Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment

Taylor Made Smiles of Texas dedicates itself to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. The dental practice continually improves the user experience across its website for all visitors by applying relevant accessibility standards. By prioritizing inclusive design, Taylor Made Smiles of Texas works to remove digital barriers so every person can navigate and interact with online content effectively.

Conformance Status

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines helps make the web more user friendly for all people.

Measures We've Taken

Taylor Made Smiles of Texas has implemented comprehensive website accessibility measures aligned with WCAG AA standards. These measures include semantic HTML structure, skip-navigation links, logical heading hierarchy, full keyboard navigation with visible focus indicators, sufficient color contrast ratios, descriptive alternative text for images, accessible form labels with ARIA attributes, reduced-motion support, responsive design down to 320px width, proper language declaration, and minimum 44×44px touch targets on mobile devices.

• Semantic HTML: We use proper semantic elements (nav, main, header, footer, section, article) throughout the site to provide clear structure for assistive technologies.
• Skip Navigation: A “Skip to main content” link is the first focusable element on every page, allowing keyboard users to bypass the navigation.
• Heading Hierarchy: Each page has exactly one H1 heading and a logical heading hierarchy (H2–H6) that never skips levels.
• Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements are reachable and operable via keyboard. Visible focus indicators are present on all interactive elements.
• Color Contrast: Text throughout the site meets WCAG AA minimum contrast ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
• Alternative Text: All meaningful images include descriptive alt text. Decorative images use empty alt attributes.
• Form Accessibility: All form inputs have associated label elements, aria-required attributes for required fields, and aria-describedby attributes linking inputs to their error messages.
• ARIA Attributes: aria-expanded, aria-controls, aria-current, and aria-live regions are used appropriately throughout interactive components.
• Reduced Motion: All animations respect the prefers-reduced-motion media query. When reduced motion is preferred, all animations are disabled.
• Responsive Design: The site is fully responsive and usable at all screen sizes, starting at 320px width.
• Language: The html element declares lang=“en” to help screen readers use the correct language profile.
• Touch Targets: All interactive elements meet the minimum 44×44px touch target size on mobile devices.
