Dr. Neil Sangani, DDS

Hey there! I’m Neil R Sangani, DDS and I am happy to see you visit here on our website.

A little bit about me, I graduated from UCLA with a Bachelor of Science in Anatomy and Physiology. I then went on to graduate with honors from the prestigious USC School of Dentistry with a Doctorate of Dental Surgery. After Dental school, I completed a residency in Implant Dentistry with the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.

Early in my career, I provided free dental services to the homeless population in Downtown, Los Angeles and to children in multiple underserved communities around the Los Angeles area. I also spent two years at Fort Irwin treating our veterans and military families so they would not have to travel over 50 miles for their dental care.

What I love the most about dentistry is the ability to change someone’s life; from helping someone eat again without any pain to creating a smile that makes their confidence soar. I’m genuinely dedicated to my patients and that’s why I’m constantly furthering my dental education across various dental topics including Invisalign and Dental Implants. I apply this extensive comprehensive dental experience to all ages – from youngsters to the young at heart.

During your visit with me, you can expect a comprehensive and gentle exam. Together with our friendly team at Clean Smile Dental, we will tailor you a healthy smile using treatments that are fast, safe, effective, and more comfortable than ever before.

Thank you for visiting our website today, I am honored to have the opportunity to treat you and your family!

Dr. Ashkan Foroughi

I’m Dr. Ashkan Foroughi, I go by Dr. Ash. I was born and raised in a family of healthcare professionals and my journey into dentistry was a natural progression that was fueled by my fascination with both the art and science of Dentistry.

After completing my undergraduate studies, I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from the USC School of Dentistry. During my training, I had the privilege of getting experience in various clinical rotations, mastering the latest techniques and technologies in surgical, cosmetic, & holistic dentistry.

With a commitment to providing the highest standard of care, I stay at the forefront of Dentistry through continuous education and training. I believe in being a lifelong learner and love to educate my patients about the importance of their oral health.

I think it’s extremely important for any healthcare provider to build long-lasting relationships - centered around trust, compassion, and open communication. I maintain a gentle chairside manner and personalized approach to make even the most anxious patients feel at ease.

When I’m not practicing Dentistry, I’m actively involved in community outreach programs, providing dental care to underserved populations and participating in oral health education initiatives. I am very excited to meet you and thank you for your trust!

Much Love, Dr. Ash

Dr. Qaneta R. Syed

My name is Qaneta Syed and I go by Doctor “Q”. I am a long time resident of Los Angeles County. I proudly attended local community schools such as College of the Canyons, Pierce College and Valley College before earning a Bachelor’s of Science degree from Cal State Northridge. I am fluent in English, Urdu, Punjabi, and Hindi.

​​​​​​​I studied dentistry at University of Detroit Mercy in Michigan. While in Michigan I volunteered and traveled with a mobile dental clinic, Titans for Teeth, to assist underprivileged urban youth obtain access to dental hygiene services. I have also done pro bono dental work in the Dominican Republic, Dubai, and Pakistan for children who cannot afford dental procedures. My passion for volunteerism and helping the less fortunate is also demonstrated when I donate my services at Meet each Need with Dignity (MEND), a Los Angeles County Non Profit, that assists less fortunate dental patients with affordable procedures. Other commitments that are not dental related, but I am equally proud of, are my time and efforts to raise funds and awareness for The Special Olympic’s Law Enforcement Torch Run and the Santa Clarita Food Pantry.

When not at work or volunteering, I enjoy leisurely kayaking the harbors off the coast of Ventura and Santa Barbara beaches. Additionally, I take pleasure in staying active with Pilates and Zumba sessions. My husband and I have an active son who keeps us occupied with soccer, baseball, karate, swimming and gymnastics.

I have a passion for dentistry and have an extensive history for developing meaningful relationships with my patients. This includes respecting the patient’s comfort level and the need to be well informed before, during and after the procedures. I always strive to provide my patients with a positive experience, fostering a safe environment, treating every patient’s concern with respect, professionalism and attentiveness. I want to get to know you so I can better help meet your wishes for a healthy and confident smile.
