Millions of people worldwide suffer from dental issues, which affect both the physiological and psychological well-being of people. People with bad teeth often suffer from harmful effects like poor diet, infections, chronic pain, and a loss of sense of self-esteem and self-love. Dr. Kam Kamangar acknowledges these problems and hopes to address them by campaigning for better dental health. 

The dental health problem is more complex than one would naturally think. Sometimes it’s easy to say that dentists should just do a better job. Period. But many other factors come into play, including dental fear and anxiety, something that many people deal with and stop them from visiting dentists for a long time. Then there are also the rising concerns of practices with malpractice and inadequate protocols. Not to mention a worldwide pandemic that hit most if not all industries in some manner. 

Accordingly, Dr. Kam Kamangar and his team at Agoura Advanced Dentistry have worked hard to set an example for other practitioners while creating campaigns on the importance of dental health in the Los Angeles, California, area and beyond. The primary way they do that is by letting their work speak for itself. Dr. Kam has worked with Sarah Stage, Marcus Gilbert, Chloe Kardashian, Jordyn Woods, and other influential people. He’s also worked with people from all ages and walks of life, providing general and cosmetic dentistry. 

What makes Dr. Kam unique and in high demand is his willingness to learn and adapt to the changing times. He’s never convinced that there is only one way to get better smiles and healthier teeth and continues to look out for other solutions that could give more satisfactory results. He invests heavily in training and technology, using the best of facilities for data imaging to come up with more accurate diagnoses and other dental tools that could give people better and faster results. 

“We’re frequently among the first dentists to perfect and use the newer and more advanced techniques and equipment to better serve the community while enhancing patient’s education in the dental field,” explains Dr. Kam Kamangar. Dr. Kam is also widely known as the King of Veneers, mainly because people have avidly followed all the fantastic cosmetic dentistry transformations he posts on his platforms. On Instagram alone, he has over 160,000 followers and hundreds of posts that get thousands of likes at a time. 

But for Dr. Kam, his work isn’t about the followers or the fame. It’s about the impact. He truly cherishes the life transformation his work brings to people, especially those who have felt ashamed about their appearance because of their teeth. He also pushes better dental practice as a plan at all times. As a way to push forward best practices with other dentistry practices, Aguora and Dr. Kam Kamangar also get involved in fellowships like the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, the University of Southern California Dental Association, and the Los Angeles Dental Society to continue networking and sharing what has made them successful over the years.
