Expert dentist Shawna Omid, DDS, brings more than 30 years of experience in general and cosmetic dentistry to her self-titled practice, serving men, women, and families in Torrance, California, and throughout Los Angeles County.

Dr. Omid earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Dentistry. She subsequently completed residency training at the VA Wadsworth Hospital (now the West Los Angeles VA Medical Center). Before entering private practice, Dr. Omid served as a clinical instructor in the restorative dentistry department at the UCLA School of Dentistry, teaching students for a decade.

Dr. Omid regularly augments her professional skills by continuing her education in various dental treatment methodologies, including implants, orthodontics, TMJ, and cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Omid offers both conventional orthodontic treatments, such as braces, and modern options, such as Invisalign®. In fact, as an expert in clear aligners, Dr. Omid holds the title of an Invisalign® Preferred Provider.

As a dentist, Dr. Omid understands the value of continuity in oral health care. Her team works to provide high-quality dental treatment and aftercare, regularly coordinating with oral specialists as necessary. Dr. Omid always spends one-on-one time with each patient, listening to their unique symptoms and concerns. She uses this information to develop safe, effective oral health plans that improve her patient's smiles and quality of life.

Outside of the office, Dr. Omid is a mother to two wonderful children. She is also actively involved in community service endeavors and loves using her talents to give back to the people of Torrance. Dr. Omid welcomes any man, woman, or family seeking high-quality dental care to her self-titled practice today.
