Meet Dr. O
Dr. O El-Hillal brings a wealth of orthodontic experience to iSmiles Orthodontics. He is a founding partner of E&S Orthodontics, a successful, full-service orthodontic practice that has been serving patients in Phoenix/Peoria, Tolleson, and Chandler, AZ since 2004. His love of travel and the outdoors brought him to California and developing new ties as an owner of iSmiles Orthodontics. He simply loves the Irvine area and all that it has to offer.
What sets Dr. O apart from the crowd is his insistence on always reaching for the next level of perfection. He has been published in numerous professional journals and has held several leadership roles, including Chief Resident while receiving his training. From day one he also developed a clear vision of creating an orthodontics practice that would be different, based on the latest research and technologies and a “face-driven, no-extraction” treatment philosophy.
After earning his Bachelor’s Degree from Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, PA, he moved on to the prestigious Maurice H. Kornberg School of Dentistry at Temple University – a center of excellence in dental education, patient care, research and community-based services in Philadelphia. There he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree, MBA, Master in Oral Biology, and Orthodontic Specialty degree.
He remains a man in constant motion, using his energy to deliver orthodontic services that are far and above what you will find elsewhere. He’s adamant about staying up-to-date in terms of research and treatment technologies, to become a leading provider of the innovative “Damon” self-ligating bracket system, and a Premier Provider of Invisalign® and InvisalignTeen®.
Plus he’s all about educating the public about the benefits of orthodontic treatment. His informative Friday Focus YouTube videos, covering the gamut in orthodontic questions and services, are also featured on the iSmiles website.
When he’s not busy creating beautiful smiles, Dr. O enjoys spending time with his loving family, running, biking, golfing, hiking and scuba diving.
