Patient was unhappy with the shape, color and size of her teeth. She also had cavities around the gum lines and several failed crowns and fillings. Our goal was to take care of her concerns in one visit since she was so fearful of going to the dentist. She was sedated and fell sleep while we took care of things. Porcelain veneers were made and delivered the same day and patient left with her treatment completed in one visit.

Definitely the BEST dentist I have ever had! A friend referred me to Dr. Kohani. In the past I have not had good experiences with other dentists. As soon as I met Dr. Kohani, I felt very comfortable. He is a very knowledgeable and caring doctor and his staff is amazing. I am currently doing Invisalign with Dr. Kohani. Every time I go to his office it is a very pleasant experience. Dr. Kohani and his staff are always so warm and welcoming. If you are looking for a good, caring, and honest dentist I recommend Dr. Kohani! A. Rodriquez

In 2011, Dr. Kohani traveled to Africa here he met a young girl named Jackie. Jackie suffered from a severe case of cleft lip and palate, and Dr. Kohani knew he wanted to help her. He decided to bring the young girl back home with him, where she lived with him and his family for almost one year.
During her time in the United States, Jackie had several procedures performed to correct her deformities with the help of the Fresh Start nonprofit organization. She then returned to her home in Africa, and Dr. Kohani now aids Jackie’s family financially and is even putting her brother through college.
Today, Jackie is thankful for her bright, new smile all thanks to Dr. Kohani.
