Experience

Dr. Steven Sabatino has been practicing orthodontics here in the Arrowhead, Phoenix, and Scottsdale areas since 1987. He attended the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee for his undergraduate studies and was accepted into Marquette University’s School of Dentistry at the age of 20. Two years into his dental school training, he set his goals on becoming an orthodontist. Upon graduation from Marquette School of Dentistry, he worked part time on the faculty at the dental school and as a family dentist. One year later, he returned to Marquette University to earn a specialty degree in orthodontics.

After completing his Master’s degree and specialty certificate in May of 1987, Dr. Sabatino moved to Phoenix, Arizona. It is here that for over 19 years, he helped build a multi-orthodontist, multi-location practice while attending advanced continuing education courses across the United States.

On April 19, 2006, Dr. Sabatino made the decision to focus his individual orthodontic practice more on one-on-one patient treatment, staff motivation and development, and improved communication with referring doctors. Dr. Sabatino’s 30-plus years of dental experience and his detailed communication with your family dentist will help you achieve your smile potential and ideal jaw function and comfort.

Outside the Office

Dr. Sabatino donates to various local charities and supports many local sports and education programs. Most recently he has joined the Arizona Mission of Mercy where dentists from around the Valley come together to provide dental treatment to more than 2000 individuals who cannot access and/or afford dental care. 

Dr. Sabatino and his wife Jill have been together since college and their two children, Alissa and Alec, live in Arizona. He is an avid mountain biker and swimmer, enjoys Alaskan fishing with his Dad, and loves entertaining and travel.

Treatment Coordinator/New Patient Coordinator

I’ve been working with Dr. Sabatino since 1987 and have been in the dental field since 1973. I love every part of my job and enjoy positively influencing our patients’ lives by watching their smile transformation. Dr. Sabatino is a brilliant, caring, and ethical man, which is why I have remained loyal to his practice philosophy. He only wants the best for his patients and his passion for teaching has allowed me to continue learning every day.

I am a native of Indianapolis, Indiana and I married my husband, Phil, in 1973. I have two children, Scott, who lives on the Oregon coast, and Lindsay, who lives on the California coast. Phil and I love to travel and enjoy visiting our children several times a year. In my free time, I hike, kayak, and do outside activities. We have two rescue dogs and adore them.

I’ve been the financial coordinator for Dr. Sabatino since 1995. I am proud to be working for one of the finest orthodontic practices with other fun, caring, and professional people. It is so gratifying to provide the ultimate experience and results for our patients. Dr. Sabatino doesn’t compromise to achieve the superior results in orthodontic care. Every day is different and each orthodontic case is special. My job entails providing financial services for the office. I also assist in running the operation of day-to-day functions for patients and staff. We are all like family and care for each other and our patients. 

I grew up in Wisconsin and moved to Arizona in my early twenties. I am the mother of three and the grandmother of three. My greatest joy is to be with my family. In my free time, I love to hike and read.

Jill C.

Orthodontic Technician

I have been in the dental field 36 years and began working with Dr. Sabatino in 1995. I take impressions, apply braces, remove braces, change wires, fit splints, and perform all aspects of orthodontic lab work. My favorite part of my job is working with our patients and making them smile. My work is my second family and I love all of them.

I am a native of Phoenix. My family and I are very active. We love to camp, boat, motor cycle ride, and razor ride (four wheeling). I have four kids and five grandkids so far. I also have a lot of animals. I love all sports and regularly do mud runs with my daughter, work out and hike.

Lora

Lab Technician

I have worked on this Team since 2007. In my job, I utilize special mechanical dental equipment to help Dr. Sabatino analyze the jaw function and tooth position of every patient so we can effectively demonstrate Dr. Sabatino’s treatment recommendations. As a lab technician, my primary responsibilities include taking molds, as well as creating slip-ons and positioners. The comfortable fit of orthodontic devices remains very important to our team. I enjoy working here because it’s like my second family. We all love and respect each other.

Born in CharIeston, West Virginia, I’m married with two kids; the oldest is going to college in Florida and the second is in high school playing football at Pinnacle. We love camping, traveling, and doing family things together. I enjoy volunteering at the high school for many of their functions. We have one dog as part of our family.

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.

I started working in the dental field in 1995, and between 1998-2000 and from 2012 to the present I worked with Dr. Sabatino and the team. My job entails educating new patients about the importance of a healthy bite/occlusion and the components of a healthy smile that lasts a lifetime. I present Dr. Sabatino’s philosophy in orthodontic care to our patients. I enjoy working with this team because they are loyal, hardworking and a fun group of ladies. Dr. Sabatino’s passion of achieving excellence in our patients’ treatment is an inspiration to me.

Sherry

Orthodontic Technician/Radiographs and Records

I was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico but have lived in Arizona most of my life. I started working with Dr. Sabatino and the team in 2013 and have been in the dental field since 1997. My job mostly entails directing the patient molds and radiographs. When I don’t have patients in my chair, I help the Team by performing various duties in clinic as an orthodontic technician. The favorite part of my job is working with the patients. I demonstrate that getting molds is an important part of their diagnosis. I also enjoy seeing the start to finish of treatment and the smile on the patients’ face when they have completed their treatment. I enjoy working with Dr. Sabatino and the Team because it feels like we are a family here. Everyone is nice and helpful.

When I have free time I enjoy traveling and spending time with my three year old grandson. My husband and I enjoy going to Arizona Cardinal games. We take care of a lot of aquarium fish (my grandson’s favorite activity) and we have two king snakes named Sparky and October.
