At the entrance door to his waiting room, a stone statue of a graceful woman stands as a beacon of love with “BETH” inscribed at its base, a loving nod to his dear mother. Beneath her name, the phrase “Golden Visits” adds a layer of heartfelt sentiment, cleverly honoring his father, “Golden,” whose wisdom and guidance have been pivotal in shaping Dean into the man he is today.
Dr. Carlston‘s adoration for his mother extends beyond this beautiful homage; it’s melodically immortalized in a song Dean wrote titled “Mama,” a heartfelt ode to her enduring influence on his life.
Whether you are a patient or simply passing by, please feel free to stop by and take a copy of his album featuring the song “Mama” on it.

The legacy of love and family extends beyond the garden and into the very heart of Dr. Carlston's practice. Upon entering his waiting room, visitors can note a myriad framed reviews from patients who took their time to write.
On the west wall are two framed pictures, each a window into his past, showcasing the proud lineage of ancestors that have shaped the man he is today. These photographs are a statement of Dean's deep-rooted reverence for his family and heritage, a visible thread that connects the past to the present.

In Dr. Carlston‘s world, family is not just an important aspect; it is the essence of warmth, love, and belonging.

Carlston Culture

DEAN L. CARLSTON DDS

Committed to Providing the Highest Standard of Dental Care

My philosophy is rooted in the principles of tooth-conservating dentistry, where every dental treatment is designed with the utmost respect for the natural integrity of your teeth.

My practice in Los Angeles, CA, is where our patients are treated as individuals seeking dental care. Our patient-centered approach fosters a warm, trusting environment reminiscent of a caring family gathering rather than a clinical visit.

My team and I prioritize open communication, ensuring that every question is answered, every concern addressed, and every procedure explained to your satisfaction.

In building upon my decades of experience, my dental practice has taken a significant leap forward by integrating the latest technology, including the revolutionary use of artificial intelligence (AI). This cutting-edge advancement enhances my practice's ability to diagnose and analyze dental images more accurately and effectively customize treatment plans for each patient's unique needs.

I am committed to providing the highest standard of care in West Los Angeles, CA.
