I was raised in Lakeside and went on to raise my family there. My career in the dental field began in 1996, and to this day, I love it! Spending time with my two beautiful daughters and my amazing grandsons is my favorite thing to do; however, Disneyland and sports are both close seconds! I will go the extra mile for you, our patient, in attending to your insurance needs, scheduling and providing caring support.

Dr. Morello is the best! Most thorough exam I’ve had. Dr. Morello does a great job of breaking down the information. The office is clean, bright, and conveniently located. Big thanks to all the staff Angela, Vicky, and Rosa for a great visit!

Very nice staff, everything was on time and extremely professional.
We are a family of 4, they were nice and patient with the kids and worked hard to make them comfortable and happy with the work being done with their teeth.
Overall, this is a great place to go take care of your teeth.

My partner and I have been patients of Dr. Morello’s for several years. The staff and Dr. Morello are wonderful, knowledgeable and focused on patient care. Fortunately I don’t have problems with my teeth and I believe that’s due in large part to the importance of preventative care that Dr. Morello and her staff have instilled in me.
In addition, Dr. Morello studies airway dentistry (how we breathe, what factors into sleep problems) and was instrumental in starting my partner on the path to seeking treatment and improving her overall health.

Very happy that I found Dr. Morello! Everyone there is very friendly, the office has a "homey" feel to it. Dr. Morello spent some time with me explaining her approach to dentistry and told me her plan to treat my dental problems, I really learned a lot and was actually excited about fixing my problem! Who would have thought going to the dentist would be exciting?

Dr Morello and her staff have been my dentist for years. Dr Morello is very personable, equally important at least to me, she’s a perfectionist, a most important quality to have when it comes to the person who is working on your teeth, one of the first things people see and critical to our health. All her hygienists are excellent, my teeth are always sparkle clean. I Highly recommend her:-).
