Meet Sally Yousefi of Elegant Smile Dental in West Los Angeles/Brentwood

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sally Yousefi.

Thanks for sharing your story with us Sally. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I knew early on as a dental student at UCLA that improving a person’s smile can be transformative and life-changing, and that has been the main inspiration and motivation in pursuing my career: to give someone the best smile possible. As well as being in constant communication with people. I take exceptional pride in precision and sub-millimeter accuracy. This approach has benefited me tremendously in my every day dental practice, and I am able to yield superior results. I believe in continually researching every aspect of the techniques that I perform and always utilizing the latest and greatest technology. My philosophy towards patient care has always been to treat everyone as if they were family.

I am married to Dr. Amin J. Mirhadi, MD, a Radiation Oncology specialist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for the past 12 years, and we have three children: Joey, Mia, and Kyla.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
A true Bruin, I have completed nine years at UCLA: four as an undergrad, four in dental school and one-year post-graduate residency at UCLA Venice Dental clinic. UCLA is not a very easy college and quite challenging. I spent many hours studying and practicing my skills. After getting married, having three kids while working and keeping up with my practice was quite exhausting at times. However, through it all my passion for dentistry pushed through.

Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Elegant Smile Dental – what should we know?
I am very gentle, friendly, and quite precise. I am very passionate about providing the most advanced dental care following evidence-based dentistry in a comfortable and cozy atmosphere with state-of-the-art technology.

At Elegant Smile Dental, I specialize in cosmetic dentistry including smile rejuvenation, porcelain veneers and crowns, dental implants and Invisalign, I am extremely conservative and a big advocate of minimally invasive natural-looking dentistry.

Any shoutouts? Who else deserves credit in this story – who has played a meaningful role?
I met my husband, Dr. Amin Mirhadi while I was in dental school at UCLA and he was completing his training in Radiation Oncology. He has been by my side and my rock throughout all my career and has pushed me to excel under any and all conditions.
