Accessibility statement
Our commitment to making this website usable for every patient, and the standards we follow to get there.
Hingham Dentistry is committed to continuously improving access to our goods and services for individuals with disabilities. We are working to ensure this website is usable and accessible to all visitors.
UserWay accessibility widget
We have partnered with UserWay to provide an AI-powered accessibility widget on every page of our website. Look for the accessibility icon in the bottom-left corner of the screen to open the widget and adjust display and navigation settings.
Features available through the widget include:
- Screen reader and keyboard navigation enhancements
- Contrast, color, and saturation adjustments
- Text size, spacing, and font changes (including dyslexia-friendly fonts)
- Content highlighting, reading guides, and page structure tools
- Animation and motion controls
Standards we follow
Our goal is to conform to the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. In addition to the UserWay widget, our site uses semantic HTML landmarks, a skip-to-content link for keyboard users, descriptive link and image text, and visible focus styles throughout.
Known limitations
UserWay is a third-party tool. While it greatly enhances accessibility, it may not address every individual need or assistive technology configuration. Some embedded third-party content, such as the Google Maps location embed, may not fully conform to WCAG 2.1 AA; we provide a text link to open directions in Google Maps as an alternative.
Some downloadable documents linked from our site, including the new patient forms and other PDFs available on the Patient Resources page, may not be fully accessible to every assistive technology. If you need any of these documents in an alternative format, please contact us and we will be happy to provide the information in a way that works for you.
