About Us
Bringing a higher level of dental care and caring to Southern California communities.
In 1991, a group of dedicated dental professionals saw the need for quality and multi-specialty dental care in many communities throughout the greater Los Angeles area. Their vision was to open state-of-the-art dental care practices that would combine the highest standard of care, the latest technologies, and the services of talented general dentists and specialists to meet the needs of the communities they serve. A family happy with their dental health. West Coast Dental – bringing a higher level of dental care and caring to Southern California communities.
Today, that vision has become a reality. West Coast Dental and its affiliated practices have many convenient locations to serve you with an unparalleled level of expertise, service, convenience, and care. Inside of these practices, general dentists and specialists work side-by-side with their friendly, well-trained associates to ensure their patients get the most appropriate care and a high level of personal service.

Toys for Tots
Every holiday season West Coast Dental teams up with the Salvation Army of Southern California to provide underprivileged children with unwrapped toys. West Coast Dental has donated thousands of unwrapped toys in the course of 10 years. West Coast Dental also encourages patients to help donate by giving them a 10% discount on any new service. Tis the season for giving!
COVID-19 Pandemic
While COVID-19 has affected our ability to gather, it’s also deeply impacted schoolchildren and their families who rely on their school’s meals, support, and education. To help support our community, Magicland Dental has teamed up with local school lunch programs to hand out meals, and also toothbrushes, to ensure nutritious meals and continuous oral health education despite the very real limitations of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The program is a continuation of Magicland Dental’s commitment to providing local children, in partnership with the local school districts, the quality oral healthcare that they, and every child, truly deserves.
The Magicland Dental team dressed up in costumes (like Spiderman, and the tooth fairy!) to make their mission fun for children – all while masked and gloved to ensure absolute safety for staff and guests.
“COVID-19 has presented challenges for us all, but together we will get through this,” says VP of Marketing Norma Adams. “Attitude is everything!”
Through the program, Magicland Dental has already distributed over 1000 school lunches packed with toothbrushes for children in the community.
GeriSmiles
GeriSmiles is a hygiene mobile unit that brings dental cleanings to local schools. As a preferred partner and provider of GeriSmiles we team up to educate children on the benefits are oral health care.
FAME
West Coast Dental & Orthodontics, the leading provider of adult and children’s dentistry in Southern California, has partnered with First African Methodist Episcopal Church Los Angeles, (FAME Church LA) to offer free orthodontic screenings for local children aged 12-17 years old.
West Coast Dental’s Dr. Crawford provides free braces screenings which will automatically enter each child in for a chance to receive a donated set of braces as a part of West Coast Dental’s Day of Giving.
“I love working with West Coast Dental because of opportunities such as this to get out into the community and provide the oral hygiene services that are so needed by our community,” says Dr. Crawford, resident dentist at the Artesia Children’s Dental Building location. “I look forward to seeing everyone’s smiling faces on Sunday as we perform braces screenings on the ground for those who might not otherwise have access.”
LifeStream Blood Bank
West Coast Dental & Orthodontics has teamed up with LifeStream Blood Bank to fullfill their mission of helping save lives by connecting donors and patients through the gift of blood. West Coast Dental is commited to help safe lives and also provide free toothbrushes to all of those who donate at a LifeStream blood drive.
