Serving Malibu

Minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry for Malibu

A scenic 20-minute drive north via Kanan Road. Porcelain veneers, digital smile design, and conservative restorative care — the craft, without Los Angeles pricing.

Worth the drive from Pacific Coast Highway

Malibu patients who come inland to see us are typically looking for one of two things: careful, minimally invasive cosmetic work — or a second opinion before committing to a large case in Los Angeles. Our practice is quieter, our consultations are unrushed, and we do not compete with the coastal office economics that often drive premature veneer cases.

Dr. Shawn Matian's training in biomimetic dentistry means our default approach is to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible. For veneers, that means thinner, more conservative preparations (sometimes no-prep when appropriate) and digitally designed previews so you can see what you're committing to.

Most Malibu patients come inland via Kanan Road through the Santa Monica Mountains — about 20 minutes door-to-door from PCH. We schedule Malibu patients in longer blocks when possible so the drive is worth the trip, combining exam, cleaning, and cosmetic consult in a single visit.

Getting here from Malibu

Most Malibu patients reach us via Kanan Road — a scenic 20-minute drive through the Santa Monica Mountains from PCH. The route avoids Los Angeles traffic entirely.

  • From central Malibu (Malibu Country Mart / Civic Center): head north on Kanan Road for roughly 13 miles, turn right on Agoura Road, then left on Roadside Drive.
  • From Point Dume / western Malibu: take PCH east to Kanan-Dume Road, then follow Kanan north through the mountains.
  • From eastern Malibu / Topanga: take PCH east to Malibu Canyon Road, north to Mulholland, then west to Kanan Road and north.

Free on-site parking. Elevator access to the second-floor suite.

Quick answers

Questions from Malibu patients

Is it worth the drive from Malibu?

Most Malibu patients say yes, once they have experienced the difference in pacing and doctor attention. We schedule longer appointments for out-of-area patients so you can combine exam, cleaning, and cosmetic consult in one visit.

Do you do conservative / no-prep veneers?

Yes. Our default approach is biomimetic and minimally invasive. We will often recommend additive or partial-coverage options before full veneers, and we use digital preview so you can see the result before any tooth preparation.

Can I do my consultation virtually first?

Yes — we offer video consultations for cosmetic evaluations. Send us a few photos and we will review before your first in-person visit to make the trip worthwhile.

Do you handle dental emergencies for Malibu patients?

Yes. Call (818) 706-6077 — we will do our best to see you the same day even with the drive. For severe trauma we can coordinate with local Malibu-area urgent care if proximity matters more than continuity.
