I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to provide orthodontic care to so many fantastic families in the Orange County Community over the past 20 years. As your orthodontist, my goal has always been to make each patient's experience in our office as enjoyable as possible by providing the highest quality, state-of-the-art care in a fun, friendly and nurturing environment. It is my practice philosophy that outstanding patient care can only be achieved when there is excellent communication.
Not all orthodontists are board certified. Only about 1 in 3 orthodontists in the country are board certified. To become board certified, an orthodontist has to pass a rigorous set of written and clinical examinations, as well as a comprehensive review of their credentials. The initial process of becoming board certified can take anywhere from five to ten years.
The first thing you will probably notice about this staff is that they are friendly, cheerful and enthusiastic. Each team member was selected, based upon their experience, cheerful personalities and their desire to help people. Our staff has extensive experience in orthodontics, exclusively. They are CPR certified and attend meetings and classes for continuing education to stay current with new developments in our field. They are true professionals!
The entire staff is committed to making each patient's experience in our office a positive one from the first day you arrive in our office to the day your braces are removed and beyond. We find it very rewarding to receive nice notes and comments from patients who were so positively affected by the treatment they received in our office.

Simply THE BEST! We chose to trust Dr. DiGiovanni with both of our kids' orthodontic treatment because my husband, who is a general dentist, did a dental study club with Dr. DiGiovanni and my husband got to see first-hand just how knowledgeable and caring Dr. DiGiovanni is. Forget the fact that he has a beautiful office near Fashion Island; he is so kind and gentle with the kids; he is so experienced and has already successfully treated many of our friends' kids, as well, Dr. DiGiovanni always goes the extra mile and makes sure that whatever issues you have concerns about gets addressed in a timely and thorough manner.
For example, my husband and I really did not want to have to pull any of our kids' teeth, if possible, for orthodontic treatment. So, Dr. DiGiovanni made sure that spacers were put into my son's mouth early on, before the braces even go on. This way, there would be enough space for our son's teeth to grow in and we will most likely not have to pull any of his permanent teeth to make room. Yay! Also, our daughter was referred to go see an oral surgeon before treatment started to make sure that her teeth will grow in properly and to see if any baby teeth needed to be pulled first.
We really appreciate Dr. DiGiovanni taking all of these precautionary steps before treatment even starts, to make sure that the procedures go smoothly and we don't have to pull any of the kids' permanent teeth in order to make their teeth straight, with a good bite, in the end. THANK YOU, Dr. DiGiovanni! We can't wait for the kids to start their treatment. We're confident that the results will be more than spectacular!

My dentist of over 20 years suggested Dr. DiGiovanni for my Orthodontia needs. The office is nicely decorated and you can see they have a ton of clients. I am sure they were good at some point, but they are too busy to take on new customers. I honestly would not suggest them. Too many things went wrong. 1) The online system notifies you of your appointment with the wrong time.
Since I showed up late, I was not able to see Dr. Digiovanni. They continued to take prelim pictures in order to do a 3D Mock Up. 2) They have a special new patient coordinator that assured me that Dr. Digi would contact me with next steps. I am not sure if the new patient coordinator screwed up or this was a huge miss by the Orthodontist. 3) My appointment was on June 8th and I have never heard back from them. I just double checked my insurance to see if they tried to put in a claim and I did not find one. Hope this helps anyone considering Dr. John DiGiovanni's office. Alicia

I am simply in awe! Talk about a well organized practice that makes you feel welcome from the minute you make the initial call. I took my son to an ortho a few years ago and lets just say that the results were less than acceptable. He mentioned that most of his friends at school are a patient of this practice and we should make an appt with Dr. DiGiovanni.
I am VERY glad that we did! There was no pressure and in fact Dr. DiGiovanni recommended that we do minimum work to fix our concerns. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs an orthodontist. The transparency and the genuine care trickles from the top down. Everyone's goal here is to make you feel welcome, comfortable and earn your trust. Professionalism, integrity, warmth, and much more! Thank you Dr. DiGiovanni and team! Alex & Pasha D.

What an all around great experience my family and I have had over the past 5 years at Doctor Di Giovanni's Office. My 2 children and I have all been in or currently are in treatment and have found the office consistently to be friendly, professional, efficient and produce beautiful smiles. The office is beautiful and welcoming. From the moment you walk into the office you know it is a special place.
You're always greeted with a friendly smile from the assistant to make you feel welcome. There is a computer that you type your name into and like clock work you are greeted and seated for your appointment. In 5 years I have never waited more than 5-10 minutes for an appointment and we are usually seen on time and out on time. That alone is impressive from a doctor's office.
The staff is amazing. I need to mention Wendy in that my daughter is very fearful and she always jokes and laughs with her and she even bought her a toy. But all of the staff is notable--well trained, friendly and gentle. I appreciate Dr. Di Giovanni spending time each visit to talk to us about our treatment. I admire his style in that he is very interactive and friendly and very professional.
On more than one occasion he has called or emailed us to follow up on treatment. Great experience, customer service and beautiful smiles. All you can want and more from an orthodontist!

Dr. DiGi and his staff have treated all three of my children as well as myself. The experience has been top notch in every way. Their professionalism and customer friendliness is unmatched. I always felt welcome and well taken care of in every way. The set up of the office with tv screens on the ceiling at each station, games in the waiting room, and a coffee bar made going to the orthodontist a fairly nice experience. When I had to change or cancel appointments, the front desk was always so accomodating and friendly. I highly recommend this practice.

Our 9 yr. old son, Diego, will be completing his treatment with Dr. DiGi and getting his braces off in a couple weeks. It's bitter-sweet as the service and vibe of the office is SO AMAZING! Dr. DiGi and his staff have done an amazing job branding themselves and creating an ideal environment to make the entire family comfortable. Diego has been excited for every appointment!
Staff members willing invited us into the appointment and explained the purpose of each appointment, thus we've understood the entire process. Coming from the Surf Industry, I understand the importance of image, branding and service. the goal is to make each "transaction" seamless, Dr. DiGi & Dr. Cook have done it!
