DR. ELAINE GORELIK, DDS
Los Angeles, CA
Gorelik specializes in same-day smiles with the help of CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology. This allows patients the option of having veneers and crowns placed in one appointment—no temporary crowns necessary—while prioritizing comfort with ErgoSoothe massage chairs, fleece blankets, and Netflix.
DR. LARRY ROSENTHAL, DDS
New York, NY / Dubai
Dr. Rosenthal, the godfather of veneers, has placed more than 40,000 implants since helping to pioneer the treatment in 1981. His influence is vast: He also serves as founder and clinical director of the Rosenthal Institute at NYU’s College of Dentistry, forging the next generation of cosmetic dentists.
DR. MARC LOWENBERG, DDS
New York, NY
Since opening his practice in 1973, Dr. Lowenberg has treated a host of musicians and movie stars (The Rolling Stones were among his very first patients) by creating smiles with character. He takes a holistic approach when determining each patient’s course of treatment, considering both facial features and personality for imperfectly perfect, natural-but-better smiles.
DR. MICHAEL APA, DDS
New York, NY / Dubai
By scientifically assessing facial asymmetries, Dr. Apa has mastered natural-looking porcelain veneers with an approach to cosmetic dentistry called Facial Aesthetic Design (FAD), which allows him to reshape teeth and balance facial features to fit more harmoniously with the face. (He’s also created Apa Beauty, a breakthrough series of gentle yet effective whitening products to continue your tooth transformation at home.)
DR. SAM SALEH, DDS
Los Angeles, CA
Patients flock from all over the world to be treated by Dr. Saleh, who’s known for his masterful, results-focused approach. By staying ahead of the latest technological advancements in cosmetic dentistry (he works with CAD CAM to take 3-D images of mouths and teeth for same-day service for crowns and implants), Dr. Saleh creates star-quality teeth (often for actual stars) with extra amenities. To wit: His Rodeo Drive office even offers nervous patients aromatherapy to calm in-the-dentist-chair jitters.
