At YOUR DENTIST Advanced Dental & Maxillo-Facial Centre, we are committed to ensuring that our website, services, and digital content are accessible to all people, including individuals with disabilities. We believe in equal access to information and healthcare services, and we continually work to improve the user experience for everyone.

Accessibility Statement

  • Our website has been designed with accessibility in mind, following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level where possible.

  • We aim to make our website usable by people with diverse abilities, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments.

  • Accessibility is an ongoing effort — we regularly update and improve our website and digital content to ensure inclusivity.

1. Our Commitment to Accessibility

To support accessibility, we have implemented:

  • ✅ Responsive Design – optimized for mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.

  • ✅ Readable Text – clear fonts, adequate contrast, and scalable text sizes.

  • ✅ Alternative Text (Alt-Text) – descriptive text for images to support screen readers.

  • ✅ Keyboard Navigation – navigation possible using a keyboard for users with limited mobility.

  • ✅ Structured Headings – content organized with headings for screen reader compatibility.

  • ✅ Consistent Navigation – menus and layouts designed for ease of use.

  • ✅ Video Accessibility – many of our YouTube videos include subtitles/captions or descriptive explanations.

2. Accessibility Features of Our Website

Our website is designed to be compatible with most major screen readers, including JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver, to support users with visual impairments.

3. Screen Reader Compatibility

This website is best viewed on modern browsers such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari.
Older browsers or devices may not display all features correctly, but we strive to maintain functional compatibility where possible.

4. Browser & Device Compatibility

We acknowledge that some parts of our website and content may not yet be fully accessible:

  • Older YouTube videos may not have subtitles or captions.

  • Some images, especially older uploads, may lack alt-text.

  • Certain PDF files or third-party documents may not be optimized for screen readers.

  • External platforms (e.g., YouTube, Google Maps, WhatsApp) have their own accessibility features and limitations, which are beyond our control.

5. Limitations & Areas for Improvement

Beyond the website, YOUR DENTIST also strives to provide accessibility in our physical clinic and services:

  • 🚪 Wheelchair-accessible entry and seating (where clinic infrastructure allows).

  • 🦻 Clear communication methods — staff explain procedures in English and Telugu.

  • 📄 Consent forms and documents are available in English and Telugu for better understanding.

  • 🧾 Option to request large-print or simplified versions of treatment instructions.

6. Accessibility in Our Clinic & Services

If you are unable to access any content on our website or digital platforms, please contact us. We will provide the information in an alternative accessible format, such as:

  • Large-print documents

  • Audio explanation

  • Simplified written explanations

  • Direct consultation via phone/WhatsApp

7. Accessible Alternatives Commitment

Our accessibility efforts are guided by:

  • The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.

  • The Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 (India).

  • International best practices, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, USA) and the Equality Act (UK).

While not all of these laws apply directly to us, we follow them as a matter of ethical best practice.

8. Compliance with Laws & Standards

We understand that accessibility is a continuous journey. Therefore:

  • We periodically audit our website for accessibility issues.

  • We update features (such as alt-text, captions, forms) based on user feedback.

  • We explore new tools and technologies to make our services more inclusive.

9. Continuous Improvement

Our website links to and integrates with external platforms such as YouTube, Google Maps, and WhatsApp. These platforms manage their own accessibility features. We are not responsible for accessibility barriers on third-party platforms but will assist patients in accessing essential information through alternative formats when requested.

10. Third-Party Responsibility

We welcome feedback from patients, visitors, and users who face challenges while accessing our website or services.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier or need information in an alternative format, please contact us:
