Zahrowski Orthodontics

We couldn’t be happier to have Dr. Z as our daughter’s orthodontist. His staff is excellent and caring. You will be treated with respect and compassion. I highly recommend Dr. Z!

Dr. Z is fantastic and all of his staff are always so friendly and helpful. I am so glad that we were referred to them because they made the process so easy. I have recommended them to all of my friends who are dreading the years of braces. Almost sad to see it end :)

Took both my children to Dr. Z. My son is 13, but not yet ready for braces. My daughter is 10 and needed spacers. We love this office. The staff is so caring and sweet to my daughter. We never have a wait and often get taken early. I love that Dr. Z is not a big believer in phase 1, unless absolutely necessary. I work in dental heathcare field and it is a treasure to find a provider focused on thepatients need and not upselling. We are definitely fans!

Our local dentist highly recommended Dr. Zahrowski. My son was 18 months into braces with another orthodontist and we were not seeing any progress and had no communication with the orthodontist as to his treatment progress. Feeling frustrated we went in for a consultation only to discover my son had older brackets (not used much any more) and he confirmed that his last year and a half had been wasted. We consulted another orthodontist (who also agreed that we had a bad orthodontist) but felt like Dr. Zahrowski’s office was the place for us because the staff was very friendly, professional, and they explain what is done to my son’s braces every visit. My son has been going now for about 6 months and there is such a huge difference in his teeth (they even replaced his brackets with the newer ones). We have seen more progress with Dr. Zahrowski in just a few months than our last year and a half with our other orthodontist!
My youngest son is now going to him (he was also at the bad orthodontist who just had him on a retainer) and it turns out he has the worst case (one side of the jaw is growing faster than the other which is setting off his center teeth and bite). Dr. Zahrowski explained the plan for him and told us that everything he is doing is to correct his jaw and avoid jaw surgery in a few years (which my niece had to go through). In the 2 months he has been going, his jaw has already moved and lining back up. I just feel like other orthodontists wouldn’t have noticed this slight detail and Dr. Zahrowski really looks into the teenage facial growth in addition to the movement of teeth. I just wish I found him 2 years ago!

Dr. Zahrowski is an expert orthodontist. He is very friendly and kind. Our dentist recommended Dr. Zahrowski and we could not be more pleased. He is focused on doing the right thing and he is so very honest! We go to the Laguna Niguel office. Dr. Z, Sally, Brandy and Jeff are so kind; you feel like family. They are very caring and it really makes those that are going through braces actually happy to come to the appointment as they really care about each person. We know several friends and acquaintances that go to Dr. Z and everyone is extremely happy. As a family, we highly recommend Dr. Zahrowski.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Dr. Z and his staff are. Dr. Z literally saved my mouth due to a poor orthodontic experience I had as a teen. Having to go through braces a 2^nd time isn’t fun for anyone, but I knew I was in good hands and am so thankful for my dentist telling me «This is the guy you want… trust me.» He is always so positive and encouraging throughout the entire process. Sally is always at the front greeting you with a smile and even when she calls to remind you of appointments, you can feel her smiling through the phone! Also, his staff takes the time to get to know you. You’re not just the ‘patient in the seat’-you’re a person. My oldest child just began her orthodontics with Dr. Z and they’ve approached a very overwhelmed tween with humor, compassion and sensitivity to help her adjust to everything that’s going on.

Dr Zahrowski and his staff are running the best orthodontics practice in Orange County. Both our kids go there, and every visit is a pleasure. If you are considering Ortho work, you will be in good hands with Dr. Zahrowski.

Dr. Z and Sally are the best. My son recently had an accident where he lost a tooth and chipped another (with braces). It happened on a Friday late afternoon and when we called Dr. Z, he and Sally met us at their office and he fixed up my son’s teeth until he could see our dentist and eventually the endodontist the next week. My daughter and my son have used Zahrowski Orthodontics and we have been very happy. Sally is amazing how she greets every patient (and parent) by their first names. I would highly recommend their office to everyone!

Dr. Zahrowski and his staff are excellent. All three if my kids have gone to him. They treat you like family!

I cannot say enough about the wonderful experience my family and I have had with Dr. Z and his staff. I call them my ortho family as I have been with them now for three years. Dr. Z put on my braces and those of my daughter. In a couple of years, he will put braces on another of my daughters, too!
Dr. Z and his staff have been wonderful throughout the entire process. From the beginning, my family and I have received caring, thoughtful, professional advice and instruction on how to best maintain our braces. Without getting into details, I will say that through good times and bad (I was laid-​off from work a week after getting the braces installed), Dr. Z and his staff were simply amazing!
Dr. Z is an artist who continues is continuously strives to ascend in his profession and in his patient care, although I cannot imagine anyone does what he does better. I am happy to recommend this office to anyone I know is looking for the best multi-​year orthodontic experience possible. Rock on, my ortho family!

