Cosmetic Dentist for Manhattan Beach
Manhattan Beach and South Bay patients come to Dr. Jon Marashi for natural, artistry-driven cosmetic dentistry. From his Brentwood studio, he designs porcelain veneers and full smile makeovers built to look real in beach light and on camera, work recognized in Vogue, GQ, and Forbes.
Why do Manhattan Beach patients make the trip?
The South Bay's active, on-camera lifestyle, from the Strand to downtown Manhattan Beach, rewards a smile that looks effortless rather than engineered. That natural finish is Dr. Marashi's specialty. His porcelain veneers are designed individually for your face and skin tone, never generic or bulky, so they read as your own teeth at their best. For results at this level, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, and Redondo patients regularly make the drive up the coast.
How far is the practice from Manhattan Beach?
The Brentwood studio at 11777 San Vicente Blvd is a direct drive north from the South Bay via the 405, generally around thirty to forty-five minutes depending on traffic. Consultations are scheduled to minimize trips, and many South Bay patients combine the design, trial smile, and placement visits efficiently so the project fits around their schedule. Street parking around the building; valet available in the garage (validation not provided).
What does he offer?
The core work is porcelain veneers and minimal-prep no-prep veneers, along with complete smile makeovers and veneer corrections for patients unhappy with prior work. Microscope-precision restorations and sedation for longer visits are available, so South Bay patients can consolidate the project into the smallest number of comfortable visits.
What is the first step?
Every smile starts with a private consultation and smile analysis, where Dr. Marashi studies your facial proportions and goals and outlines a conservative plan. For veneer cases you preview the design with an in-mouth trial smile before anything becomes permanent, and pricing and timeline are confirmed up front.
What does it cost?
Cost depends on the number of teeth and the materials. The private consultation is $475, one hour, one-on-one with Dr. Marashi. Exact pricing for your case is discussed at that visit.
Why does the trip from the South Bay make sense?
Manhattan Beach has access to plenty of competent dentistry, but artistry-level cosmetic work at the level Dr. Marashi practices is rare anywhere in the country. His porcelain veneers are recognized in Vogue, GQ, and Forbes, and the result is built specifically for natural-looking outcomes that survive close inspection in bright outdoor light. For patients investing in a smile they will live with for fifteen years or more, a thirty-five minute drive up the 405 is a small trade for a result that holds up on camera and at the beach.
How is the schedule structured to minimize trips?
Visits are consolidated wherever clinically appropriate. The design phase, in-mouth trial smile, and final placement are typically spread across four to six weeks, with appointment windows chosen to avoid the worst of the 405 in either direction. For longer treatment phases, sedation is available so multiple steps can be combined into a single comfortable visit, which is especially useful for Hermosa, Redondo, El Segundo, and Palos Verdes patients with a longer commute.

Getting here from Manhattan Beach
The studio is at 11777 San Vicente Blvd, Suite 521, in Brentwood, on San Vicente between Barrington and Bundy. From the South Bay this is a straight run north, and the difference between a thirty minute trip and a fifty minute one is almost entirely about which hour you leave. Below is how Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, Redondo, El Segundo, and Palos Verdes patients typically approach it, plus what happens when you arrive.
Driving directions
The 405 north to Sunset Boulevard
The primary route. Take Sepulveda or Rosecrans to the 405 north, continue past LAX and the 90, and exit at Sunset Boulevard. Head west on Sunset to Barrington Avenue, turn left, then right onto San Vicente. From downtown Manhattan Beach this is about thirty to thirty-five minutes in the mid-morning window and closer to fifty in the late afternoon northbound crush.
Sepulveda Boulevard to Wilshire
A surface-street alternative when the 405 stalls. Sepulveda north through Westchester and Culver City, then west on Wilshire Boulevard to San Vicente. Slower in raw distance but more predictable during freeway incidents, and it avoids the Sepulveda Pass entirely.
Lincoln Boulevard to Ocean Park and Bundy
For patients coming up the coast side from El Segundo or Playa del Rey, Lincoln Boulevard north through Marina del Rey and Santa Monica, then east to Bundy Drive and north to San Vicente. A scenic and often steady option outside of Santa Monica's afternoon peak.
Parking and arrival
The building has a covered subterranean garage with valet at the San Vicente entrance and elevator access to the fifth floor. Parking validation is not provided. Metered street parking is available on San Vicente and the surrounding side streets, but for the longer appointments common in a consolidated South Bay treatment schedule, the garage is the practical choice. We schedule South Bay patients into appointment windows that avoid the worst of the 405 in both directions.
Nearby landmarks
- LAX and the 405 interchange
- The reliable timing checkpoint on the drive north. From the airport stretch of the 405, the Sunset Boulevard exit is roughly fifteen minutes further in normal traffic.
- The Getty Center
- Visible on the hillside just past the Sunset exit. If you can see the Getty, you have gone one exit too far north.
- The San Vicente coral trees
- The protected median running through Brentwood. Turning onto San Vicente from Barrington puts the building within a block.
- Brentwood Country Mart
- Five minutes west at 26th Street, a convenient place to decompress after a longer treatment visit before heading back down the 405.
