Dr. William Schaefer, DDS

Dentistry isn’t the kind of thing people get excited about, but finding a practice that handles everything from routine cleanings to emergency extractions without sending you across town makes life simpler. General dentists cover a lot of ground—fillings, crowns, basic orthodontics—so when a place lists those alongside cosmetic procedures like whitening or veneers, it at least saves you the hassle of juggling specialists. No frills, just the usual spectrum of services you’d expect (and maybe a few you didn’t).

The office sits at 66 Center St in Belleville, a block that’s quiet enough to avoid the chaos of Newark but still central enough to be convenient. If you’re calling to book a checkup or sort out an unexpected toothache, the number’s (973) 759-5526. For anyone mapping it out, the directions are straightforward—no confusing side streets or hidden entrances. It’s the kind of place you file under “necessary” and move on, which, when it comes to dentists, might be the highest praise.
