My job entails greeting and seating patients, applying and removing orthodontic appliances, sterilization, radiographs and molds, and keeping inventory of clinical supplies.

    Born and educated in Wisconsin, I have been learning about the field of orthodontics since I moved to Arizona in 1987. I helped open our office in 2006. I work behind the scenes during the week where I have administrative duties including banking and payroll. I work on our special projects like updating our website, community marketing and social media posts. The best part of my job is seeing the faces of our patients and team during treatment. I also enjoy hosting employee events and team building. I know we have a special work family here when compared to other dental practices. I call them the Dream Dental Team!

    I am married to Steve with two kids, Alissa and Alec. Both kids are attending school here in Arizona. In my free time, I paint (my paintings are hanging in our office gallery), practice yoga, and play the violin in a community orchestra. I just completed my eighth year volunteering as a docent for our local art museum. I have one rescue dog, Joey, who is my walking partner every morning.

    At the office of Steven Sabatino, DDS, MS PLLC, we work hard to treat our patients the same way we would like to be treated: with respect, professionalism, and sensitivity toward our needs. We understand the expectations of the patients and families we serve, and we do everything we can to make sure that each patient has an exceptional experience at our practice.

    Peer selected PHOENIX Magazine Top Dentist for 18years! In 2018, 2019 and again in 2020,PHOENIX Magazine listed Dr. Sabatino as the MOST-HONORED TOP ORTHODONTIST since the 2003 inception of the Top Dentists issue!

    The best dental staff I have ever had. Patient, understanding, and willing to answer any questions, no matter how odd. They will give you options, and there are no hidden fees. Fantastic orthodontist and team. Melisa A.

    Although there are many reasons to select Dr. Sabatino as your orthodontist, including a lovely environment, exceptional staff, and outstanding care, if you're paramount concern is a long-term healthy mouth not merely a quick temporary fix to straighten teeth, this is your absolute best option. Dr. Sabatinos pedigree, experience, and knowledge are exceedingly superior to any other orthodontists with whom we have met or dealt with. We have several friends who initiated treatment with other orthodontists, often at a less expensive rate only to have to seek out Dr. Sabatinos care when the treatment was not exhaustive or fully integrative. Dr. Sabatino is the orthodontist to whom other orthodontists send their patients when they cannot address all the concerns appropriately. This is the expert to whom many of the top-rated dentists in town send their own children for superior treatment. If you want comprehensive treatment that will address long term whole mouth care you cannot find anyone better. Catherine O.

    This is the friendliest and most knowledgeable practice. I've enjoyed every visit. They are helping correct my bite after I broke my jaw and I'm almost finished! Thanks to everyone who has worked on these teeth over the last year and a half!

    Dr. Sabatino is a fantastic orthodontist who truly cares about his patients. My daughter lost her retainer and he went out of his way to squeeze her in for molds for a new one and coordinated with the vendor to make it happen within 24 hours before we left for vacation. Talk about above and beyond!!! When she lost her second retainer (sigh), he pivoted to get braces on her teeth a few weeks early. At the time of this review, our daughter made it through phase 1 (palette expander and lip bumper). So far, so good! We're moving into braces and I am confident based on the experience so far and their detailed plan that all will go smoothly. You'd be in good hands with Dr. Sabatino and his team!

    Being in the dental field for the last 13 years has allowed me to learn of Dr Sabatino's reputation as a doctor who is meticulous and caring. I know many dentists that can get teeth to look straight, but I know from experience that there are other factors to take into account, with bite being crucial. If teeth are simply straightened but aren't aligned correctly, a patient can have multiple long term complications down the road. Dr Sabatino is very knowledgeable about the many components of a beautiful AND healthy smile. I learned so much more than I expected from my kids' initial consult and the entire process was explained thoroughly. I'm impressed with his friendly and professional staff too. I could tell that my kids' cases were going to be more complicated than average and I had consults with a couple other orthodontists, but Dr Sabatino had so much more insight into how and why and his treatment plans really made sense to me. We are still in active treatment and I'm very happy with our progress! I was never asked to submit a review, but he and his office deserve to be recognized as outstanding providers.

    The office of Dr Steven Sabatino treats us like family. They remember us, ask how we're doing, and make us feel at home. Dr Sabatino is highly skilled and catches things that other orthodontists don't. My son has braces and Dr Sabatino caught that he also needed "Tongue Thrust Therapy" to make sure when he gets the braces removed, his teeth will stay put. My son has gotten emergency appointments when he has broken a bracket, or something is poking the inside of his mouth. We couldn't be happier with the care we receive by Dr Sabatino and his office!

    We had our first consultation with Dr. Sabatino today. Rebekah was great with both of my kiddos. She addressed all of us (kids & mom) equally and made sure we understood what the exam would include. Dr. S spent so much time with each child, examining their teeth, jaws and facial structures. He is thorough and concerned with function, not just dentistry esthetics (aka aesthetics). His approach will be different compared to the first opinion we received with another practice. I'm glad we chose to get a second opinion and experienced his chairside manner as well as his expertise. Highly recommend this practice to both parents and children in need of orthodontic care!

    I would highly recommend Dr. Sabatino. I knew I was in good hands from the moment I met him. He is extremely thorough and skilled, and creates a pleasant and friendly environment for his patients. He was able to help me with a complicated situation with my jaw and bite, and I have been very pleased with doing treatment at his office with him. His staff is friendly and pleasant as well, and it is enjoyable to go in for appointments. I'm thankful for Dr. Sabatino and give him five stars without hesitation.
