Built on purpose.
We're DCStylishSmile — a boutique dental studio in the heart of downtown Washington, DC, built around the idea that good dentistry starts with paying attention.
We pay attention to what your bite is doing. To the photo that hints at grinding. To the life you live, and what you actually want from your smile.
We're not trying to see 40 patients a day. We're a Washington, DC dentist trying to do fewer cases, better.
Meet Dr. Firas Bukai.
Dr. Bukai is our founder and a general dentist with advanced training in sleep medicine, implant dentistry, laser dentistry, and digital smile design. His career bridges practice in the US with overseas work at Kharsa Clinic and Levantine — a background that shaped the comprehensive approach you'll find here as a Washington, DC dentist.
What sets Dr. Bukai apart is the kind of question he asks first. Why is this crown failing, and what does that tell us about what's underneath? Is the airway playing a role before we talk about an appliance? Where should a veneer fall relative to the lip line, and what do the proportions actually call for?
If that level of attention sounds different from what you're used to, that's the point.

What a visit with us feels like.
It's quieter than you'd expect.
Coffee and tea we thoughtfully chose. A ceiling screen in your treatment room for when you'd rather not watch the instruments. Noise-canceling headphones if you're the kind of person who closes their eyes for the whole appointment. A team that already knows your name when you walk in.
Under all of it: CBCT 3D imaging, a facial scanner, intraoral scanning, CAD-CAM, dental laser, and guided implant surgery with photogrammetry. Not because the technology sounds impressive — because it makes our work more accurate.

Patient Stories
In their own words.
-
I was previously hiding my smile. Dr. Bukai explained my treatment plan in layman’s terms and made me feel more and more comfortable. My new crowns are AMAZING. Dr. Bukai is like Michelangelo.
Max B. -
Three dentists before Dr. Bukai couldn’t find a solution. Dr. Bukai had one right away. One single visit, no extra costs, no sales pitches. No pain during and after. His human sensibility to know what to do — and his continued dental education — did not hurt in my case either.
Michaell M. -
Dr. Bukai and his staff are always very accommodating especially when I have an issue with my teeth. Whenever I consider going to a dentist that is closer to me I always remember their service and tell myself, “Nah! Why should I want to do that!
