Salem Dentistry: Roxana Salem, DDS

South East Long Beach’s Atlantic strip still feels like a classic stretch of the old coast road, where surf shops give way to everyday services. Salem Dentistry: Roxana Salem, DDS keeps dental care here as routine as the passing traffic and boardwalk breeze. Across from the boardwalk joggers and weekend farmers’ market crowd, the unassuming storefront handles fillings, crowns, and cleanings with a steady rhythm.

At 823 Atlantic Ave, the office is easy to mark: one short block from the sand, between two palm-shaded side streets. Regulars say they drop in after morning walks when the summer haze still hangs low over the parking lots. Emergency exams and pediatric visits share the same quiet schedule, blending into neighborhood life without fanfare.

Call during the noon lull or late afternoon—(562) 435-8339—and a voice on the other end can usually arrange the next visit. Directions are a straight shot south on Redondo or east on Broadway, then left onto Atlantic. The map will take you right to the curb. Grab a post-appointment smoothie on your way back to the sand.
