Dr. Markos Botros was born in New Jersey. He completed his undergraduate studies in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics at the Albert Dorman Honors College of NJIT/Rutgers University in 2002. Shortly after, he was recruited by a pharmaceutical company to work in their quality control lab as a chemist. While he very much enjoyed the rigors of the laboratory, Dr. Botros felt like something was missing. What he wanted was to work directly with people, caring for them and interacting with them on a personal level. A close family friend, herself a dentist, convinced him to volunteer and her office as a dental assistant. He took her up on her offer and never looked back.

In the fall of 2004, Dr. Botros began his dental education at the prestigious New York University College of Dentistry. After dental school, he completed an intensive, hospital-based general practice residency program at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in 2009. He is an active member of the American Dental Association and Orange County Dental Society.

Dr. Kamila Szczepaniec was born in Krakow, Poland and emigrated to New York City as a teenager. She completed her undergraduate studies in Psychology at the prestigious New York University, College of Art and Sciences. She then remained at New York University, where she received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from College of Dentistry. Dr. Kamila continued her dental studies at Woodhull Hospital in Brooklyn completing General Practice Residency with an emphasis in Pediatric Dentistry. It is where she received the Resident of the Year Award.

She has been practicing full-time as a general dentist since 2008. She especially enjoys treating children, creating an interactive environment to ensure a positive experience for her younger patients. Using her psychology background she is equipped to work with apprehensive individuals and assists them to work through their dental phobias. She focuses her continuing education studies to further her knowledge in minimally invasive dentistry and esthetic dentistry. She strives to create beautiful and natural looking smiles for the whole family. She is an active member of the American Dental Association and Orange County Dental Society.

Serving the Mission Viejo area, our dental office is committed to providing our patients with compassionate and professional dental care of the highest standards in a comfortable and relaxed environment.

Long before Oso Marguerite Dental opened its doors nearly 40 years ago, three doctors had a vision to create the best and most unique dental experience Mission Viejo and South County had ever seen. Dr. Theodore Witt, Dr. Gary Clayman and Dr. Ronald Phiilips envisioned an office that would feature the brightest talents, the latest in dental technology, and the pinnacle of patient care. And they wanted all this to take place in the most serene of settings . On August 1st, 1983, Oso Marguerite Dental was born. Many of our current patients will recall the most identifying characteristic, the lush tropical atriums home to many rare and exotic birds. Patients could enjoy the beautiful sights and sounds during their visits. Because the founding doctors treated and interacted with each patient as an extension of their family, the office grew immensely solely on word of mouth. With this growth came even greater need to remain unwavering and steadfast in their founding vision and principles.

In 1990, Dr. Ronald Takai joined the practice, ushering in a second era at Oso Marguerite Dental. Dr. Takai brought a fresh take on dental care, utilizing advanced technologies and dental materials to improve patient care and efficiency. He embraced the whole body approach to dentistry, recognizing oral health is the window to overall health and well-being.

When Dr. Takai began to plan his retirement, he knew the importance of passing on the history and tradition to doctors who would continue to build upon this legacy. After an exhaustive search, Dr. Kamila and Dr. Botros joined the Oso Marguerite Dental team in 2014.

Dr. Botros and Dr. Szczepaniec are amazing! They have the top equipment and a knowledge staff to match it. The office is friendly and they make you feel very welcome. They are also super kind and go above and beyond for me when I bring my kids with me. Dr. Botros refreshed my smile like no other could. He is very smart and he takes the time to explain the process. I just leave happy and that's cool! Thank to the Doctors and staff that make my visits great!!

Love This Dental Office! Both dentist are very caring and conservative in their treatment plans. Never pushy and always make sure you understand your treatment options. Every procedure I have had completed at this office not only painless but also aesthetically pleasing. My hygienist Diane is very through and sensitive to you needs. I worked in the dental field for 22 years and this office is amazing! Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

Dr. Kamila is amazingly kind, I was very nervous about changing from my childhood dentists and she took the time to make me feel comfortable and a part of the family. Also she's a great at her job, pain free dentist with a cute dog in the office. Update 2020 They've update the entire facility, and it looks modern and stylish! New covid-19 changes are only mildly annoying and you get used to them quickly. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.

I have been going to Oso Marguerite dental for over 5 years now and I will never go anywhere else unless I move out of state, lol. Dr. Kamila, Dr. Botros and their entire team are incredible! So professional and yet they feel like family everytime I see them. I just came back from a cleaning with Ashley and I love her. Super gentle but thorough. I should have started this by saying I have had a previous experience years ago that was less than spectacular and ended up being so scared of the dentist that I didn't go for a few years. Gross, I know but I was terrified. Dr. Kamila was so thorough, gentle and understanding over the next few months while she fixed my teeth! I absolutely love her:). I send everyone I know here! If you're on the fence looking for a lifetime dental care team, look no further, these are your people!

We were referred to Oso Marguerite Dental by our neighbor when we moved into the area and have been exceedingly happy with our experiences. The entire office has proven simultaneously professional and friendly, not to mention accommodating. Dr. Kamila has caught me up to where I should have been and has routine care scheduled out going forward. We have a new dental home.

Dr. Kamila is amazing. I was afraid of dentists and dealing with childhood trauma, Dr. Kamila understood me completely, she made me feel very comfortable and with each visit made me feel at ease. I finished my treatment today, this is the only place I will go to from now on. I highly recommend Oso Margueritte Dentistry.

My family and I have always struggled finding a dentist that could service all our various needs, insurance coverages. After being referred to Oso Marguerite Dental I must say I didn't think It would be any different. How wrong I was. Upon entering the office you immediately knew this was our forever dentist. Mary Kaye is AMAZING! She is the definition of customer care and makes you feel like your chatting with a family member. Justyna took time to make sure I was comfortable and explained everything as we went along. I felt like I was swapping stories with my girlfriend as she talked about my upcoming treatments. How do I explain my experience with Brittany...let me try and give her the kudos she deserves! 1000% professional yet again your girlfriend looking in your mouth telling you "don't worry about it we got this." Never did she try and upsell me on treatments I didn't need or maybe couldn't even afford, she left the options open to me! I have to say that was refreshing. Then there is Dr. Botros...you can always tell a good doctor by those around him! What else can I say! He, like his staff, is at the top of his profession, a great listener, no nonsense, timely and really cares about what you want and what your teeth need. Oh and the technology will blow you away! I never in a 1000 years would have thought I would say I can't wait to go back to the dentist, but I'm here to tell you all don't walk RUN to Oso Marguerite Dental and you will find your Dental Family for life. I promise you your teeth will thank you! ;~)

I could not be happier with Oso Marguerite Dental. In addition to receiving excellent care on my normal dental needs, I recently completed Invisalign treatment. While I was skeptical at first, the ease of treatment and final product are amazing. Dr. Kamila was right- I could not be happier with my new smile!
