Dr. Peter Zakhary, DDS, owns and leads Buena Park Dental Center, where he treats patients of all ages with gentle, thorough care. Our office offers evening hours Monday through Wednesday and Saturday appointments, so fitting a dental visit into a busy week is easier. Dr. Zakhary and the whole team welcome new patients, whether you're due for a routine checkup or dealing with a sudden toothache.
Patients often say Dr. Zakhary takes time to explain what's happening before any treatment starts, in plain language they can actually follow. He carries forward the patient-first values set by founding dentist Dr. Mona Fahmy while adding his own focus on implants, cosmetic dentistry, and same-day emergency care.
Dr. Zakhary earned his dental degree in 2009 from the University of the Pacific Dental School. Since graduating, he has focused on building skills across general dentistry, dental implant placement and restoration, cosmetic smile design, and complex restorative care. As practice owner, he keeps his training current so patients get treatment that is both modern and comfortable.
Dr. Zakhary believes a dental visit should never feel rushed or intimidating. He takes time to answer questions and walk patients through their options before moving forward with any treatment. This patient-first approach shapes every appointment, from a simple cleaning to more involved restorative work.
Dr. Zakhary provides general and family dentistry for everyday needs like cleanings, fillings, and exams. He also places and restores dental implants for patients missing one or more teeth, and plans cosmetic treatment for patients who want a more confident smile. When a toothache or dental injury can't wait, he offers emergency dentistry with same-day appointments whenever possible, so patients in pain get seen quickly.
Buena Park Dental Center is a two-doctor practice, which gives patients a real choice depending on what they need. Dr. Zakhary and Dr. Mona Fahmy each bring different strengths, and many patients see both doctors over the years for different types of care.
Both doctors work out of the same Buena Park office and often coordinate care, so there's no wrong choice. If you're not sure who to see first, our team is happy to help you decide. You can also read more about Dr. Mona A. Fahmy, D.D.S. on her own page.
Dr. Zakhary is affiliated with professional organizations including the American Dental Association (ADA), the California Dental Association (CDA), the Orange County Dental Society, and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, reflecting his focus on implant dentistry. The practice also supports oral health awareness through its involvement with the American Oral Cancer Foundation Board.
