Redefining the Smile: How Dr. Michele Farnoush Is Elevating Dentistry Into an Art Form
In the heart of Newport Beach, Dr. Michelle Farnoush has created something far beyond a dental office. Newport Modern Dentistry feels like a sanctuary where science, design, and empathy converge. For Dr. Farnoush, the goal was never just perfect teeth; it was transforming how people experience dental health care itself.
“I wanted to reimagine what a dental visit could feel like,” she says. “Rooted in science and the latest regenerative and biomimetic protocols, yet elevated through exceptional design and empathy.”
Her practice blends holistic, evidence-based precision with artistry, giving patients not only beautiful, healthy smiles but a renewed sense of confidence and well-being. “It’s dentistry redefined as a form of self-care and longevity.”
Technology has become her paintbrush. “Digital smile design and AI-driven imaging have completely changed the landscape,” Dr. Farnoush explains. “We can visualize outcomes with remarkable accuracy and plan treatments that are both minimally invasive and highly aesthetic, from our same day crowns to naturally beautiful veneers. Advanced biomimetic materials and techniques now allow us to mimic nature so closely that the line between restoration and reality has nearly disappeared.”
Every detail inside Newport Modern Dentistry reflects her belief that luxury is about thoughtfulness, not excess. “Luxury, to me, is the feeling of being genuinely seen and cared for at the highest level,” she says. “Preventive care is the ultimate indulgence; it protects beauty, health, and youthfulness long before intervention is needed.” Her serene environment, attentive staff, and one-to-one connection with patients transform what was once a source of anxiety into an experience of calm and trust. It’s no surprise that her end-to-end concierge service is unmatched in the city: from travel accommodations to 24-hr access, you have five-star luxury at your finger tips.
Balancing clinical excellence with entrepreneurship has taught her that clarity of purpose is everything. “Success isn’t about scaling quickly; it’s about evolving intentionally,” she shares. “Investing in your team, quality relationships with patients, and staying true to the philosophy that drew you to medicine in the first place.”
For Dr. Farnoush, a smile represents far more than aesthetics. “A smile is a reflection of inner health and self-assurance,” she says. “When someone feels proud of their smile, it changes how they move through the world.” Her holistic approach connects oral health to overall vitality, positioning dentistry as an integral part of personal wellness.
In one of California’s most competitive markets, she’s carved out distinction through an integrative philosophy. “We merge medical precision with aesthetic intuition,” she explains.
“From airway and sleep health to nutrition and hormones, we look beyond the surface for sustainable results. Every detail, from the technology we use to the energy we cultivate, is designed to support longevity, beauty, and balance.”
Looking forward, Dr. Farnoush envisions a future where dentistry becomes even more connected to total-body health. “The future is integrative, preventive, and personal,” she says. “We’re bridging health, technology, and design to create experiences that honor the whole person, not just the smile.” By tracking oral microbiome, inflammation, and longevity markers, she aims to elevate the standard of care to a new dimension, one where dentistry becomes not only restorative but regenerative.
“Ultimately,” she adds with a calm conviction that defines her work, “my goal is to elevate expectations for what dental care can be, a practice of true oral health longevity.”
