Dental Services in a Compassionate and Caring Environment
Tufts Special Care Dental Clinics provide comprehensive dental care for adults and children with developmental disabilities living in Massachusetts. Two of Tufts Clinics are proudly instituted at Seven Hills locations. The clinic located at Seven Hills Pediatric Center in Groton, MA, is a collaboration between Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, the Richard and Susan Smith Family Foundation, and Seven Hills. The second Clinic is located at the Seven Hills ASPiRE building in Worcester, MA. Both Special Care Clinics are accepting new patients of all ages with disabilities.

The team brings understanding, knowledge, and patience to people who might have increased anxiety and/or sensory issues that make dental care difficult to access. The Clinics boast state-of-the-art dental equipment, specifically designed to accommodate patients with disabilities and their needs, ensuring a comfortable, welcoming environment.
