Sherman Oaks sits on the other side of the hills from Beverly Hills, and the drive over the 405 is something every Valley resident knows well. Making that trip for dental work only makes sense if the plan is clear and the visits are efficient.
At Dr. Dan Shaer's studio, complex treatment is mapped before it starts. Your smile is designed digitally, the steps are laid out in order, and you approve the plan before anything is done, so each drive over the hill has a purpose.
Getting here from Sherman Oaks
From the Sherman Oaks Galleria area the drive is about 13 miles. The typical route takes the San Diego Freeway (I-405) south through the Sepulveda Pass for about 7 miles, then exits onto Wilshire Boulevard and heads east about 5 miles through Westwood and Beverly Hills to the studio.
Coming down Wilshire from the 405, you pass Westwood and the heart of Beverly Hills before reaching La Cienega. The studio is just before that intersection.

Planning the trip over the hill
Because the 405 is unpredictable, Valley patients often book earlier in the day or plan the visit alongside other errands on the Westside. If you are running late, call the studio and let the team know.
Once you are on Wilshire, the route is simple: stay on Wilshire eastbound until you approach La Cienega. The Wilshire/La Cienega Metro station entrance is about a block from the building.
If the 405 is backed up, Beverly Glen Boulevard is a surface route over the hills from the Ventura Boulevard area to the Westside, and Coldwater Canyon Avenue links Studio City to Beverly Hills. Both are winding canyon roads, so allow extra time.
Treatments worth the drive
Full-arch and full-mouth treatment are where careful planning matters most. All-On-4 dental implants replace a full arch of teeth with a fixed bridge on four implants, and full mouth rehabilitation rebuilds both function and appearance when many teeth need attention.
For cosmetic goals, smile design previews your new smile before treatment, which helps you decide with confidence before committing to the visits.
Full-arch treatment is usually planned with a detailed 3D assessment of the jaw and bite before any surgery is scheduled. That planning visit is where you learn the sequence, the healing time and how the temporary and final teeth fit together.
