Their team approach has created an office strategy that allows maximum doctor availability, compassion, experience and the wisdom of two dentists. They consistently consult each other, their community of dental specialists, and their team of laboratory technicians regarding their patients needs and concerns. A thorough and comprehensive diagnosis, treatment plan and result are routinely optimized with this strategy.

Drs. Ozer and Norris display this same enthusiasm outside of the dental environment. The doctors are raising three teenage boys, Tim, Nick and Elliott.

" .....the greatest development in our profession during the last 20 years has been the routine utilization of implant dentistry. Having opportunities to provide this type of treatment has inspired, motivated and fulfilled all of my professional goals. Patients are so thrilled with the esthetic and functional results we can achieve with implant dentistry. " .

Anne was a ranked competitive Synchronized Swimmer with aspirations of becoming a Marine Biologist. She earned her Bachelor of Science from Cal State Fullerton in Biology. Her career path was cemented when she met a female endodontist, Dr. Margaret Pan, who would influence her to become a dentist. Dr. Pan told her that is was a perfect career. It's “Arts and crafts in the mouth” and your patients become your “family”.

She received her Doctorate in Dental Surgery at the University of Southern California in 1984. While in Dental School, she met her husband, Steven Ozer. Drs. Norris and Ozer were married in June of 1984 and combined their practices in 1986. This combined practice strategy has allowed them to raise three sons and enabled them to be at every Spring Sing, band and orchestra concert, parade, honor award breakfast, baseball, basketball, and water polo game. This shared practice approach has also allowed them to have greater availability for their patients. They have provided their patients through the years the same attention and comprehensive care that they would give to their own family members

She feels that one of the most unbelievable procedures available now are implants. “If you have lost teeth or maybe loosing a tooth... we need to talk”! Tooth loss means bone loss which ultimately means facial support loss. Her motto is that “I will treat your teeth as if they are my own.