Dr Zahroswki and his staff are excellent. My daughters dentist referred him when she needed braces. Dr Zahroswki made getting her 1^st braces very pleasant and painless. My daughter has absolutely no issues with going to the office for any follow ups or issues. I highly recommend Dr. Zahrowski for your child’s orthodontic work, he has a very friendly and professional staff. I Highly recommend him. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my little one.

Dr Zahroswki and his staff have been wonderful. I was referred to him after my dentist was unable to straighten my teeth. Dr Zahroswki made getting my teeth straight and did it with ease. My teeth are perfect now. Each time I went he was always on time. In and out of the office which was very nice. The staff is very friendly and professional. I Highly recommend him. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you!

I went to him for myself and for my child. My dental assistant friend recommended as Dr. Z worked on patients with difficult teeth problems. He is friendly and very skilled, and Sally in the office is the most helpful and nicest.
He was so honest that he wouldn’t put more braces on my teeth after having to stop braces because of gum problems, while some others in the area wanted money so they wanted to put braces on me. He doesn’t use those flashy «sales ladies» like other orthodontists but takes his time to do the consultation himself. I like that because this is an important health issue!
He didn’t want to put braces on my child until ready, while again other doctors didn’t care and wanted to start right away. He did the same for my friend’s child.
He is very skilled and has been voted by other dentists to be «Best Doctor» (forgot the name). Highly recommend.

Dr. Z has been my orthodontist for the last ten years. He and his wife Sally staff two offices (the other in Laguna Niguel). They’re both friendly and helpful.
Essentially my entire neighborhood had their braces done by Dr. Z in middle and high school. That’s a reputation, people.

I was referred to Dr. Z from my regular dentist as I’ve wanted Invisalign forever. I found his office manager and assistant who took photos of my teeth to be very professional, caring and pleasant. I had other consults so when Dr. Z came in $ 500 higher, I balked a little. As this comes out of my pocket, I called a month later to see if there was anything they could do about the price. I was going to move forward with Dr. Z but I did need to see if there was any way he could take a little money off. The office manager put me on the line with the Doctor, which is not best practice as it puts the patient in a very awkward position. I explained that I just wanted to see if there was any wiggle room in the price and he really didn’t answer me. He asked me who my other consults were with and when I told him they were with general dentists and not ortho’s, he got a little nasty with me as if I was questioning his expertise (which I wasn’t). He then said «Well I wish you luck.» I told him that I hadn’t decided who I was choosing, I was simply asking if there was any flexibility in the price and I’d be remiss not to ask. He was very rude and dismissive — it’s the closest to a hissy fit as I’ve ever seen a medical professional behave. Basically I was going to move forward with treatment with Dr. Z until he spoke to me this way. I’ll never go to him or recommend him based on the way he spoke to me today. Very unprofessional.
I’ve worked in medical marketing for 20 years and I happen to know that it’s very common for people to ask for a lower price when it comes to elective procedures not paid for by insurance so I’m not sure why he was so put out by it. And if he felt that I was offending his expertise and experience, as a grown man well into his 50s, he should have been able to hide his anger. Just another reason why an office manager should never put a doctor on the line with the patient when it comes to fees

I would highly recommend anyone who’s looking for an orthodontist. Dr. Zahrowski is extremely patient and nice~ I get really scared going to orthodontist cause you’re opening your month for someone that’s basically digging into your mouth! If you’re uncomfortable, you wouldn’t want to do that.
My sister got her braces here 13 years ago, and I had mine while I live din Canada. Well, guess what, now I have cross bite because I’m don’t wear my retainer! So, I’m back here again~
Thus far, experience has been very very nice. Everyone here treat you like a little kid, and honestly, you’ll need to be treated like one when you go to an orthodontist cause you don’t want anyone that’s mean to mess with your mouth!

I was referred to Dr. Zahrowski a few years ago by my dentist. I absolutely love how I was treated by everyone from day one. Professional, friendly, but the most important part… top notch service and care. Dr. Zahrowski is VERY qualified and he’s more of an artist… trust me, I am somewhat of an expert in this field. Sally is always cheerful and has helped me work out payments and appointments time and time again. I couldn’t be happier. The staff is very cool, too. I’ve even gone mountain biking with Jeff and my daughter considers Tammy a friend – and my daughter is very picky with her friends. So there you have it.
