Accessibility Statement

We want every patient to be able to use this website and our office. This page states the standard we build to, what we have done, what is still outstanding, and how to reach a person if something gets in your way.
A full WCAG 2.2 AA audit has not yet been completed for the rebuilt site. This statement will be updated with the audit date and findings before launch.
Our standard

We build to WCAG 2.2 Level AA

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. We aim for conformance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA across 559dentist.com, and we treat accessibility defects as functional defects rather than enhancements.

Our office

Our Fresno office at 3616 West Shaw Avenue has accessible parking and step-free access to the treatment areas. If you need assistance entering, transferring, or being seated, tell us when you book and we will plan the visit around it.

What we have done

Measures built into this website

Keyboard operability
Every interactive control is reachable and operable with a keyboard, in a logical order, with a visible focus indicator and a skip-to-content link on each page.
Structure and landmarks
Pages use real headings, lists, and landmark regions so screen readers can navigate by structure rather than by guesswork.
Contrast and text sizing
Body and interface text is chosen to meet AA contrast ratios, and layouts reflow without loss of content when text is enlarged or the window is narrow.
Forms and labels
Form fields carry persistent visible labels, errors are described in text rather than by color alone, and no form relies on a timed interaction.
Text alternatives
Images that carry meaning get descriptive alternative text; decorative images are hidden from assistive technology.
Plain language
Clinical pages are written to be understood without dental training, and no page depends on hover, drag, or precise pointer movement to reach information.
Known limitations

Photography and video

Site photography is being replaced with real images of our office and team. Alternative text and, where video is used, captions and a transcript are added as each asset is finalized.

Third-party platforms

Online scheduling, patient forms, the patient portal, and online payment are provided by outside vendors and open in their own systems. We do not control their code. If you hit a barrier in one of them, call us at (559) 271-8400 and a team member will complete the task with you by phone or in person.

PDF documents

Older downloadable PDF forms are being replaced by accessible web forms. Until that is complete, we will complete any form with you at the office or over the phone.

Getting help another way

If the website is not workable for you

By phone
Call (559) 271-8400 during office hours and we will book, reschedule, answer questions, or take your information directly.
In the office
Ask at the front desk for help with forms, large-print copies of documents, or a quiet place to complete paperwork.
In your language
We provide care in English, Español, ਪੰਜਾਬੀ, हिन्दी, and اردو. Tell us your preferred language when you book.
Feedback and enforcement

Report a barrier

If you cannot access something on this site or in our office, tell us what you were trying to do, the page or task involved, and how we should reach you. Call (559) 271-8400, or write to Aesthetic Edge Dental, 3616 West Shaw Avenue, Fresno, CA 93711. We aim to respond within three business days and to fix confirmed barriers as quickly as we can.

If you are not satisfied

You may raise concerns under the Americans with Disabilities Act with the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division at ada.gov. We would prefer the chance to resolve it with you first.

Status of this statement

This statement covers 559dentist.com. It will carry a self-assessment date and audit findings once the pre-launch WCAG 2.2 AA review is complete.
