In this episode of The Pretty Profit Podcast, host Marcia Mehrali, founder of Beneath the Surface Spa, sits down with Dr. Anthony Sallustio, founder of Smiles by Specialists. Together, they explore the transformative impact of cosmetic dentistry—without unnecessary procedures. Dr. Sallustio shares how his artistic background and advanced dental training allow him to deliver beautiful, natural results using a minimalist, patient-first approach. Instead of recommending veneers for everyone, he walks patients through conservative options like whitening, bonding, and orthodontics when appropriate.

With over 30 years in the industry, Dr. Sallustio’s practice goes beyond cosmetics—helping trauma survivors, cleft palate patients, and everyday people rediscover their confidence. He explains how modern tools like 3D facial scanning, intraoral imaging, and interdisciplinary collaboration are key to creating personalized outcomes that last. You’ll also hear stories of life-changing smile makeovers that sparked total lifestyle transformations—like weight loss, improved health, and boosted self-esteem.
