City Dental Centers has built a network of five dental offices across Southern California, serving communities from Los Angeles to Riverside County. Founded by Dr. Sam Shahoveisi, DMD, the practice attempts to bridge a gap that many patients experience: finding dental care that offers both the resources of a larger group practice and the personalized attention typically associated with smaller, independent offices.
The practice operates locations in Azusa, Corona, Lake Forest, Pico Rivera, and Santa Ana, with plans to continue expanding throughout the region. This multi-location model allows the practice to serve a broader geographic area while maintaining what the practice describes as a neighborhood dentist feel. Patients can call a central number — (888) 624-8933 — to schedule appointments at any location.
From Routine Care to Complex Procedures
City Dental Centers treats patients across the age spectrum, from children through seniors, offering services that span the full spectrum of dental care. The general and family dentistry services include standard cleanings and exams, as well as less common offerings like sleep apnea treatments and emergency dentistry.
For patients seeking aesthetic improvements, the practice provides cosmetic options including teeth whitening, veneers, Lumineers, and Invisalign. On the restorative side, City Dental Centers handles dental implants, crowns, bridges, and root canal therapy, supported by an in-house dental lab that allows for more direct control over the fabrication process.
The practice also offers oral surgery procedures such as wisdom teeth removal and bone grafting, along with multiple sedation options ranging from nitrous oxide to general sedation for patients who experience dental anxiety.
Taking Professional Whitening Home
Beyond the clinical setting, Dr. Shahoveisi developed Bright Bar, an at-home tooth whitening system designed to deliver what the practice describes as professional-grade results outside the dental office. The product is formulated with organic ingredients and specifically designed for use by those with sensitive teeth, targeting teens and adults who prefer to whiten at home.
The development of a branded whitening product represents an extension of the practice’s services beyond the chair, offering patients an alternative to in-office whitening treatments or over-the-counter drugstore options.
As the practice looks ahead, expansion remains a priority. City Dental Centers plans to add more locations throughout Southern California, continuing its strategy of bringing comprehensive dental services to neighborhoods across the region. For a practice that positions itself on accessibility and convenience, geographic expansion appears to be a natural next step.
With five locations already operational and an in-house lab supporting its restorative dentistry work, City Dental Centers has established a foundation that differs from both single-location family practices and large corporate dental chains. Whether that middle ground resonates with patients will likely determine how successful the planned expansion becomes.
