Lazzara Orthodontics - Jacksonville Beach
Jacksonville Beach, FL, United States 
I had a great experience with Lazzara Orthodontics and truly appreciate the care from both Dr. L and Dr. P. They are both highly professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Throughout my treatment, they consistently took the time to listen and did their best to accommodate my needs and concerns.
I started my orthodontic treatment at the end of 2022. Initially, the estimated timeline was about 18 months, but due to the complexity of one particular tooth, my treatment has been extended to the end of 2025. While there were moments of frustration along the way, Dr. L was always supportive and proactive in offering solutions and adjustments to keep things moving forward.
One thing I’ve come to realize through this journey is that orthodontic treatment—especially as an adult—is not always about achieving absolute perfection. There are natural limitations, and sometimes the goal is to find the best possible balance between function, health, and aesthetics. This perspective really helped me better understand and trust the process.
The entire team has been patient, attentive, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome. I’m very grateful to have found this practice and would highly recommend Lazzara Orthodontics to anyone considering orthodontic treatment.
This is an amazing group of people! I recommend anyone that needs an orthodontist go to see Lazzara.
Getting braces as an adult was something I had needed my whole life, but fear kept me from doing it. I’m so grateful I finally took the step, and even more grateful that I chose this orthodontic team.
From my very first visit, they took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel completely comfortable with the process. Every appointment has been professional, efficient, and right on time, which I truly appreciate.
The entire team is kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about their patients. If you’ve been putting off braces like I did, I highly recommend coming to Lazzara Orthodontist —you will be in excellent hands!
On time, always really friendly, and never hesitate to answer any questions.
Skilled, friendly and efficient - I was very impressed with Lazzara Orthodontics. I feel confident that my treatment will be successful.
