About our office
Schuster and Ochoco Dental is a cutting edge dental office located on Wilshire Blvd. across from Erewhon market. There is parking located in the private garage of our building and available street parking on Wilshire Blvd. and we are open Monday – Thursday. We help our patients bill their PPO insurance carriers as a courtesy. We have Santa Monica Dentists that provide services in:
General, Family & Cosmetic Dentistry (Cleanings, Fillings, Crowns, and Veneers)
Our Santa Monica 90403 Dental practice focuses on providing patients with a unique dental experience with an emphasis in patient comfort while practicing the highest quality of dentistry. A strong focus is placed on keeping the practice environmentally responsible; we recycle, are a mercury-free practice, use responsible materials, and conserve energy.
Financial, Payment and Insurance
We strive to provide care through the use of the finest equipment and materials. In order to upkeep that standard we are “out of network” with insurances. That being said, your insurance may have excellent “out of network” benefits, and allow you to receive a high level of compensation at our practice (Cleanings, Exams and X-rays may be covered at 80-100%). Our friendly office staff will be very happy to help research your benefits on your behalf.
We understand that many of you have dental benefits from your workplace. As a courtesy to our patients, it is our practice to bill your dental PPO insurance for the services you receive. You are responsible for the remaining balance that your insurance does not pay for.
We are not able to accept Dental HMO, Dentical, or Medical.
Although we offer most dental services in office, there are times when we need to refer you to an outside specialty practice. Know that these practices are selected for their clinical excellence and are not in any way financially tied to our office.
A Tour of the Office and our Equipment
Completely renovated in 2020, Schuster and Ochoco Dental is designed to be a premium dental practice that exceeds today’s standards. High ceilings and use of large glass windows overlooking the hills and the ocean create a feeling of openness, while providing privacy in 4 separate rooms. Ceramic tiles meld with quartz, wood and earth tones throughout the practice. 4K LED televisions and premium sound systems provide entertainment in each patient treatment room.
Every single piece of dental equipment was selected with the goal of providing unparalleled dental care to our patients. Ever constantly improving our dental armamentarium, we have just completed an expansion of our already cutting edge equipment in 2020. There are not many offices that can match the quality and safety of our equipment, supplies, and technology integration.
In order to create a safe environment we have invested in medical-grade industrial air purifiers that have been installed in each individual operatory. These air purifiers perform at a level far above the consumer-grade air purifiers found in other offices. In addition, we have also utilized external air suction units to eradicate the presence of aerosols in the operatory. A Molekule air purifier can be found in the lobby which utilizes PECO technology to destroy mold, bacteria and viruses.
