Dr. Schulte
Elyse M Schulte, DDS
Dr. Schulte is from a small town in Northwest Ohio, where she worked for her hometown dentist in high school and college. That is where her love for dentistry started! She achieved her degrees from the University of Dayton and The Ohio State University College of Dentistry, where she graduated Magna Cum Laude. She completed a General Practice Residency, after graduation, at Summa Health Systems Hospital, and has been practicing in the Cincinnati area since.
Dr. Schulte loves getting to know her patients and making them feel comfortable in the dental chair. She feels at home with the small town family feel of Bridgewater Family Dental and works to continue on the great relationships that Dr. Pavloff, and his staff, have built with patients since 1980.
She strongly values continuing her education in dentistry, to help provide the best care for her patients. She is currently working toward achieving the honor of becoming an Academy of General Dentistry Fellow, which requires 500 hours of additional education and training in dentistry. She is a member of the American Dental Association, Ohio Dental Association, Cincinnati Dental Society, The Academy of General Dentistry, and Spear Study Club.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Schulte loves being active outdoors with her husband and daughter. They enjoy cycling, going to Lake Cumberland, traveling, and cheering on the Dayton Flyers!
