Dr. Schwegman received his B.A. from the University of South Carolina and his DMD from the University of Pennsylvania Dental School.

Dental bleaching, also known as tooth whitening is a common procedure in general dentistry. According to the FDA, whitening restores natural tooth color and bleaching whitens beyond the natural color. There are many methods available. One option is the use of custom bleaching trays in which we will take a mold of your teeth and make a custom tray for your mouth. We will provide whiten gels to use with the custom trays on a regular basis or as needed.
Our conventional oral screening exam includes looking inside your mouth for any lesions that might be visible to the naked eye and feeling your neck for any suspicious bumps. We can also use a special scope to see beneath the surface to detect potentially dangerous growths we might have otherwise missed.
While our office accepts many insurance plans, most dental insurance covers some but not all of your dental care. Co-payments and deductibles are the responsibility of the patient. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff will work with you and your insurance company to maximize your dental benefits.

I have been nothing but pleased with the quality of work they do here at Dentistry by the Sea. The dentist is very kind and comprehensive about the services you need and doesn't try to sell you extra things you don't need like others I have seen. I recommend everyone to see him!

Great environment! Dr. Michel and his staff do a fast, efficient and excellent job. That being said, not only on your teeth but making sure his patients are as comfortable as can be. Easy scheduling appointments, someone always answers. I highly recommend!

I am a new patient at By the Sea Dentistry. I could not be more pleased with the staff and Dr Michel. I was greeted warmly and professionally. The new patient paperwork went smoothly and my hygienist Deidre explained each step of the process. I would highly recommend By the Sea Dentistry for all your dental needs!

Although no one looks forward to dental visits, Angel made the entire experience enjoyable. Tremendously personable and really makes you feel like you're the most important part of her day! Great job all around!

Wonderful staff! Seen on time which is a plus! Deedra, my hygienist, was very thorough with the cleaning and took time to educate me on proper flossing. My teeth felt awesome afterward!

I've been using Dr. Michel for a few years now and I think he's the best there is. He's polite, professional and a great dentist. I have never felt any pain while he did my several root canals, fillings, etc. The staff couldn't be any better too. The receptionists and hygienists are awesome. I recommend them to everyone that I can.

Great dentist, very professional and very caring. Takes time to explain things to you. I will never dread a dentist visit again! The hygenist, Noelle, , is also wonderful, as is Samantha at the front desk. Hands down best dentist I've ever been to!
