Sometimes dentists are lion tamers. Kings and presidents open wide for Bernard Touati, but he is careful, he says, to keep his own mouth shut.
His cabinet is in Paris’s Golden Triangle, where Chanel, Dior and Prada are perfectly aligned with the perfumer Caron and the impeccable chocolatier Fouquet. There is no plaque on the wall announcing his presence; he’ll see Diane Von Furstenberg on Yom Kippur if the film director Danièle Thompson asks him to, and Madonna can come in in a pinch, but this isn’t a walk-in clinic. He wouldn’t accept payment from Von Furstenberg; she gave him an I.O.U. for two dresses at her boutique instead. “He’d be worth moving to Paris for three months to see,” the designer says.
He grew up with Sidney Toledano, the C.E.O. of Christian Dior, who can watch what’s going on in the Dior showroom through the window when he’s being treated in Touati’s office. “My father wanted me to become a doctor, like Bernard,” says Toledano, a touch wistful. “It would have been simpler.”
Touati, born 63 years ago in Casablanca, Morocco, is fit, athletic, good-looking; also, low profile, a family man and famous. Married to Lily Buda for 41 years — they met in high school — he has three daughters. When the middle one, an actress and singer named Élisa, found that the producers of a Spanish film she was in had changed her name from Touati to Tovati, she kept the new name, so people wouldn’t keep asking if he was her father. Her duet with Tom Dice, “Il Nous Faut,” was a big hit this summer.
Touati knows a lot about a few world leaders, and, because he is diplomatic, as much about their mortal enemies. Surrounded by security, he started treating Boris Yeltsin in the Kremlin hospital in 1996 and treated Vladimir Putin in the same hospital, surrounded by even more security. “The only words I can say in Russian are ‘open your mouth, close your mouth, don’t move,’ ” Touati says.
He looked after the teeth of Mikhail Khodorkovsky, now in prison in Russia for financial crimes, and still treats the regime’s archenemy Boris Berezovsky, who has political asylum in Britain. Mrs. Yelstin gives him homemade walnut cakes and jars of malossol pickles every time she sees him. He also treats the wife of Mikhail Fridman and other oligarchs like Alisher Usmanov, who owns a major share in England’s Arsenal football team.
