Charles Tozzer, DDS

Dr. Tozzer has been our dentist 20 plus years. If there were a six star rating he and his office would be worthy of that. We appreciate all the fine work he and his staff have done caring for our dental health. We appreciate the uplifting greeting we get from the moment we enter office to the chocolate chip cookie we get when we depart. We are very pleased. Professional and expert dentistry.

By far my favorite doctor/​dentist office!
The staff had been their longer than I’ve been alive, which says a lot about their loyalty and love for their job.
Dr Tozzer has an amazing personality that makes the visit so much easier. His calm and cool demeanor makes the visit a breeze, and they even offered fresh cookies on the way out (I politely decline since that’s the reason I had to see him).
If you have kids or just scared/​stubborn to see a dentist, take them to Dr Tozzer. He’s a class act, and his work is second to none!

I would highly recommend Dr. Tozzer’s office. The staff is great and the office is clean. Dr. Tozzer does a great job, and most importantly to me, he is fast and I’m out the door ASAP!

Best Dentist in Orange County!
The staff makes you feel right at home and the homemade cookies are the perfect touch. State of the art equipment with laser cleaning.
I would highly recommend this dentist as they make dental work easy and fun!

If you’re looking for a new dentist or new to the area your search is over! Dr. Tozzer and his staff are personable, caring, and genuine. The care my family has received over the years has been fantastic.
I don’t know many who like going to the dentist. Actually, I don’t know any who really like going to the dentist. But I can say my kids enjoy the trip and the friendly staff make us feel like family. Even when there may be bad news of a more intrusive treatment than the regular cleaning; it’s not a dreaded act. On one of my first visits I needed an old crown replaced. The prep and shots were pain-​free and the whole thing took about 45-​minutes (from shots to walking out).
Dr. Tozzer’s humanitarian work has been recognised and written about in several publications. In case you didn’t know, he’s a dentist with a huge, caring heart and passion for helping. Regular trips to Mexico and Haiti to provide dental care to children and families living in the regions is but a part of his efforts.
The coffee machine and treats are a welcome bonus for parents waiting for kids visits; or for yourself if you’re in the mood.
A++++ for the care provided to my family! An infinite thank you for all you do to improve the world around us.

Dr Tozzer has nice bedside manners and I found him to be quite honest and skillful, a gem in the field. His supporting staff, including the oral surgeon and cosmetic laboratory reps were quite impressive and did fantastic detail-​oriented work. I can only wish to receive similar prime service where I relocated, in Los Angeles. I wish him and his office much success.

I have been a loyal Dr. Tozzer client for around 12 years now and I am always proud to recommend his services to anyone looking for a dentist. Dr. Tozzer and his staff put forth a successful blend of professionalism, levity and familiarity every time I visit the office. One of my memories being a patient of Dr. Tozzer’s is when another dentist told me to get a root canal (my mother set up a surprise dental appointment for me on the East Coast during vacation). Oddly enough, I had experienced no pain or anything that would suggest I needed the operation. When I spoke to Dr. Tozzer, he explained how I didn’t need one at that point and that it was his job to ensure I don’t need any root canals in the future.
Dr. Tozzer’s staff is also very caring, professional and attentive. As others have noted, you will usually be taken care of by his staff and Dr. Tozzer will pop in to give you the über professional work.
Go with Dr. Tozzer. You won’t be disappointed.

My husband and I were looking for a new dentist in Orange County and were referred to Dr. Tozzer. We were beyond impressed! Great and helpful staff, willing to work with our busy schedules, great dental
Hygienists who know what they are doing,
Kind dentist who is looking out for your best interest.
They even gave us a new patient gift! We are excited to be a part of the Dr. tozzer family!

Dr Tozzer and his staff was great. You get a warm welcome friendly feeling when you step into the office. Dr Tozzer was very professional, caring, knowledgable. He will answer all your question and put you at ease with your procedure. I like the digital X-​ray instantly appear on screen and can be blow up to show the affected area.
A few thing to note. 1) Dr. Tozzer will do the main procedure but other people will do everything else. Teeth cleaning was done by a dental hygienist. It was a little rushed and messy. 2) Price can be little high depend on your insurance.
Over all I fully recommend Dr Tozzer for your dental need. Don’t forget the free premium coffee and fresh bake cookie to ease your pain.

Go to this dentist!!! He is fair, honest, charitable, and has taken the time to study the best way to treat his patients — both in terms of their oral health, and their worries and concerns. Dr. Tozzer saw through a fraudulent treatment plan I was given by another dentist and was able to take care of my problems for ¼th the cost. He guarantees his work, and when he’s not busy doing dentistry on Southern Californians, he’s giving dentistry away for free to orphans in Mexico and Haiti. You cannot go wrong at this practice!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Tozzer for more than 20 years, as is my entire family. I would not trade him for another dentist for anything. I’ve had a lot of work done, so I was no easy patient. But he is quick, efficient, compassionate, and painless as possible. And the staff — especially Michelle — really goes out of their way to accommodate you. I’ve recommended him to many friends and all are still patients. Bottom line, he is the best there is.

This guy ROCKS! Painless, quick, friendly! He’s a keeper!

Had to change dentists (bad staff and a retiring dentist), so I chose Dr. Tozzer based upon several friends recommendations. They were right. Attentive and friendly. All the technology of a new office with the experience and a «seasoned dentist». Oh, and they cook you a fresh, hot choco-​chip cookie upon departure (if you don’t scream too much)!
Not sure about giving any medical professional 5 stars, but it really as good as a dentist gets in Irvine or OC!

