I am truly blessed to work in a specialty that is so closely tied to the well-being of other people. I find great satisfaction in coming to work each day knowing that every person I meet will have taken another step forward toward improving his or her oral health and changing the beauty of the smile: all my patients are that much closer to a good bite and function, and a smile that radiates self-confidence!

I grew up in San Jose and attended UC Berkeley for my undergraduate studies. Next came dental school at UCSF, where I received my Doctorate of Dental Surgery. Heading East, I completed my orthodontic residency and specialty training, and received a Master of Science, at the University of Michigan.

It is a pleasure to serve a diverse community and to get to know each patient as a person. I enjoy working with young people children and teens and seeing them grow into strong and confident young adults, ready to take on the world. I equally enjoy partnering with adults parents, working professionals, even grandparents and correcting issues that have impacted their self-esteem for years.

From visit to visit, I see visible changes in a persons mouth, as the teeth are gently moved into the correct position. My patients see these changes, too, and their whole way of approaching life can transform: they walk taller, make eye contact and are quicker to interact with one another and my team, and, best of all, they start to smile without feeling self-conscious! By the time treatment is finished, each person is happier, healthier, and has a smile theyre proud to share!

Through these organizations, I have access to numerous meetings, as well as lectures, seminars, and publications. I attend many annual meetings with my team, to further my clinical knowledge and develop the clinical and front office abilities of my staff.

Continuing education keeps me and my team abreast of the current trends in orthodontic care. By carefully examining new methodologies, technologies, and treatments, we are able to adopt those which improve care and outcome. The latest is not always the greatest and I will not offer any treatment that I would not want used on myself.

I describe myself as a single guy with a large family whom I see many days a week at my office! Truthfully, my patients are like family to me. But, like a grandparent at holiday time, they go home and I see them again next time.

I spend a lot of my free time at the pool, where I can zone out and think about things while Im making my way through the water. As of late, Ive been spending a lot of time preparing for a foreign language proficiency test and putting together an extensive online family tree.

We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.

I joined Diablo Orthodontic Specialists in 2019, to take care of insurance coordination and other administrative tasks. I enjoy interacting with the patients and their families, and providing top-notch customer service. My goal is to be an advocate for our patients to make sure they receive all the insurance benefits theyre entitled to.

I have lived in the Brentwood area for 20 years. I am married with three kids and an amazing Basset Hound that is basically my fourth child. My family enjoys boating on the Delta in the summer and snowboarding in the winter.

I have been a dental assistant since 2005. With Diablo Orthodontic Specialists since 2018, I love how every day is different and how each patient grows and changes as they move through treatment. Its a great feeling to watch someone gain confidence and start to love their smile! Orthodontics is a lot of fun and our team works together for excellent outcomes.

I brought with me more than 17 years of experience as a dental assistant when I joined the Diablo Orthodontic Specialists team in 2021. I work alongside Dr. Yosh when we put braces on, adjust them throughout treatment, and finally take them off at the end! I like to see our patients changes from start to finish, not only in their smiles but in their personalities as well. My goal is to provide my patients with the best care possible.

I began my career in dentistry in 1979, when I earned my certification in dental assisting and later, in orthodontic assisting. I joined the Diablo team in 2012, when I transitioned into an administrative role as our treatment coordinator. I greet all our new patients and make them feel comfortable, take diagnostic records, go over treatment plans, and set up payment plans. I love getting to know our patients, and watching their personalities bloom once they get the smile theyve always wanted.

I grew up in Lodi and recently moved to the area. I have one son, a daughter-in-law, and two wonderful grandchildren, finally making me a grandmother! I love spending time with my family, watching my granddaughter play softball and compete in hip-hop dance, and playing with my new grandson.

We have served residents of Brentwood and surrounding communities since 2006, offering state-of-the-art care in a welcoming environment. For us, orthodontics is about helping people lead healthier and happier livesby giving each the one-of-kind, confident smile they deserve.

In orthodontics, todays trends are toward large, corporate-owned practices with multiple practitioners. Althoughthey may utilize the most advanced techniques and technologies, these practices often provide an assembly-line experience.

We reject the idea that everyones orthodontic needs are the same and should be treated the exact same way. Rather, Dr. Yosh and our team believe in treating each person as the individual they are: learning about their expectations, understanding their concerns, and working with them to design an orthodontic experience that fits who they are and what they want.Not only is Dr. Yosh is integrally involved in diagnosing and treatment planning, but he will be chairside with you at every visit.

You will always be cared for with compassion and respect. We will know you by name, learn about your life and interests beyond straightening your teeth, and remember whats important to you. Well look forward to your visits as time to catch up with a friend!
