PATIENT REVIEWS

Dr. Masaki is very sweet, friendly and always gives extra without additional cost. Her assistants are very nice and understanding. Noreen is such a friendly receptionist, always welcoming and talks stories with you to make sure your day is going great and absolutely makes sure we leave the office with a smile. Definitely recommend her for an orthodontist.

My experience with Dr. Masaki has been a life changing event. I am glad I found a professional who excels in what she does and provides great service. Dr. Masaki and her team helped me to achieve optimum results in aligning my teeth and gave me the smile I could only dream of. I continue to have the highest compliments from many and is very confident with my smile. I couldn’t have chose a better Doctor as my orthodontist. Thank you Dr. Masaki for working so diligently with me and helping me to obtain the prefect smile.

Dr. Masaki is one of the most personable and friendliest orthodontists in Hawaii! She is doing great work at taking care of my daughter’s teeth and we are looking forward to those braces coming off soon! Appreciate her and her friendly staff.

Dr. Masaki and her staff are the best! They are so pleasant and always create a nice experience for my daughter and I. It’s such a difficult time for everyone during this time; however, with the friendly staff, clean environment, making sure we are safe by ensuring everyone wears a mask, practicing social distancing, taking our temperatures and having hand sanitizers available, we have no hesitation attending our appointments! Mahalo Dr.Masaki and staff!!

Dr. Masaki deserves more than five stars. She has the complete package of outstanding knowledge, skill and bedside manners, a true professional and perfectionist that will go above and beyond to achieve the best possible outcome. And, she has a great sense of humor and a great office staff that clearly enjoys working for and with her. Thank you!!

I have enjoyed being a patient of Dr. Masaki.  She is very gentle.  I had no problems throughout my treatment.  The office is clean and nice.  It was always easy to get an appointment that worked with my busy schedule.  I was able to go over to the Kahala office if it was better for my schedule.  There are a couple new staff who are nice.  I never had to wait a long time.  She spent the time working on my teeth each time.  I am going to be getting my braces off next month.  I really love my teeth now.

Very good attention to detail. She is a perfectionist! I am very happy with my treatment so far. I think everything looks great already, but Dr. Katherine has told me that she is in the final stages of detailing. She has two offices. I have been to both because my schedule can be hectic. One is in Kahala and is really nice. You can see the ocean from the chair. The other office is smaller, and quaint. I have a feeling that Dr. Katherine spends more time with her patients than other orthodontists. This I really appreciate because I tend to like to ask a lot of questions, and do not trust many people to look in my mouth, and do things in my mouth. Before choosing Dr. Katherine I went to three consultations with different orthodontist. I felt Dr. Katherine spent the most time answering my questions. ..got my braces off last month and love flashing my new smile. It took me 3-5 days to get used to each retainer. I am glad to be done with treatment

Dr. Masaki was my orthodontist throughout my Invisalign treatment. The treatment went smoothly and the results were amazing; just as promised! She has a wonderful personality, is incredibly kind and most important very knowledgeable! I am very thankful that I was able to find an orthodontist as talented as she who can offer an affordable alternative for an otherwise very expensive treatment. From the consultation, to each visit during treatment and post-treatment (retainer checks) service is always consistent, concise and cordial. Loraine is also a wonderful addition to the office! She is the receptionist who is so friendly and will always greets you with a smile!

I have had nothing but pleasant experiences here!! I decided I wanted invisalign a little over a year ago because I never wore my retainers after finishing braces! (Poor choice on my part) The whole process was super nice and Dr. Masaki was awesome with letting me move at my own pace while still reminding me to stay on track with my trays! Just finished up my treatment & picked up my retainers this week. 🙂

I was referred to this doctor by a close friend of mine. My consultation was very excellent as the staff were very friendly and definitely enforced safety precautions. During my visit, Dr. Masaki went over my options and walked me through the process of getting braces. I’m excited for my follow up as the next time I see them is when I get my braces on. A big mahalo to Dr. Masaki and her team for making me feel comfortable, especially with something that has always been a concern/insecurity of mine. I definitely recommend coming here if you or a loved one is considering getting braces/Invisalign etc. Other notable features I noticed were the COVID-19 precautions. All the areas were separated from each other and the room itself was very clean and tidy. At the door I was greeted by Kotone and she took my temperature with a infrared thermometer. They also advise you to sanitize before walking in. Their waiting area was also tidy. Walking into the exam room they gave me mouthwash to rinse for a minute. Overall service was amazing and exceeded covid-19 guidelines.

