Accessibility Statement
M&M Pediatric Dentistry is committed to making our website, our office, and our care available to every patient and family, including children and adults with disabilities. We believe every person deserves to be treated with dignity and to receive the same quality of service, and we work continuously to remove barriers that would prevent that.
Our Commitment and the Standards We Follow
We design, build, and maintain this website with the goal of meeting the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium. WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the technical standard referenced by federal disability regulations, and we use it as our benchmark for text alternatives, keyboard operability, color contrast, form labeling, and compatibility with screen readers and other assistive technology.
Our commitment reflects our obligations under:
- The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which requires places of public accommodation, including dental offices, to provide equal access to their goods and services;
- Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and its implementing regulations for recipients of federal financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services;
- Indiana law prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability in public accommodations and in the provision of health care services; and
- Any other applicable federal, state, and local accessibility requirements.
Accessibility is an ongoing effort rather than a finished project. We review our site periodically, test new pages and features before they are published, and address issues as we identify them.
Accessibility Tools on This Site
We provide an accessibility tool that makes it easier to browse and read the content on our website. It offers adjustments such as larger text, higher contrast, and other display and navigation options. You can open it by selecting the Accessibility Menu link at the bottom of any page.
This tool supplements the accessibility built into our site. It is not a substitute for it, and it does not replace your own assistive technology.
Tips for a More Accessible Browsing Experience
If you have trouble reading or navigating web pages, your computer, phone, and browser include built-in settings that may help. Common adjustments include:
- Having your device read web pages aloud
- Navigating with the keyboard instead of a mouse
- Increasing text size
- Magnifying all or part of the screen
- Changing background and text colors
- Making the mouse pointer larger and easier to see
The U.S. Social Security Administration publishes step-by-step instructions for these settings on its accessibility website.
If you are looking for alternatives to a mouse and keyboard, speech recognition software allows you to move around a web page or application and enter text using your voice. Several options are available for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, including features already built into those operating systems.
Communication Access in Our Office
Accessibility does not stop at our website. If you or your child needs an accommodation to receive care in our office, please tell us when you schedule your appointment so we have time to arrange it. Depending on the need, we can provide auxiliary aids and services such as qualified sign language interpreters, assistive listening support, written materials in large print or another accessible format, or additional time and a quieter setting for patients with sensory sensitivities. There is no charge to you for these accommodations.
Content We Do Not Control
Some features of this site may link to or embed content provided by third parties, such as online scheduling, patient forms, payment processing, or maps. We choose vendors with accessibility in mind and ask them to meet recognized standards, but we do not control how their content is built. If you encounter a barrier in any of these tools, contact us and we will help you complete the task another way, including by phone or in person.
Tell Us About a Problem
If a disability and the format of our web pages together interfere with your ability to use any content on this site, or if you need information in a different format, please contact us via the information provided on this site.
To help us respond in the way that is most useful to you, please describe:
1. The nature of the accessibility problem;
2. The web address (URL) of the page or material involved;
3. The format in which you would prefer to receive the material, such as accessible electronic text, large print, braille, or audio; and
4. How we can reach you.
We will acknowledge your message, route it to the right person on our team, and work with you to provide the information or service you need. If we cannot resolve the issue right away, we will tell you what we are doing and when you can expect an update.
Formal Complaints
You also have the right to file a complaint with a government agency. Complaints about disability discrimination by a health care provider that receives federal financial assistance may be filed with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights, at ocrportal.hhs.gov. Complaints under the ADA may be filed with the U.S. Department of Justice at ada.gov. You may also contact Indiana Civil Rights Commission.
