Dr Robert Rifkin

For generations, those in Hollywood who rely on perfect smiles for their careers have trusted their teeth to the man they call 'Dr. Bob' — Dr. Robert Rifkin, DDS. When Dr. Rifkin opened his doors, the concept of aesthetic dentistry was in its infancy. A graduate of St. Louis University School of Dentistry with advanced post-graduate training in occlusion, ceramics, and implant placement, Dr. Rifkin is also an adjunct faculty member at UCLA and a member of the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry, the American College of Prosthodontists, and the Academy of Osseointegration. He has lectured to dental societies worldwide and authored papers on full mouth reconstruction, facial analysis, and aesthetic dentistry. His work on some of L.A.'s most famous smiles — from Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash to Magic Johnson, Janet Jackson, Reese Witherspoon, Megan Fox, and the L.A. Lakers during their championship years — has made Dr. Rifkin one of the best cosmetic dentists in the world.