Update.. since my consultation for my braces life happened and I wasn’t able to move forward. I was very pleased with the follow up calls from Dr. Masaki’s office to check in and see if I was still interested In moving forward with my braces. Two years went by and they continued to follow up with me. Finally I scheduled my bonding appointment for next month. They actually was able to work with me with my down payment and monthly payment plans that I can afford. I am excited to finally get this done. Two weeks and I’ll be smiling big showing off my braces. 🙂 I’ll post an update after I get my braces on.

Wonderful Orthodontist love the private setting it is what I prefer. Great payment plans as well! Most orthodontist offices are so packed with clients and are sat so close to each other it is uncomfortable in my opinion. Katherine and her staff are kind, professional and does amazing work. I am glad I chose her to do braces on both my son and I. If you are looking for an orthodontics work definitely recommend going to her!

I started going to Dr. Katherine Masaki and she is amazing. She has a great attitude and she’s really funny. The procedure to get my braces were pain-free and a very fast process. I am very glad that she’s my orthodontist because I believe that I am in good hands. Definitely recommend to anyone that need an orthodontist, she is the person to go to! She’s going to be at a new office soon and no longer at the Ala Moana location but just call the office for more details!

Finished my final retainer for my Invisalign.  I have to say I couldn’t be happier!  My teeth are straight and look amazing!  Dr. Masaki, Lorene, and staff are friendly, helpful, and always accommodating, especially with my busy schedule.  I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking to improve their smile!

Dr. Masaki and her staff are amazing! Dr. Masaki did an excellent job on fixing my teeth, she is a perfectionist! When I walk into the office it brightens my day because the staff greets you with a genuine smile and everything is neat, I also love the decor. My mom thinks the same as me and got her braces a couple weeks after I got mines off. If you’re looking for a professional, friendly orthodontist to go to, I highly recommend Dr. Katherine Masaki!

Stunning results. The best orthodontist out there with unbeatable prices and top notch service. Lorainne (receptionist) is great at setting up appointments and reminders. She’s extremely pleasant to work with and is personable. Dr . Masaki and her team is flexible and very understanding to last minute changes. They always try very hard to work around my schedule. After doing some research and shopping around, I was fortunate to find Dr. Masaki; who’s young, innovative and very professional. When I went to her office for a consultation, I told Dr . Masaki “I’m here for a beautiful/million dollar smile” she said “well, you’ve come to the right place” I’m sooooo glad I listened. I had a vision on how I wanted my result to be. I explained it to her and she really took it into consideration. I felt comfortable enough to voice my suggestions and I really felt like we worked together to create this beautiful smile. My results are phenomenal and everyone around me can’t help but notice. It is a life changing event. Thank you Dr. Masaki for your hard work and dedication.

I ended up getting treated by Dr. Masaki after my daughter was treated. I am still loving my straight teeth and visiting the office every so often. Dr. Masaki’s staff sell me a product that helps me keep my retainers super clean and clear. I stop over at the mall to see my ortho and run errands at Longs (always something needed at Longs.) I am still smiling… Good stuff.

I enjoy taking my daughter to her appointments. They are very personable and professional at the same time. They take the time to go over your account with you and making sure that everything is all good! I had some questions about retainers and the options available, because I was thinking of getting my daughter the permanent one and they explained to me what could happen in the future and which option would better suit my daughter as she grows. Mahalo Plenty to Dr. Masaki and her awesome crew!

