Santa Monica Dental Arts

Where refined aesthetic care, advanced technology, and multigenerational expertise come together.

Welcome to Santa Monica Dental Arts

At SMDA, we believe exceptional dentistry begins with listening. Our doctor-led team brings over 75 years of combined experience, blending legacy mentorship with advanced cosmetic and restorative dentistry in a calm, modern space designed to feel welcoming, never clinical. With a hospitality-inspired approach and fully customized treatment planning, we create anti-aging smiles that harmonize function and aesthetics.

As a green, metal-free dental practice, we do not use amalgam fillings and instead prioritize safe, biocompatible materials that support whole-body wellness while delivering beautiful, natural-looking results for our Santa Monica community.

I have peace of mind with my dental care here because Dr. Koshki is so trustworthy. He looks out for me. He answers all my questions. I feel like he's advocating for me and for my teeth.

Such a great experience every time I come in. The office is clean, modern, and has a really relaxing feel. I love that both Dr. Koshki and his son, Dr. David, take the time to get to know you and make sure you’re comfortable. The hygienist was super gentle, and the whole team works really well together. This is hands down my favorite dental office in Santa Monica.

Brian R.

Had my first visit with Dr Koshki this morning, and found he and the entire staff (Vicki and Oscar at reception, and Carla in the treatment room), warm, welcoming, and reassuring. I appreciated the clear communication, warm humor, and thorough attention to each little aspect of my concerns.

Heidi N.

I’ve been a patient here for over 20 years, and my experience at the new office was excellent. I recently saw Dr. David Koshki, and he was outstanding—he performed a very thorough cleaning, took his time, and answered all of my questions clearly and thoughtfully. The visit was professional, comfortable, and reassuring, and it’s great to see the same high level of care continue over the years. Highly recommend.
