Answers to Commonly Asked Questions...
What payment options do you offer?
High-quality dental care isn't inexpensive, but it is affordable. Because we want you to attain a healthy, beautiful smile, we offer several payment options. You can pay with cash, check, or credit card. We also offer extended payment programs, several of which allow you to pay for your care over the course of a year with no interest.
If you have dental insurance, we'll help you obtain your maximum benefits and will gladly file your forms as part of our service.
How does the doctor keep up to date on dental techniques?
Dr. Schultz is committed to enhancing his skills and keeping abreast of dental innovations. Since his graduation from dental school, he's taken more than 2000 hours of continuing education. He also earned the designation of Master of the Academy of General Dentistry, a distinction enjoyed by only 80 dentists in Connecticut and by only 2,100 dentists in the entire United States.
What precautions do you take to ensure patient safety?
We follow strict guidelines set by the CDC and OSHA. Our practices include sterilizing reusable instruments in an autoclave, then sealing them for the next use; disinfecting treatment rooms between patient visits; and using disposable products when possible. We always wear disposable gloves during exams and treatment, for your safety.
What are my options to replace missing teeth?
We offer bridges, partials, full dentures, and dental implants. Learn more about these options on our Services page, then call for a consultation. With digital X-rays, photos taken with an intraoral camera, and a thorough assessment of your smile, Dr. Schultz can help you decide which replacement option is best for you.
How can I improve my smile?
That sounds like an easy question to answer, but it isn't! Your smile is unique, and we won't compromise your individuality with smile enhancements. Smile design dentistry done right requires an initial consultation in which we'll discuss your goals, preferences, and options for care. Generally speaking, we may suggest veneers, teeth whitening, all-white restorations, and/or replacement teeth. Invisalign clear braces may also be involved. After your comprehensive evaluation and consultation, we'll present a treatment plan for your new smile. We offer digital imaging for smile previews, as well.
My teeth are stained. Can you help?
Yes. We offer teeth whitening solutions to brighten teeth dramatically at home or in our Fairfield dental office. See our teeth-whitening specials here. Call for your appointment today!
