Superb Dental Care Coupled with Unwavering Patient Care

General Dentistry Fairfield

At Brick Walk Dental Care , we are happy to provide general dentistry to patients in the Fairfield, Connecticut area, as we believe that preventive care should lie at the heart of every dental office. Though we believe that the benefits of cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry treatments are numerous, such procedures can often be avoided with regular general dentistry treatment. For this reason, we offer a full range of procedures to help our patients maintain their oral health.

If you are interested in regular cleanings and checkups, and are looking for a qualified and experienced general dentist in the Fairfield area, Dr. Ben Schultz can help. A 1985 graduate of the Georgetown University School of Dentistry and a Master of the Academy of General Dentistry, Dr. Schultz has the knowledge and practical skills needed to provide superb care. To schedule a consultation with Dr. Schultz, or to learn more about the general dentistry treatments we offer, contact our Fairfield dental office today.

Dental Cleanings and Checkups

There is perhaps no more fundamental or effective dental treatment than regular dental checkups and cleanings. With regular checkups and cleanings, we can thoroughly examine your mouth and analyze your oral health, as well as proactively treat issues or complications that if left untreated could result in a degradation of the gums or teeth. To aid him in his analysis, Dr. Schultz utilizes a DIAGNOdent® laser to search for cavities in the teeth, and he performs a comprehensive oral cancer screening during each and every patient checkup. If you would like to maintain the health and beauty of your smile, these general dentistry treatments are essential.

Gum Disease Therapy

We offer a range of periodontal treatment options to meet our patients' needs, including gum disease therapy. Periodontal disease can have a severe impact on your oral health, and treating it as soon as possible is extremely important to ensure positive results. Caused by bacterial infection and characterized by inflammation, soreness, swelling, and bleeding of the gums, gum disease can result in a degradation of the gingival (gums), bone recession and, in severe cases, tooth loss.

Tooth Extraction

Tooth extraction may be required for a variety of reasons: because a tooth has been severely damaged or is severely decayed and cannot be saved; because the teeth are crowded as a result of malocclusion (misalignment of the jaw); or because a tooth needs to be removed for a dental restoration, such as a dental bridge or dental implant. Rest assured, if you need to have a tooth extracted, Dr. Schultz and our team of dental professionals will take care to ensure your comfort and satisfaction. We are dedicated to pain-free dentistry at Brick Walk Dental Care and utilize oral sedation when necessary for the benefit of our patients.

Oral Surgery

As a practicing dentist with more than 20 years of experience in general dentistry, Dr. Schultz is uniquely familiar with oral surgery. You can trust he will provide you with the highest standard of care if you require a tooth extraction, root canal therapy, or other surgical procedure. Upon your initial consultation, Dr. Schultz and our staff will discuss your procedure with you in detail so that you are able to make an informed decision regarding treatment and have realistic expectations for the procedure and recovery process.
