Crooked Bites, Underbites, Overbites, Small Teeth, Not Sleeping Well, Suffering from TMJ, Jaw Pain, Headaches, Neck Pain, and more. Face Lift Dentistry is a comprehensive functional and aesthetic transformation that goes above and beyond cosmetic dentistry and porcelain veneers.

This method is about improving the jawline, the facial profile, reversing the effects of aging, with the ultimate smile and doing it while simultaneously restoring worn-down teeth, correcting underbites, jaw pain, headaches, without surgeries and without drilling down your healthy teeth.Treatment is exclusively available to patients willing to travel to Santa Monica, California.

The reason that VENLAY Restoration have advantages over porcelain crowns and porcelain veneers is that the healthy tooth enamel does not need to be ground down. When bite correction and advanced anti-aging dentistry is the goal, the VENLAY restoration combined with the Face Lift Dentistry method, is a better choice over the old method using porcelain veneers and crowns.
A misaligned or crooked jaw can lead to physical and emotional problems and hamper people to enjoy life to its full potential. All too often, jaw misalignment is camouflaged with cosmetic dentistry, which can not solve the problem. Orthodontic therapy options such as braces, clear aligners, expanders, reverse-pull face masks, and jaw surgery is either too invasive or take far too long, which in the end may or may not correct the problem.
The shapes of our faces are not idealized because most of us do not have the best bite position and jaw position for our facial structure, causing facial disharmony. We could have a small looking chin or a short round aging face or head and neck stress all due to the wrong bite position.

With "total optimization" using the Face Lift Dentistry method, the patient has less bite strain, less neck tension, less facial tension, less jaw pain, whiter teeth, better facial proportions, a wider smile and an improved facial profile.In the before photo on the left, she already has porcelain veneers and "smile" type of cosmetic dentistry which did nothing for her face or health.
Why do we need Anti-Aging Dentistry? We all want to have a healthy appearance and we all want to live our lives with the least amount of medical care as possible. Then as we age something happens that starts to slow us down and unfortunately it usually goes untreated - your oral health. Older people have short round faces and younger looking people have egg shaped faces with a better lower jaw position all without surgery.
The biggest breakthrough in high tech dentistry has been going beyond just a smile by improving the shape of the patient's face and profile. Patients can have the chin size and facial profile by maximizing their biologic potential with Face Lift Dentistry bite optimization method.

This type of dental healthcare is designed to change the facial proportions, improve the patient's profile, correct the bite and whiten the color of the teeth all in one procedure.Porcelain veneers are just cosmetic dentistry and really only improve the smile. The 'Smile Dentistry does not improve your health and it is very limited in value because it only helps when you are smiling.

Sorry, that's a terrible excuse for your poor customer service skills. That's just bad behavior.

The best dentist on the planet. People from all over the world know who he is. He transforms faces to be more attractive through the teeth. He did the most insignificant changes to my teeth and everyone was telling me I had a beautiful smile after that. He's a perfectionist. cannot make this up. He is gods gift to teeth.

I had a great experience during my consultation with Dr. Muslin. He and his assistant were so thorough explaining the whole procedure. The consultation was $100, which they tell you about when you call to make an appointment. Unfortunately, spending over 50k on just my top arch is way out of my budget. Yes, the treatment has a hefty price tag but it really is an investment in your over all appearance and health. So if you are rich and have that kind of money, it seems like it is totally worth it.

Forgot to do my review awhile back but since I got an email recently, I was highly disappointed with the service. I waited an hour to be seen even though I arrived right on time. I Paid $100 for a consultation... no for him to put cotton on each side of my teeth,bite down and say "this what you will look like" and that was that.. yeah I could've done that at home.. oh well I get what I paid for thank you for your time though

Amazing. The best "thing" I've ever bought.
I spent a couple years debating whether to spend the money. My teeth have never showed (since losing my baby teeth) - miraculously Dr. Muslin and his team were able to fix my jaw placement and give me a real smile for the first time in my entire life!! (without drilling, pain, downtime, surgery, etc.) It took a week or so for my speech to come back fully (it was hard for me to say 's' and 'f' at first) but that was it.

Miraculous. I couldn't possibly be happier with how everything turned out.

Best in the business that I have found. Looking forward to the day that I can pull the trigger and afford the procedures. He is always ahead of the curve and you can guarantee that you will be happy with your results. Price point is only thing that prevents me from giving 5 stars. But I guess if you want the best you have to pay for the best.

