From South Bay and surrounding communities to areas across Southern California, patients visit our Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach offices to achieve the world-class dental expertise, personalized care, and amazing results our dentists provide. We treat each patient like a member of the family and truly get to know their needs and expectations before designing treatments to effectively achieve their goals.

The dentist you choose makes a difference in the level of care and the overall experience you receive. At the practice of our experienced cosmetic dentist, Michael Fulbright, D.D.S., we are passionate about helping people improve their smiles and self-esteem with exceptional dental care. We have assembled a phenomenal team of some of the most experienced and skilled implant and cosmetic dentists in the area, and every member of our staff is committed to giving you the best care you can find.

We are proud of providing the best possible care for our patients. That is why we practice Complete Health Dentistry and are often able to help turn a patients health around if they have either been neglecting their mouth or just hadnt realized what was going on. We understand that not everyone is as excited as we are about dentistry and we have empathy for those who have had traumatic or negative experiences. We strive to turn that around for our patients and make their visits to our office both positive and enjoyable experiences. We will always be our patients biggest advocate for their complete health first and foremost.

We believe our relationship is with the patient and not their insurance company. Thats why we made the decision to become fee-for-service back in 2012. Were proud of the fact that our patients are making their health decisions based on whats right for their health, and not what their insurance dictates. We understand that finances are important, which is why we offer patient financing and payment plans that fit within our patients lifestyles.

Again its about presenting our patients with the best possible outcome for their health, and not being confined to what their insurance will cover. If things need to be phased out or if its possible to prioritize treatment, then we will always do what is best and most agreeable for our patients.

Choosing a cosmetic dentist in an area that has many of them, such as here in the Los Angeles region, can seem like a daunting task. However, there are a number of helpful things to look for in order to narrow down your choices and select the best cosmetic dentist for your needs and goals. The following guidelines can serve as a good start when considering your options:

An experienced cosmetic dentist such as Dr. Fulbright often has an extensive list of credentials. The prospective dentists biography is often available on his or her website, and it is worth a thorough review. The doctors number of years in practice, memberships, involvement in the community, commitment to continuing education, and areas of special focus are just some of the important elements of their background that can be useful in determining their level of skill and experience.

Dental practices often have general and cosmetic dentistry before-and-after photos available on their websites. If not, feel free to ask the practice to view before-and-after photos when you visit the office. These Smile Galleries can give you an idea as to the results your prospective dentist is capable of. In fact, you may even find photos of patients who have had the same treatment you are considering, which can provide you with a fuller picture of what can be expected from specific procedures.

Learning about the experiences of other patients at the practice can be helpful during the selection process. Many dental practices have pages devoted to dentist reviews and patient testimonials directly on the website, and third-party review sites can also serve as a resource. These can often give you a greater understanding of what you can expect in terms of the overall treatment experience.
