Hello, inga-ga

 Well, this was a fun question. It took quite a bit of searching, but
I have narrowed down some great references for you. Take a look!

Dentists
 
Dr. Rudolph Saldamando D.D.S.

Beverly Hills, CA 90210

 “With a 27-year practice in Beverly Hills, Dr. Saldamando has often
been referred to as “Dentist to the Stars.” His patient list reads
like a “Who’s Who” of sports, politics and entertainment, including
film directors, internationally well-known actors and heads of state….
For the past five years, Dr. Saldamando has been researching a
revolutionary treatment for chronic and occasional halitosis, one that
goes beyond temporarily masking the problem… Dr. Saldamando’s
discovery of Orasan® has gained the attention of many business
professionals whose work requires close contact with clients. They
come to Dr. Saldamando seeking fast, effective relief from bad breath.
This overwhelming response led Dr. Saldamando to open one of the
nation’s first “Fresh Breath Centres” in Beverly Hills, treating those
who seek a cure for chronic and occasional halitosis.

Acting Schools

  The first three schools came from the recommendation of  “Study
Acting: Where Should You Study?” on the ExitHollywood.com website.
  “When we first started to look around for schools and studios, we
realized that most industry professionals and actors can’t agree on
the same training. Why? Because selecting the best class is such a
personal thing, everybody has to find out for themselves what works
for them. Do you want to sign up for a 2-year graduate school or would
you prefer to start with one class at a time? Do you want to go into
theatre or film? Are commercials what you want to do first? Before
looking for training, you have to figure out what you want to learn!
There are hundreds of schools and studios in Los Angeles, but
unfortunately, lots of coaches have little experience. Some schools
and studios attract students by advertising, "Our alumni work in TV
and feature films," but the ad doesn’t say that their former students
have roles worth mentioning. Also, keep in mind that famous acting
schools or studios aren’t necessarily better than no-name schools.
After doing extensive research, we finally gathered some quality
school and studio addresses together. This research took a long time
and we need your help to make sure we’ve made the right choices. Word
of mouth is the most important way to find a good acting school.
That’s why we’ve created a questionnaire for actors. If you’ve visited
one of the schools we listed and would like to let other people know
about your experience, send us an e-mail in order to receive our
questionnaire.” http://www.exithollywood.com/actorsstudy.html
 
Piero Dusa Acting Conservatory

Larry Moss Studio
1242 3rd St.
Santa Monica
(310) 829-9692
 “LARRY SILVERBERG'S ESSENTIAL handbook, The Actor's Guide to Quality
Acting Coaches: Los Angeles, cites 22 teachers, all of whom make an
equally persuasive case for why he or she is the best choice. Most of
these coaches would get testimonials from devoted students. But Larry
Moss received an unequaled endorsement on March 23, 1998, when Helen
Hunt won an Academy Award as best actress for her role as a
hardship-laden waitress in As Good As It Gets. She included him in her
requisite thank-you's to her agent, manager, and costars.” Read “The
Coach,” by Margy Rochlin. Los Angeles Magazine(3/2001) at
http://www.findarticles.com/cf_0/m1346/3_46/70979878/print.jhtml

Other acting schools that seemed popular:

Ken Lerner Studio
Los Angeles, CA
http://www.kenlerner.com/ 
 ”Ken brings his experiences as a working actor to the acting classes
he has taught for more than 12 years. When not working in films such
as The Story Of Us, Unlawful Entry and Senseless, and TV shows such as
Judging Amy, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Chicago Hope, NYPD Blue, E.R.,
the Drew Carey Show and Dharma and Greg, Ken coaches and inspires
actors, helping them get films, TV shows and pilots. Ken uses methods
culled from his own acting experiences as well as his own teachers:
Stella Adler, Peggy Feury and Roy London, who handpicked Ken as his
first student teacher.”
http://www.thespiannet.com/acting_schools/california.shtml

John Anthony
Hollywood, CA
212-517-5359
 “Teaching in the tradition of Strasberg and Stanislavsky, John
Anthony teaches beginning and advanced actors who are serious about
their craft. The class is designed to allow each actor to work at each
session and address their individual acting problems. Mr. Anthony
studied with Lee Strasberg, Vera Solovia - of the Moscow Art Theatre,
Ned Mandarino - author of The Transpersonal Actor, and John Sarno -
Lee Strasberg's protégé, who was honored by the Hollywood Chamber of
Commerce and the Hollywood community as Teacher of the Year in 1999.
Mr. Anthony has appeared in numerous stage, television and film roles.
Private classes are also available.” .”

 For more references to acting schools, go to the list at
http://www.thespiannet.com/acting_schools/california.shtml. There is
detailed information about each school, but you would have to go to
each website to determine whether you think they are top-notch
celebrity caliber.

 If you are willing to pay some money, you might want to order “The
Hollywood Actor’s Guide to Success.” Information about the book, which
is supposed to include the top Hollywood Acting Schools, can be found
at http://www.hollywoodaccess.com/guide.htm
  
 I hope this list proves helpful to you. It was hard to compile, but
fun just the same!