Dr. Muslin does an incredible job with crowns and veneers. I had a bite correction and a whole mouth (every single tooth) reconstruction done by him. His work is amazing, which is why I chose to go to him for my dental work (this was after several consults with other cosmetic/reconstructive dentists). Dr. Muslin's work and reputation stood out above the rest. My before and after dental work is nothing short of astounding! Dr. Muslin is as much an artist as he is a cosmetic dentist. If you truly want to have the best looking teeth and smile, go see him. You will not be disappointed with the

Awful, arrogant man. He didn't apologize for keeping me waiting for almost an hour, and had an argument with his nurse while I was sitting in the consulting room. Outrageous prices and a very dated, unpleasant office environment. Avoid!

Dr. Muslin is wonderful. He gave me his honest opinion, and gave me different options ranging from least expensive to most expensive. I inquired about veneers to correct my front gap, and uneven sized front teeth. He didn't pressure me do anything or upsell, which I really appreciated. He told me the most effective would be if I got a referral to get braces on, which would cost a lot less than actual veneers. Most dentists I have gone to have been less than honest. I will be returning here from now on! The services I got done here were teeth whitening and also annual cleaning. I would highly

After looking around my area for dentists I came across Dr. Muslin who I went to for general dentistry vs. cosmetic dentistry so I can only speak from that point of view, however it looks like he is an amazing cosmetic dentist. I had X-rays and a mouthguard made for me during my visit.

First thoughts, I came in and nobody was waiting around like people usually are when you go to a doctors office. The front office staff seemed really happy to be at work and greeted me. I don't think i was even able to sit down before i went to the back (such a relief, I hate waiting when i have a scheduled

Dr Muslin fixed my TMJ and that of my sister. He is simply the best there is. Would not consider using anyone else. I get complements on my teeth all the time, and the whole mouth was done in just 4 visits! Painless injections too! Thank you Dr Muslin!

Sure! The doctor is great, the procedure for correcting overbite, as presented, is outstanding. But the price.....my jaw dropped permanently and fixed itself when I heard the 80K price tag.
Of course that was for a full mouth reconstruction.

I wish I had seen Yelp reviews before I took my 460 mile round trip for consultation.

I've been a patient of Dr Muslin's now for well over 10 years. I can say without a doubt he is simply the best around! His staff is highly trained, knowledgeable, kind and welcoming, the office is comfortable, clean and centrally located in Santa Monica.

His work is simply the best in both cosmetic and general dentistry.

I'd also be remiss not to mention the DENTAL HYGIENISTS (all of them are wonderful)!

However my (French) hygienist INGRID, is so charming and such a joy. She always does a the most meticulous and thorough job on every cleaning. My teeth are never as smooth

Dr Muslin is fantastic! My sisters and I all go to him for our general dentistry and it's been great. He's so nice and caring and informative. He takes the time to talk to you and answer all questions and concerns. His staff are all so friendly and they seem to get to know their clients fairly well. Certain procedures can be pretty pricey when it comes to the extra stuff beyond teeth cleaning, but he's a one of a kind doctor who offers unique services. Nice office, great location, and plenty of parking.

Sharing is Caring, when I have a good experience with someone or something that made a difference in my life, I would love to share it with others.

What I have come to like about this office is how clean it is every time I go there. Every room has a sliding glass door that makes this office so safe and quite that it is relaxing. The TV's on the ceiling are something that I have never seen before and they are a real helpful addition even when getting my teeth clean. This is a man that cares about his patients and had done more than most dentists to make the experience of his office a good

I have been a patient of Dr. Muslin off and on for over 20 years. He is a phenomenal dentist. Over the years I have referred many patients to him including my husband who had Face Lift Dentistry done almost 2 years ago.

Every experience I have had in that office has been far and beyond what other dentist have to offer. I have live all over the US and, as a consequence, I have had to go to many dentists. When I was 18 I decided to get veneers on my upper front teeth by Dr. Muslin. They are so well done a couple of dentist didn't realize that my veneers where not my real teeth until

I am now in the process of working out my major dental issues with Dr Sam Muslin.
I will update my reviews positive or negative as soon as I get this hopefully resolved.
I think it is essential that us Yelpers share there dental & medical experiences with each other. My intention for writing such a negative review previously about Sam Muslin was because I had a negative experience. I am going to be positive that he will address my problems & I will end up reviewing a great review in the end.
Stay tuned!!

On a positive note; Sam Muslin is a nice friendly person but, this is not a personality
