San Francisco, CA — November 17, 2025 — Itani Dental, a leading dental care provider in San Francisco, proudly announces the expansion of its Special Care Dentistry program—bringing comprehensive, high-quality dental services directly to patients who are homebound, have mobility limitations, or require specialized accommodations due to medical complexity.

Many individuals with developmental disabilities, neurocognitive conditions, advanced age, or severe dental anxiety face substantial obstacles when accessing oral healthcare. Itani Dental’s enhanced house call model overcomes these challenges by delivering full-scope dental care in the comfort and safety of patients’ homes, assisted living centers, or hospital environments.

Key Features of Itani Dental’s Special Care / House Call Dentistry:

  • Comprehensive Care at Home or in Assisted Settings — Patients can receive exams, X-rays, cleanings, and preventive services without the need to travel.
  • Full In-Home Treatment Capabilities — Mobile care includes fillings, extractions, dentures, night guards, and other restorative treatments.
  • Tailored Sedation Options — For patients with anxiety, movement limitations, or complex needs, sedation choices include nitrous oxide, oral sedation, deep conscious IV sedation, and general anesthesia in collaboration with hospital-based teams.
  • Geriatric & Special Needs Expertise — Designed especially for older adults with diminished mobility and individuals with autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, cerebral palsy, or severe phobias.
  • Dental Clearance for Medical Procedures — The team provides pre-surgical dental evaluations and coordinates closely with hospitals including CPMC Sutter Health, Kaiser San Francisco, Kaiser Santa Clara, and Kaiser San Jose.
  • Accessible Insurance & Transparent Fees — The practice accepts multiple PPO plans and offers fee-for-service options. A travel fee applies for visits within San Francisco and a 50-mile radius.

“Many vulnerable patients miss out on essential dental care simply because entering a dental clinic is too difficult or medically risky,” said Dr. Itani, founder of Itani Dental. “By bringing our team and equipment to them, we aim to remove barriers and provide dignity, comfort, and excellent oral health outcomes.”

Why This Matters

Oral health is closely connected to overall wellness. Untreated infections and dental disease can worsen systemic conditions—especially in medically fragile or immunocompromised individuals. Itani Dental’s house call services help close critical care gaps, reduce preventable hospitalizations, and enhance quality of life for patients who might otherwise forgo treatment.

How to Access the Service

Patients, caregivers, or referring healthcare professionals can request a house call through Itani Dental’s website or by calling 415-685-0011. The initial in-home visit includes a comprehensive exam, consultation, X-rays (as needed), a cleaning (if applicable), and customized treatment recommendations.
