About Santa Monica Periodontics & Implant Surgery
Santa Monica Periodontics & Implant Surgery operates on Wilshire Boulevard in the Northeast area of Santa Monica, California. Gum disease treatment ranges from a deeper professional cleaning for early inflammation through to more involved periodontal care once bone around the teeth has started to be affected. Bleeding gums are usually the earliest sign, and the early stage is reversible with proper cleaning and better daily plaque control.
Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.
A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.
Day-to-day oral health still comes down to the basics between visits — brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between the teeth, and limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount eaten at once. Regular professional care is what catches whatever those habits do not.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.

Dr. Kamin and his team are the crown jewels of dental care. (Sorry. I had to.) Everyone is exceptionally friendly, and the hygienists are always the loveliest: upbeat, thoughtful, and genuinely caring. Dr. Kamin is wonderful, too. I feel lucky a friend referred me years ago. They’ve moved from the Palisades to a gorgeous top-floor space on Wilshire in Santa Monica. Parking is easy, the office is beautiful, and the view from the chair while someone is exploring your mouth is truly jaw-dropping. Literally. And then there’s the soundtrack playing softly in the background. Dr. Kamin keeps the rock station on and sings along while he works. I haven’t seen him at karaoke, but I’d put money on a strong performance. Great people, great care, great views, great tunes. And a great way to keep your teeth healthy and give you plenty to smile about.
Everyone is so nice and knowledgeable. Dr. Kamins always has the best attitude and so does his team. They are patient and kind and explain everything they are going to do before they do it. I honestly feel like they all truly care
Connie, Yanni, Jasmine and Dr Kamins were wonderful this morning. I arrive a little early for my appointment and was accommodated graciously. This was a first rate patient experience in every way!
Fantastic staff, they have always treated me with the upmost respect and kindness. In addition, Doctor Kamins is the most caring and compassionate human, who' is an incredible dentist! You can't go wrong coming here!
Dr. Raschkovsky and staff, thank you for using your skills and talents to heal and help people. And, the professionalism offered. We are able to walk out with a brighter smile. GOD bless you. - Patricia 😃
This became my dental office after the Palisades fire destroyed my former dental office. Dr Kamins and staff relocated here and it’s been a flawless transition.
Dr. Ricardo is so easy to trust and he doesn't take unnecessary risks. During my procedure to remove an implant, extract a wisdom tooth and do bone and gum grafting, he stopped to explain the wisdom tooth removal was problematic because it was so embedded in the jaw and he did not feel comfortable with potential nerve damage after accessing X rays and more exploring. His work on cleaning the disease and setting up a recovery program was comforting. He is great!
Dr. R and his team truly stays connected with their patients. A good dentist from quality of service to good bedside manners are hard to come by. I drive for an hour from home because it’s important to me.
Every time I walk into the office, I feel like family, from the front desk to behind the scenes. Everyone is happy and kind ! Both Dr. Kamins and Dr.R are miracle workers.!! I feel very well taken care of by all... highly recommend!!
