Advanced dentistry expertise and technologies meet “old-fashioned” home care for the best patient experience

At Royal Dental Practice, we celebrate the wisdom of our valued senior patients. We also celebrate the diversity of our patient base. The valued individuals and families we partner with from West Hills, Los Angeles, California, come from all walks of life. These varied backgrounds, lifestyles, and preferences enrich the communities we call “home.” 

To properly care for all sorts of patients, our dentist, Dr. Roya Shoffet, offers an array of services that cannot be found elsewhere. Notably, she provides mobile or home dentistry. Yes, that’s right – we can visit your home and provide the same level of quality care that you would receive from our office. 

This offering is appropriate for many types of individuals and their families, including: 

• Older folks who may be challenged in their ability to get around 
• Seniors who no longer drive 
• Individuals with certain health conditions that can affect their transportation options 
• Individuals in assisted living facilities and other senior living communities and arrangements 
• Busy caregivers with myriad competing commitments to children, parents, and work 

Additionally, Dr. Shoffet has special expertise in caring for the needs of patients with cognitive challenges. She knows how to sensitively, patiently, and empathetically treat patients with serious comorbidities like Alzheimer’s and dementia. How you approach caring for these patients can either add to their confusion and fear or help to put them at ease. In these cases, the home option is ideal to ensure their complete trust and comfort. When patients are relaxed, it is also easier for us to treat them efficiently and safely. Fidgeting is the enemy of safe, predictable, and speedy treatments. 

Not all services may be performed from a patient’s bedside or the comfort of their home. The most appropriate services to bring to you or a family member include exams, screenings, cleanings, denture “maintenance,” digitally scanning your teeth, and other proactive, routine diagnostic care. We have tools like a portable X-ray machine that makes these offsite, on-the-go services possible! We also provide some emergency and restorative dentistry services on a case-by-case basis. 

When at-home dentistry isn’t possible due to the nature of the patient’s needs and recommended services, never fear! 

Our team can arrange safe, reliable, and hassle-free transportation to our West Hills, Los Angeles, CA office. Call Royal Dental Practice at (818) 334-6655 today to find out more and to schedule a home visit.
