Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Frial and his wonderful staff helped my teenage daughter achieve a beautiful smile several years back, so when I wanted to improve my own smile as an adult, I knew exactly who to go to! Dr. Frial and his staff are consistently attentive and detail oriented and go above and beyond to make sure all needs are met. I was especially grateful that Dr. Frial was able to work within my timeframe and goal of having straight teeth for my son’s upcoming wedding. The new confidence that I had to smile during the wedding and seeing the photos afterwards as a result of Dr. Frial’s work is indescribable! I am so grateful for my new look and would highly recommend Dr. Frial and his wonderful staff to my family and friends.

Best South OC Orthodontist
If you want great results, Dr. Frial and team is the one you need to see. It was amazing how throughout the process he would explain what needs to be done so that the end results come out better than ever. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for braces.

New Hollywood Smile!
We are very pleased with Dr. Frial’s work! Dr. Frial and his staff are easy to work with and provide a family friendly atmosphere. Our daughter’s treatment took about two years to complete and included having some teeth pulled. We were a bit apprehensive to have her teeth pulled but were confident in Dr. Frial’s expertise. She is super happy with her new smile! She is smiling so much more now and is often complimented on her new Hollywood smile! Thank you Dr. Frial and staff!!!

Amazing!
We interviewed 3 orthodontists before choosing Dr. Frial. He didn't pressure us to start treatment, and he took the time to explain the plan for our son. We did phase 1, which gave our young teen a great smile. Then, to our surprise, a few of his adult teeth took much longer than expected to come in. Dr. Frial let us wait several years for nature, but it became clear that oral surgery was the best option. Within months, the phase 2 braces went on and soon our son had an amazing smile. We highly recommend their office, the staff is always helpful and friendly and answers texts and calls immediately. We felt like we were in good hands at all times. Thank you Dr. Frial and staff!

Dr. Frial is an excellent orthodontist
Both my boys had braces from Dr. Frial, and he did an excellent job, so when I needed braces myself, I went to him as well. He is friendly, reassuring, professional, extremely knowledgeable, and everyone in his office is helpful and competent. Just a lovely experience all around. And compared to the prices that we were quoted in Laguna Beach, he is very competitive.

Dr. Frial & staff are AMAZING.
Dr. Frial is very good at what he does. He has a lot of experience and is very gentle with his patients. Explains things so its easy to understand and takes the time needed for his patients to get the best results. Carmela and Grace are also very professional and wonderful to work with. This is my second daughter (out of 3) that has braces treatment with Dr. Frial and it has been a wonderful experience. I would recommend Dr. Frial to all of my friends and family.

Dr. Frial and the entire are so caring. They all made my experience of doing Invisalign as an adult very easy. And, it felt like it went by quickly. Dr. Frial is very skilled and takes his time to adjust the Invisalign trays. He also did traditional braces for both my kids and their smiles look great! I recommend Dr. Frial to all my friends!
