Accessibility Statement

Effective Date: May 1, 2026

Birdwell & Mutlak Dentistry is committed to ensuring that its website, birdwelldentist.com, is accessible to people with disabilities. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and in doing so adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines.

Our Conformance Goal

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.

Measures We Have Taken

To support accessibility, Birdwell & Mutlak Dentistry has taken the following measures:

  • Included alt text on meaningful images throughout the site.
  • Ensured color contrast ratios meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA minimums (4.5:1 for body text, 3:1 for large text and UI components).
  • Used semantic HTML landmarks (header, nav, main, footer) to support screen reader navigation.
  • Ensured all interactive elements are keyboard-navigable and have visible focus indicators.
  • Provided descriptive link text that conveys purpose out of context.
  • Ensured form inputs include associated labels.
  • Avoided content that flashes more than three times per second.
  • Used a logical heading hierarchy (H1 → H2 → H3) on each page.

Despite our best efforts, some areas of this website may not yet fully conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We are continuously working to identify and address accessibility barriers. Known areas we are actively improving include:

  • Third-party embedded content (such as scheduling widgets or maps) may not fully conform to accessibility standards. We encourage affected users to contact us for an equivalent alternative.
