Dr. Roger Schultz has called San Antonio his home since 1967 and has been practicing at the same location at 5015 DeZavala Rd. as a general dentist since 1999. As a graduate of the University of Texas Health Science Center Dental School in San Antonio, Dr. Schultz continues to offer his patients the highest standards in dental care.
High Standards
A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve. We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use restorative and cosmetic dentistry to achieve your optimal dental health. Should a dental emergency occur, we make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.
Education & Prevention
Dr. Schultz graduated from the class of 1999 at the UTHSC of San Antonio Dental School. He brings the same philosophy he learned there to care and treat his patients at his practice. As a practice, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”. That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary.
We also know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease. Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health. A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.
Uncompromised Safety
Infection control in our office is also very important to us. To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and cross contamination processes using standards recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC).
Training & Expertise
As a graduate of the University of Texas Health Science Center Dental School, Doctor Schultz was trained in one of the best dental schools in the country, and continues his education with ongoing annual training programs as required by the American Dental Association. In fact, our entire staff attends several training events throughout the year to keep up with the latest technology and trends in dentistry. We attend dental lectures, meetings, and dental conventions to stay informed of new techniques, the latest products, and the newest equipment that a modern dental office can utilize to provide state-of-the-art dental care.
Also, being members of various professional dental associations such as the American Dental Assoc. , the Texas Dental Assoc. and the San Antonio District Dental Society, helps us to stay abreast of the changes and recommendations for our profession.
Dr. Schultz is a trained and certified provider for ClearCorrect invisible braces, prepless veneers and Zoom! in-office one-hour whitening.
A Positive Experience
Building a foundation of trust by treating our patients as special individuals is vital to our success. We understand how uneasy some patients may feel about their dental visits, and how we can make a difference in providing a relaxing and positive experience. Our entire team is dedicated to providing you with excellent, personalized care and service to make your visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
We thank you for allowing us to take care of your dental needs and look forward to serving you. Make an appointment today…..we’ll give you a reason to smile!
Meet the Doctor
Dr. Schultz has called San Antonio home since 1967. As the son of an Air Force father, he moved around a bit before settling in San Antonio. Graduating from John Jay High School in 1976, Dr. Schultz went on to San Antonio College and attended the University of Texas in Austin to receive his Bachelor’s Degree in Advertising in 1980. After several years in the advertising world, Dr. Schultz went back to school to become a dentist, receiving his DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) in 1999. Since then, Dr. Schultz has worked at his present office, caring for and treating his patients as if they were family.
Dr, Schultz also knows of the need to give back to the community, which is why he has spent the last 17 years working for “La Mision” on Fridays, the charitable organization run by the “Daughters of Charity,” an organization that works on sliding scale fees those without the means to go to a private dental office. Dr. Schultz has since retired from the Daughters of Charity to be open on Fridays at his own office at 5015 De Zavala Rd.
When possible, Dr Schultz also devotes some of his weekends helping Uncle Sam keep our military reserve ready for deployment for Navy, Army, Air Force, and National Guard by doing much needed dental exams and treatment. It’s his way of giving back to his country through his profession.
Dr. Schultz and his staff, Kathy and John, have worked together many years and continue to offer our patients the personal care they want and the professional care they deserve. Kathy actually worked here longer. She worked for the previous dentist at this address as the office manager (or front desk goddess as she prefers to be called) and stayed on with Dr. Schultz. John joined soon afterward. He received his training as an RDA (Registered Dental Assistant) over fifteen years ago at Lackland Air Force Base Dental Clinic.
Meet the Team
Office Manager/Front Desk Goddess
Kathy has been working the front desk for many years, dealing with insurance companies, scheduling and everything else that keeps the office going. Dentistry is in her blood. Her father is a dentist well-known in the Air Force and at the University of Texas Health Science Center. Her brother is also a dentist, living in Colorado.
Registered Dental Assistant/Supernatural talent
John has been involved in dentistry for over 15 years, receiving his training at Wilford Hall at Lackland AFB. He also serves his country, assisting with performing dental work on U.S. troops preparing them for deployment overseas. Most Fridays you may find John working at La Mission HealthCare Clinic, a charitable medical and dental clinic on the South Side of San Antonio which works to provide healthcare for those in need.
