as a central resource hub, offering information on neurodivergence in dentistry. By primarily signposting valuable information through consolidating a vast array of resources in one accessible location, it acts as an open learning platform, collaborating with organisations, charities, companies, and other stakeholders. This collaborative approach provides dental professionals with essential tools, support, and resources, empowering them to confidently and effectively navigate neurodiversity in dentistry. Through education and awareness, we endeavor to foster inclusivity where every individual – whether patient or dental professional – feels understood, appreciated, valued, and respected.

Join us on this transformative journey as we pave the way for a more inclusive and compassionate future in dental care. Together, we can make a meaningful difference, one smile at a time.
