John H. Trotter, DDS, MS Orthodontics

My teenage daughter had her braces installed at Dr. Trotter’s office. She has had several incidents where she needed her braces adjusted on the weekends and even on one occasion after hours. Dr. Trotter always accommodated her by opening up his office and correcting the problems only teenagers can create. I appreciate his patience and for always going the distance in doing excellent professional work. Thankful and Grateful…

Dr. Trotter’s orthodontics office makes it so much fun to have braces that my kids remind me and hound me hoping that it’s almost time to go in and get their braces tightened.
Both of my kids have had braces (1 child needed a 2-​part procedure) and everything has always been explained well to me, all makes sense and you can tell that Dr. Trotter has a great overall perspective of teeth growth and development in general and pays attention to the patients’ individual issues as well.
They’re very clear as to each step and were willing to try to stagger my kids a bit to limit the amount of overlap with their billing. The staff are all incredibly warm which makes it very welcoming. They have fun seasonal contests in the office — with prizes. The kids receive incentives for doing a good job with their dental hygiene. My kids are greedily collecting the gold coins in anticipation of some great prizes!
The office is spectacular — they really thought of everything to make kids comfortable (movie screening room, iPads, games, beautiful scenic painting on the wall) and the parents comfortable (coffee, tons of magazines) with plenty of seating and computers to use if you need to.
As an alumni, I love that Dr. Trotter is a USC Orthodontist. However, that alone would not have brought me in. He was a referral from our dentist Dr. Frank (Enriquez) — whom we love as well!
I highly recommend Dr. Trotter’s practice to any of my friends looking to get braces!

Both my girls have Dr. Trotter as their Orthodontist for the past several years. Recently they both got their braces off and get compliments on their smiles all the time. Dr. Trotter is active and a generous donor of his time in the community. He front desk staff is very friendly. I recommend Dr. Trotter to all my friends.

Son just finished 6 years of ortho with Dr. Trotter.
Best experience ever. I have no complaints what so ever.
We have been so pleased that we have recommended them to many friends and co-​workers. If you are decided between orthodontists, look no further. It doesn’t get any better!
Office is the most beautiful of any that I have ever been to in my life!
We will miss you Dr. Trotter!

My daughter has been going to Dr. Trotter for a while and I really liked his office and facility, with model cars and a tropical beach theme. But what I really liked it is the way explains procedures and how his treatments work, and what to expect. My daughter really likes him too.
So when I decided to get my own teeth fixed, I went there too. Again, he explained the process well, and this time I had the experience of treatments. When I asked detailed questions, about how teeth move around he was very patient and explained in detail. He is amazing and makes it all simple, fast and efficient. Also things move on time, which is not always the case in medical offices. His staff is friendly, cheerful and helpful too. I like that they will text you the day before an appointment to remind you. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing orthodontic work done in the south bay area.

I took my daughter to see Dr. Trotter and she was very apprehensive about seeing an orthodontist. Dr. Trotter was amazing with her, explaining everything he saw in her mouth, what he would be doing in the future and making her feel at ease. My daughter is now actually excited about her future braces! His office was inviting and the staff was wonderful!

I had the best experience at Dr. Trotter’s office. He helped realign my teeth after two episodes of wearing braces. He and his staff were personable, professional and timely. Thumbs up all the way!!!

If you look up the word «gentle» in the dictionary, you’ll find a picture of Dr. Trotter’s face.
