The Koppel Special Care Dentistry Center at Loma Linda University School of Dentistry provides safe, compassionate dental care for patients who need specialized support. Our center is a Joint Commission–accredited and CMS-certified ambulatory surgery center, meeting high standards for quality and patient safety.

We specialize in treating patients with developmental disabilities, special needs, and young children who may not be able to receive care in a traditional dental setting. Our experienced team is trained to deliver care in a supportive, respectful environment tailored to each patient’s unique needs.

All treatment is provided under general anesthesia, allowing patients to receive comprehensive dental care comfortably and without distress. In most cases, complete dental treatment can be completed in a single visit, reducing the need for multiple appointments.
