The “Total Smile” Approach
Dr. Farnoosh has gained recognition in national publications such as The New York Times for his “Total Smile” approach to dental aesthetics. At his Los Angeles / Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist office he aims to create truly beautiful results by harmonizing all three components of a healthy smile:
Beautiful Teeth – Aesthetically appealing teeth have proportional shape and a healthy color and texture, but should also rest at the appropriate position in relation to the lips, the jaw, and the other teeth.
Attractive Gums – Your gums provide a visual “frame” for your teeth, so in order to set off your smile in a pleasing way, they should display only partially when you smile, presenting a healthy, even tone without obvious discoloration.
Appealing Lips - For a balanced effect, your lips should show a healthy amount of your teeth, but only part of your gum line, when you smile. Often, even healthy teeth and gums look unattractive with a “gummy” smile, but Dr. Farnoosh has developed specific procedures to correct this problem.
Cosmetic and Reconstructive Dentistry
As a highly experienced cosmetic dentist and Los Angeles dental implant surgeon, Dr. Farnoosh offers a full line of techniques to ensure that your teeth function well and look great. Some of his most popular options include Los Angeles dental implants, which provide permanent replacements for damaged or lost teeth and offer a more effective, often much healthier, alternative to dentures.

Dr. Farnoosh also has extensive experience performing reconstructive surgery including bone grafting and ridge preservation / augmentation to restore the teeth and dental support structures after they have been damaged by accident or disease or to prepare the foundation for placement of dental implants.
