Dr. Sako Karakozian, DDS

Dentist
1080 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA
So, here's a little about myself! My first name is Sako, pronounced like ?taco' - I come from Armenian/Lebanese descent but was born and raised right here in the San Fernando Valley. After high school, I took several courses at Santa Monica College, where I was elected president of the Honor's Society and received the SMC Leadership Grant. I attended the globally recognized New York University College of Dentistry, where I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. During that time, I held several board positions on the executive student council and was selected as the University's national representative for the American Student Dental Association. After receiving my Doctorate in Dental Surgery in 2007, I moved to Las Vegas, where I treated patients in private practice while simultaneously teaching at the UNLV School of Dental Medicine. Since then, I've volunteered my time with several non-profits, including Give Kids a Smile, and served as Clinical Director for the Special Olympics Special Smiles program. I love being a dentist, but in my spare time, there's nothing I enjoy more than meeting new people and exploring the world, whether it's through music, art, or travel! I've climbed glaciers in Patagonia, hiked mountains in Sri Lanka, experienced the World Cup in South Africa, and dived the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. I was a bus driver in San Diego, a nightclub promoter in Los Angeles, I've been in a series of Listerine commercials, and I'm currently a dental consultant to ?The Doctors? TV show, having made multiple appearances over the last three seasons.