Why would Unilocal filter my positive review of Dr. Tozzer while leavin the negative review of a liar? I love Dr. Tozzer and his whole staff! they are amaizng and deserve the propper recognition. Unilocal,please include this review on Dr. Tozzer’s page.

Dr. Tozzer is a wonderful dentist! I have been his patient for many years and have always received great treatment from him and his very professional and friendly staff.
Dr. Tozzer is also a genuinely kind and caring individual and he’s conservative in his approach. He doesn’t recommend treatment unless or until he really feels it is necessary. He’s been «watching» a descending upper wisdom tooth for me for the last several years and says that eventually, it will have to come out because my corresponding lower wisdom tooth was extracted many years ago and the upper wisdom tooth will eventually start to dig into the gum below. But because it has not done that yet, he continues to monitor it but never pushes me to have it removed «before it’s time.» That is the mark of a dentist I can really trust!

Charles Tozzer on the first visit created a crown. Started having paint on and off for days, and the had fatigue, a general ill feeling, headache, and sore throat. fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph glands, especially in the neck. Physician said you have Mononucleosis which is a viral infection. It was from Charles Tozzer’s unsanitary tools which apparently he will not wash or dispose of to save money. Finally went to a new Dentist who said the crown was not necessary for that tooth (Charles Tozzer recommended the crown because it costs more than a filling) The crown was done wrong, it was high and pushing me teeth down against the nerve causing internal infection. Had to take antibiotics for 2 weeks to kill that infection.
Charles Tozzer is not recommended. Charles Tozzer caused more harm, charged the insurance to the max and almost killed a perfectly healthy human being.
Charles Tozzer is unsanitary

Most people dread the dentist. I did before I met Dr. Tozzer. I had awful experiences with several other dentists and was petrified to sit in a dental chair. I had neglected my mouth and had a bunch of work that needed to be done. I met with Dr. T, he did the exam and then walked me through everything. He uses conscious sedation and was able to complete the work with 1 visit.
That was over 10 years ago. I take my family to Dr. Tozzer. All my friends and neighbors go to Dr. Tozzer. Yes he is that good.
Dr Tozzer and his staff (including his Mom) are kind and patient (most of the staff has been there forever so it is like family). Dr. Tozzer has that old fashioned way of caring. A few examples: He apologizes before he gives shots and is sensitive to any discomfort. He does everything he can to minimize you being uncomfortable. He personally calls every client the next day to make sure everything is okey –dokey. You just don’t get that kind of caring, especially in the medical and dental field. He talks my kids through the basics so they know what to expect and treats them like his own kids. My kids actually like going to Dr. T’s office (but I think it is the fresh chocolate chip cookies).
You need a few dependable, reliable things to make life easier: a good mechanic, a good dentist and a good friend. Here’s a good, reliable dentist. The other two things you will have to keep Unilocaling to find.

You know that feeling you get when you think Dentist Appt? Yeah, the drill sound, the pain, the anguish! Well that comes with every dentist so get over it! But come to Dr. Tozzer anyway. I’ve been a patient for two years and I’ve never had a bad experience with him or his hygienists.
Dr. Tozzer is good about explaining what he’s doing and what to expect. He has this calming voice that you would expect to hear on the radio. I’ve had a cavity filled and multiple cleanings, all of them went great. They don’t try to oversell you on optional things like other dentists do. I’ve even had one dentist that always upsold a bunch of crap. Even had his receptionist try to upsell when scheduling appts. You DON“T need to worry about that with Dr. Tozzer. He just does what’s necessary to keep your teeth intact.
Oh and when your appointment is all said and done, they offer you a delicious homemade cookie. Funny you would see that at a Dentist’s office. They are some really good cookies though.

I come from a family with horrible dental history so I’ve been to a lot of dentist, Dr. Tozzer is hands down the absolute best. I went to a horror of a dentist and Dr. Tozzer even FIXED what the other idiot did, he explains everything out so you understand what is going on. His staff is unbelievably nice and understanding.
I’ve gotten majorly ripped off by other dentists and even had one tell me I have cavities that Dr. Tozzer told me I didn’t! Ever since that day when he was honest and understanding, I swore I’d come back everytime to Dr. Tozzer no matter where in southern California that I live (yes … he’s THAT good and worth it)
I tell everyone I know to go to him.

Dr. Tozzer is without a doubt the BEST dentist!
I’ve been coming to Dr. Tozzer’s dental office for many years now and I have to say that every visit has been very pleasant. In fact the rest of my family and I look forward to coming for our dental appointments. Although we rarely come in sooner than every six months, we would not mind coming more often! We are always happy to see Dr. Tozzer and his staff knowing that every visit will be a good experience. Dr. Tozzer has a way of putting anyone at ease with his gentle voice and welcoming attitude. He goes out of his way in making sure that I’m comfortable and pain free. I know this well because I have a low tolerance for pain, and never have I had a visit when I felt anything worse than a tiny mosquito bite. His skills are superb — any procedures done on me were always painless and quick, with never any problems afterward. My teeth are in fantastic shape.
The staff are great. Nitta, Heather, and Michelle are the ones I see the most, but the rest of them are all fabulous too! They are consistent in providing high quality service and are genuinely interested in my well being.
The most impressive thing about Dr. Tozzer is his giving attitude. He spends a significant amount of his time and resources to help the disadvantaged. He regularly donates dental care for children in Mexico and other countries with great need. More info can be found here:
With all that said, I highly recommend Dr. Tozzer for all your dental needs!
