Dr. Harry White

 

Practice History

In June of 1977, Dr. Harry White started practice in Laguna Niguel, CA.  In 1998, Dr. Zachary joined forces with Dr. White and they practiced together until the summer, 2005 providing quality orthodontics. 

When Dr. White announced his retirement, Dr. Zachary was very fortunate to find Dr. Hanks, an orthodontist who shared their commitment to quality treatment in a positive environment.  Since Dr. Zachary and Dr. Hanks had attended dental school together, they knew this partnership would only strengthen the quality and experience our patients expect.  Every once in a while, Dr. White will break away from his teaching schedule and join Dr. Zachary and Dr. Hanks in caring for our patients – a team of unsurpassed ability and experience!
