Meet Dr. Joseph Passamano

As an Irvine native, Dr Joseph Passamano grew up in a household rooted in dentistry.   His father and brother are both local Orthodontists.  The highlight of his career thus far has been to fully reconstruct teeth and restore bites lost to tooth wear.  This offers patients a second chance at a beautiful smile they can’t help but share.  This joy is contagious, and everyone deserves to love their smile.

In a constant strive to further his knowledge and expertise, Dr Passamano graduated with honors from the prestigious University of the Pacific, Dugoni School of Dentistry, in San Francisco.  He continued on to a General Practice Residency at Denver Health Medical Center, which is a level one trauma center with heavy emphasis on surgical and integrative dental approaches to care.  After establishing his practice here in Irvine, he spent his weekends and after hours completing over 300 hours focused on implantology with the Maxi Implant Course through Loma Linda and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. 

Dr. Passamano is an active member of the International Congress of Implantology, American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, American Dental Association, California Dental Association, and Orange Country Dental Society.

When not creating the perfect smile, Dr. Passamano likes making himself smile while surfing, gardening, fishing and spending time with his wife and two beautiful children.  He also fondly recalls winning the CIF championships with his soccer team at Mater Dei High School and currently enjoys coaching AYSO soccer to hopefully instill the same love of the game with his own kids.  If not love of the game, then the love of feeling connected, healthy and active.  Which is truly the key to a happy life.
