About Paul O'Malley DDS, FIADFE, FABD
This Encino practice provides biomimetic and holistic dental care to patients across the Los Angeles area, working from a stated philosophy of preserving what is healthy, rebuilding only what is necessary, and restoring harmony between form and function. Damaged teeth are rebuilt layer by layer with adhesive bonding and layering systems intended to replicate the biomechanical behaviour of enamel, rather than reduced for full-coverage crowns; inlays, onlays and low-preparation veneers are used as conservative alternatives where the case allows.
Treatment is framed in oral-systemic terms: biocompatible material selection, mercury-free and fluoride-conscious care, metal-free zirconia implants, ozone therapy, root canal alternatives directed at pulp vitality, and amalgam removal carried out under the S.M.A.R.T. protocol with air filtration, isolation, specialized suction and oxygen delivery. Care is delivered one patient at a time, with evaluations that take in bite, posture, airway and systemic health. Clinicians here are recorded with the Academy of Biomimetic Dentistry.

Common Questions
What does this practice do instead of crowning a damaged tooth?
Restorative work rebuilds the tooth layer by layer using biomimetic bonding and layering systems, with the stated aim of replicating the flexibility and fracture resistance of natural enamel rather than covering the tooth with a crown. Inlays and onlays are offered as a conservative alternative that restores strength with minimal removal of healthy structure, using ceramic or composite materials.
How is removal of existing amalgam fillings handled here?
Amalgam removal follows the S.M.A.R.T. protocol. The stated protective measures include advanced air filtration and isolation systems, specialized suction and oxygen delivery during treatment, with the tooth then restored using biocompatible materials. The practice describes its wider approach as mercury-free and fluoride-conscious, with material safety testing applied to restorative choices.
Are metal-free implant options available?
Yes. Both conventional and metal-free zirconia implants are offered, selected for biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and integration, with placement planned to preserve bone. Implant-supported dentures are also listed for patients replacing multiple teeth, described as a fixed option that removes the movement, pressure points and adhesives associated with conventional dentures.
What is offered as an alternative to conventional root canal therapy?
The practice lists root canal alternatives built on biomimetic restoration — rebuilding tooth structure adhesively — together with regenerative techniques intended to protect pulp vitality so that conventional root canal therapy can be avoided where the tooth permits. The stated objective is preservation of the natural tooth rather than its replacement.
What should a patient expect from an appointment at the Encino office?
The office runs on a private, one-patient-at-a-time basis without rushed appointments. Evaluations are described as comprehensive, considering bite, posture, airway and systemic health alongside the teeth, and the environment uses advanced air filtration and toxin-free materials. Patients travel from across Los Angeles, including Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Malibu and Calabasas.