I came to Dr. Masaki three years ago to fix my overbite and overcrowded lower teeth. She was able to give me the smile I always wanted and made it possible for me to bite correctly. Dr Masaki and her staff are welcoming, kind, and easy to work with. I have throughly enjoyed my experience with them.

I am a patient of Dr. Masaki’s and I recently had my braces removed. I moved to Hawaii over two years ago with braces already on. It was difficult to get someone to take over someone else’s work but Dr. Masaki quickly assessed what still needed to be done and gave me a fair estimate. I decided to pay up front for convenience and received a discount. The one thing that matters the most to me when I choose any health and wellness provider is the end results. She met my expectations to have a perfect smile. She was realistic and honest about the length of treatment and what it would entail. I was always able to make appointments at the times I needed with my busy schedule. One of things I like about her treatment methods is that she is up on the latest and greatest techniques and products. I like when doctors are up on the tried and true methods but also familiar with new and improved techniques. There are bigger Orthodontist groups out there and you don’t get the same personal attention, you end up working with 10 people instead of one, and you often pay more, so I recommend anyone consider her for your orthodontic needs.

Some of my favorite things in working with Dr. Masaki is that she took the time to explain treatment.  She is also a perfectionist and made my teeth extremely straight.  Before treatment my teeth were very crowded and I hated smiling in public.  I think the crowding made my teeth more difficult to keep clean. I am very happy with my treatment outcome!

Dr. Masaki’s office is very friendly and professional. We were debating between braces and Invisalign. They gave us all the information we needed to make the choice that was right for my daughter. She enjoys coming to the office and we are already seeing results on her second visit. We will be coming to see Dr. Masaki for all of our family’s orthodontic needs.

Just a photo update on my progress with my teeth! (B&W) I only had my braces on since late November. So for my teeth to start straightening out this quick is unbelievable (in the best way.) I’m so happy with the progress and seeing how my smile might look like when my treatment is over. I’m glad I took progress pictures because this is happening so fast. That’s another piece of advice that I have, TAKE YOUR PROGRESS PICTURES. It’s so satisfying to see where your teeth were and where they shift. Thank you Dr. Masaki!

Update: I got my braces on! I’m so excited to see the progress in my teeth. This is a really big milestone for me because I’m super insecure about my teeth and I know once I see progress all the pain I’m about to endure will be worth it hahaha. Overall today’s visit took about 2 hours and I chose silver for my elastic color. Special shout-out to the DA that put my spacers in, my teeth were super tight in the back so thank you for baring with it! My next visit is in 2 weeks to replace these blue spacers for the metal. Thank you again Dr. Masaki & team!

I had a really great experience with Dr. Masaki. After finishing treatment and adjustments with Smile Direct I found my teeth less than satisfactory and with no help from the company even though my teeth were still crooked and my bite wouldn’t shut all the way. Dr. Masaki patiently listened to my concerns and helped me make a plan that I could afford. I first got a permanent retainer for my bottom teeth. Later she straightened out my top teeth with aligners. Should have went to her in first place.

We LOVE Dr. Masaki! She has a bubbly, but professional demeanor and her pricing is competitive. We have visited both of her offices (which is extremely convenient to be able to go to either) and we really like her newly renovated office. It is top notch! It is brightly contemporary with all of the most up to date equipment.  She has a lot of experience and knows exactly what she is doing. Dr. Katherine Masaki is a fantastic choice!

I worked with Dr. Masaki to get Invisalign treatment over the past few years (well, less than a year of Invisalign, now just a retainer).   She was more affordable than most of the other Invisalign providers I had spoken with (about ~$1000 less) and was able to get my teeth moved around and nicely lined up.   She’s taken good care of me with my retainer, and has two offices which make it convenient for me to visit, depending on which side of town I find myself.  She’s professional and focused on good customer service and is flexible on scheduling and appointments.

Dr. Masaki and her staff are very kind and do amazing work. Alexa the receptionist is very welcoming. I just finished my treatment & now I have a beautiful smile! I’m so happy with the result. Thanks to Dr. Masaki. If you’re looking for Orthodontist, I highly recommend her.
