Why Our Multispecialty Dental Office Is Your Best Choice

There are 8000 dentists in Los Angeles County, so why do so many of our peers–as well as our patients–believe that Wilshire Smile Studio is one of the best practices anywhere?

Our founder, Dr. Igal Elyassi, a graduate of the University of Southern California School of Dentistry, opened it in Hollywood in 2002, near the border with Beverly Hills. With so many celebrities setting sky-high standards for gleaming smiles, the area is packed with practitioners claiming to be among the best, with prices to match. Others, unfortunately, take advantage of the fact that most people don\’t really know enough about dentistry to know what high-quality outcomes should be.

But Dr. Elyassi set very demanding standards for Wilshire Smile\’s services, while offering fair prices and financing options. He also hired only the top candidates for his staff, from dental hygienists to x-ray technicians. It is no wonder that you usually need to book an appointment well in advance because of so many enthusiastic word-of-mouth recommendations.

But often overlooked is a major differentiator between WSS and most other local dental offices. It has the latest technology to deliver excellent general dentistal practices, such as ways to fix cavities so that no one knows you had them, Invisalign treatments for crooked teeth, professional whitening (removing 15 layers of shading in an hour), and the creation of veneers to cover smile imperfections (which can last more than 10 years with proper care). But unlike most practices, it is a one-stop-shop for a variety of specialties you many need.

Dr. Baruch Twersky is a graduate of the highly-regarded University of Pennsylvania dental school and has training and expertise in a wide range of special dental issues, including Invisalign orthodontic treatment, cosmetic dentistry, TMJ disorder (which makes it difficult to open and close the mouth), and sleep apnea (a common breathing problem that can even be life threatening).

Dr. Sara Tanavoli is a graduate of USC’s dental school who spent three additional years to become one of Southern California’s best periodontists, making her an expert on diseases of the gums and jawbone. She teaches other dentists how to use advanced materials for tissue regeneration and the placement of dental implants.

Dr. Nariman Saadat earned his B.S. at the University of California, Los Angeles emphasizing microbiology, molecular genetics, and immunology. He went on to earn his dental degree there before attending Oregon Health and Science University, where he received both an M.D. and a degree in oral surgery. His skills cover a wide range of oral and facial treatments, including tooth extraction, facial trauma, nerve reconstruction, bone grafting, and complex implants cases.
