Dr. Mogavero is the BEST! My three sons have been under his care over the span of the last 6 years. Each of his team members is extremely personable and professional. I'm happy with their teeth and my sons are happy with all the fun perks of being a patient here (they get points to accumulate towards gift cards for their tooth brushing skills to good grades). Thanks, Team Mogavero!!!

Warning to all military - do NOT go here for treatment if there is ANY chance you will be PSCing at any time during the length of your treatment. We were told that if we moved, we would only be charged a pro-rated amount for services rendered and wherever we moved that they would do the same to finish up treatment. This is NOT accurate. We had to move after only 9 months of treatment (out of 24 months). During that time we paid off 75% of the total treatment cost and received about 30% of the needed orthodontic work. When we got to our new location and visited the local orthodontist we found out

We previously used another children's dentist in San Clemente. When our son was recommended for braces we shopped around. Dr. Mongavero's office was highly recommended. He has offices in 3 separate locations, San Clemente, Mammoth and San Juan Capistrano. They always ensure the kids have a note for school and keep conversation. They greet your children by name and always remember them. It feels like my dentist as a kid who saw me my whole childhood from a small town. They really do excellent work at great prices and will even offer Military discounts and accept TRICARE and payment plans

Dr. Mogavero's office was recommended by my dentist after he suggested getting braces due to pressure on one tooth causing it to crack. Upon entering the office you can tell the people that work here care about their patients. Even though I'm an adult and got adult braces (Invisalign), I enjoyed the warm cookies, gaming room, ski lift chairs in the waiting area! All the people from the front reception desk to Dr. Mogavero are nice, caring people that feel like family. Confirming appointments are a breeze and they work with you to get an appt time that works. If you want a good experience

We discovered Dr. Mogavero shortly after he opened his San Clemente office, and he treated our two daughters. Dr. Mogavero and his staff are competent and caring, in a creatively fun atmosphere complete with giant screened tv's set within a skateboarding/snowboarding theme. They run their office like clockwork: professional and on-time, and the treatment has been amazing, our daughters' smiles are beautiful.

When it came time for us to consider orthodontics for our son, our dentist sent us for a referral to their partner, and from there we decided to get several treatment and

I can't say enough about Dr Mogavero and his staff. They have been beyond patient, loving, and attentive to my son. My son has a mild disability and they have gone above and beyond to comfort him (and not shame him when he broke his expander only 2 weeks after having it). When I call, they get us into the office immediately. It makes my eyes water when I watch how sweet they are and how proficient they are at making my sons experience as great as possible!

I can't say enough about Dr. Mogavero, his staff and his practice. The entire team has made all of us feel very welcome. Two of my kids are 1/2 way through their treatments and things are coming along great. Most importantly, my kids enjoy going to Dr. Mogavero.

Dr. Mogavero is an incredible doctor! I know him for 13 years. He took care of my three sons; and I have to say he did an amazing job fixing their teeth! My boys love going to his office! There is so much fun out there! The snowboarding décor is truly phenomenal! There is a room to study with a computer access and a desk. But you rarely have to wait. The administration and office staff is a group of outstanding professionals that stayed with Dr. Mogavero for years, making sure of the highest standards of care. Everyone is caring, kind and friendly. But what most important is my boys have a beautiful

Exceptional all around!!! Dr. Mogavero and his staff are genuinely caring and truly enjoy their job. The unique office decor has tons of games geared directly for kids and teens. There's a plethora of coffee and even a fresh bake Otis Cookie oven for the parents. I wish I had this experience as a child vs. starring at a cheesy cat poster tacked to the ceiling. :) AAA+++
