You do not need to leave Sacramento to see a biological dentist.
If you have been looking for a dentist who will look past the single tooth, you may have assumed it meant a drive to the Bay Area or a flight to Los Angeles. It does not.
The Sacramento office offers the same protocols, the same imaging and the same unhurried first conversation as Santa Monica. When a case needs both locations, your care moves between them without starting over.
This page is for you if
- You have been looking for a biological dentist in Northern California
- Jaw pain, clenching or chiropractic adjustments that never hold
- Old amalgam fillings you would like removed safely
- You are flying in and need an office near the airport
What happens differently here.
Five things you will notice from the first visit.
3D imaging
Cone beam CT where it is useful, because a flat x-ray misses what sits inside the bone.
The bite first
How your teeth meet is measured before any restorative work, not discovered after it.
Mercury safe
Old amalgam comes out under the SMART protocol, never ground into vapour you breathe.
Ozone over reflex
Ozone to disinfect the field, rather than reaching for antibiotics by default.
Your history
Your physician's findings belong in the same conversation as your teeth.
Not sure this is right for you?
Ask Dr. Panahpour directly. The first conversation is unhurried, typically 60 to 90 minutes, by phone or in person.
The dentist your doctor calls when nothing else has worked.
Around seven out of ten of Dr. Panahpour's patients are sent by a physician, a chiropractor or another practitioner, usually after something has already been tried more than once.
Thirty years of practice, a fourth generation of dentists in the family, and a career spent learning where the field is rewritten: NYU, Columbia, Sardinia and Sweden. He wrote The Good Dentist so patients could understand the work before they ever sat in the chair.
I feel more bright. Less fatigued. My body is very, very happy with getting rid of that.
Treatments in Sacramento
Available at this office, with complex cases coordinated across both locations.

Bite therapy and TMJ
Jaw pain, clenching, grinding and adjustments that never hold often trace back to how the teeth meet. The bite is examined and balanced with a non surgical appliance.
How bite therapy works
Safe mercury filling removal
SMART protocol removal. The tooth is isolated and vapour is captured at the source, so the load comes out and stays out.
Safe removal, step by step
Cavitation surgery
Hidden pockets of unhealed bone at old extraction sites, located with cone beam imaging rather than guessed at from a panoramic film.
About cavitation surgery
Zirconia implants
A metal free option for patients who react to metal or simply want none. White, inert and planned in 3D.
About zirconia implants
Ozone therapy
Gaseous ozone, ozonated water and oil to disinfect and support healing. In this practice since 2008.
How ozone is used
Biomimetic restoration
Conserve the tooth instead of cutting it down. Bonded restorations that flex and carry load like the structure they replace.

What people ask before booking.
Anything else, ask Dr. Panahpour directly.
Ask a question ›Is the Sacramento office the same standard as Santa Monica?
Yes. The same dentist, the same protocols and the same first conversation. Complex treatment plans can be split across both locations when that suits you better.
Do you treat jaw pain, clenching and TMJ in Sacramento?
Yes. Bite therapy is one of the most common reasons patients come to this office. The bite is examined first, because an uneven bite can drive tension well beyond the jaw.
Can I have my mercury fillings removed here?
Yes, under the SMART protocol, the same five stage method used in Santa Monica. Dr. Panahpour is SMART certified by the IAOMT.
I am travelling from outside Sacramento. Is that common?
Very. Patients come from across Northern California and from more than fourteen countries. The office is fifteen minutes from Sacramento International Airport.
What does the first visit involve?
A long conversation about your history, then an examination of your teeth, bite and jaw, with 3D imaging where it is useful. Nothing is drilled at the first visit.
Do I need a referral?
No. Referrals are common and welcome, but you can contact the office directly.
Start where you are.
