Q: Dr. Shaer, cosmetic dentistry is popular all over the world. Why do you think the demand is growing so rapidly?
Dr. Dan: People today see their smile as part of their personal brand. Social media, digital presence, and global mobility have increased the value of aesthetics. A confident smile is not just a matter of vanity; it impacts first impressions, career opportunities, and even overall emotional well-being. Demand is growing everywhere, from Los Angeles to Dubai to Europe, as people become more aware of what modern dentistry can achieve.
Q: How does working in Beverly Hills shape your outlook and approach?
Dr. Dan: Beverly Hills is a world center of excellence. My patients are high-achieving individuals, actors, entrepreneurs, and professionals who expect precision and artistry. This environment forces me to constantly refine my techniques, invest in the latest technology, and deliver results that are natural yet transformative. It’s about combining science with aesthetics at the highest level.
Q: What sets your approach apart from other cosmetic dentists?
Dr. Dan: I focus on harmony and individuality. No two patients are the same, so no two smiles should be the same. I combine digital smile design, 3D scanning and minimally invasive techniques with artistic impression. My philosophy is: the best dentistry is invisible. After the procedure, the patient looks refreshed, confident and natural, never “overdone”.
Q: Many patients come to you for treatment from quite distant countries. Why do you think international patients choose Beverly Hills and you personally?
Dr. Dan: Patients are looking for professionals they can trust. They want a dentist who understands both global standards of beauty and personal nuances. I have treated patients from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Many tell me that they come to us for the combination of precision, discretion, and artistic aesthetics that Beverly Hills is known for. For them, it is an experience that will boost their confidence for life.
Q: Technology in dentistry is advancing rapidly. What innovations are you most excited about?
Dr. Dan: Digital workflows are definitely revolutionizing cosmetic dentistry. With advanced scanning, I can design a smile, preview results, and place restorative techniques with unparalleled precision. Materials are also improving – ultra-thin veneers and biocompatible ceramics allow for the preservation of natural teeth while ensuring durability and beauty. Patients today enjoy faster, safer, and more predictable results.
Q: How do you see the future of cosmetic dentistry?
Dr. Dan: The future is personalization. We are moving away from smiles that are the same for everyone. In the future, each smile will be designed based on the patient’s facial structure, personality and lifestyle. As techniques evolve, treatments will become even less invasive, longer-lasting and more affordable. My role is to stay one step ahead of this evolution so that every patient – whether local or international – leaves with a smile that is uniquely theirs.
