Our Practice History in Gaithersburg, MD
As a private, dentist-owned practice with no corporate influence or DSO ownership, Schneider Family Dentistry has provided excellent, personalized dentistry for three generations, with a fourth on the way. In 1940, Dr. John E. Schneider, known as Dr. Ernie, opened the practice with a dental chair in the well-known Woodward & Lothrop department store. In 1968, his son William, or Dr. Bill, joined the practice, and in 1970 they moved the office to Gaithersburg. Dr. Bill's son Adam, or Dr. Adam, joined the practice in 1998. Dr. Adam is proud that his daughter Caroline will join him as the fourth generation of Schneider dentists. A certified dental assistant, Caroline works in the office during breaks from college and will graduate from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry in 2029.
As the practice grew, the office moved from its Frederick Avenue location to its current office on Montgomery Village Avenue. Today, Dr. Schneider, along with his associates Dr. Staub and Dr. Tran and their team, continues the tradition of providing excellent, personal dental care to patients of all ages. SFD is known as a cutting-edge dental practice and has always remained at the forefront of advances in dentistry, using proven state-of-the-art materials, systems and technology. The practice is equipped with the latest technology, from dental lasers to crown milling machines and 3D diagnostic tools.
The defining quality of Schneider Family Dentistry is the genuine attention given to each patient. When you come to the office, you become part of the family. The team is proud to know you and build lasting relationships, and is committed to treating you as they would their own family members, with integrity, honesty and compassion. As a multi-generational practice, many patients watched Dr. Adam grow up and have been treated by three generations of Schneider dentists. The team is honored to have an extended family that includes its wonderful staff and all the families who have come to Schneider Family Dentistry over the years.
