A brighter and fuller smile near Calabasas, CA

A great smile shows. When you talk and laugh, people should see your top teeth. Many of us lose that over time as teeth wear down, and some teeth never came in to their full length.

Dr. Perkins uses no prep porcelain veneers to bring back color, length and shape, so your smile looks full and natural again. About 85% of Dr. Perkins’ veneer patients keep their teeth exactly as they are underneath. How no prep veneers work.

Being close helps. Veneers take more than one visit, and from Calabasas each trip is a quick canyon drive to the coast.

Dr. Perkins trained at USC and the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, and our Malibu office opened in 2008. Meet Dr. Perkins.

Veneers and JawAlign™ together

When the jaw sits too far back or the bite has collapsed, new teeth alone can’t fix the look. Dr. Perkins moves the jaw first with JawAlign™, then places the veneers. We call this Facial Driven Dentistry™.

Patients Testimonials

The most professional and pristine place I have ever been to! Dr perkins transformed my smile in such a way that even my close friends can’t see what I had done but they are all guessing I had some cosmetic surgery! I look amazingly different and I had no idea that your whole face structure could be changed by changing your bite and realigning your jaw! I couldn’t be happier and I might add that Dr Perkins is probably the nicest and most caring and meticulous dentist on this planet!

Di T.

I’ve seen over 10 specialists for my TMJ that I’ve had for many years. Dr. Perkins is the first and only specialist who is able to not only get rid of my chronic headaches for over 20 years but I also did a magnificent job with veneers to give me that smile I’ve always been wanting. He’s very personable and super easy to get along with. Staff is very friendly and the location is perfect. I highly recommend him for all of your Dental needs!

Dimitry B.

I am very happy that I met Dr. Perkins when I did! He’s given me a beautiful smile. I had a couple of consultation before meeting Dr. Perkins and I wasn’t sold on any of treatment plans I had been presented. As soon as I met Dr. Perkins, he came up with a great treatment plan that was able to work around my busy schedule. His office is beautiful and welcoming as well!

Do porcelain veneers hurt?

For most patients, no. Dr. Perkins says plainly that porcelain veneers don’t hurt going on or afterward, and with no prep veneers there’s usually no drilling to numb for.

How long can teeth rot under veneers?

Teeth don’t rot because of veneers. Decay can’t get through the porcelain, but it can start at the edges where plaque collects, so brushing, flossing and regular checkups still matter.

How much do celebrity veneers cost?

Famous smiles cost more because of the dentist’s skill and planning, and the price depends on the case. Dr. Perkins sets your fee after the consultation, and financing is available. See financial information.

What can veneers fix?

Color, length, shape and small gaps or chips. They can lengthen teeth that have worn short and even out a smile that tilts. If an overbite is the issue, veneers alone won’t fix it, and overbite correction comes first.

What does Dr. Perkins check before placing veneers?

How much of your top teeth show at rest and when you talk, and whether your bite leaves room to lengthen them. More than half of patients don’t show enough of their upper teeth, and that changes the plan.

How much does a cosmetic dentist cost?

It ranges widely with the treatment. Whitening costs far less than a full smile makeover. Our office is out of network with insurance but can submit claims for functional work, and every plan is priced at the consultation.

Is it easy to get to Malibu from Calabasas for appointments?

Yes. It’s one of the shortest drives to our office: about 22 minutes through Malibu Canyon, with no freeway traffic for most of the way.

How far is Dr. Perkins' office from Calabasas?

About 14 miles from Calabasas City Hall, roughly 22 minutes without traffic, via Las Virgenes Road and Malibu Canyon Road.
