He has been practicing dentistry since 2007. Dr. Moya's aim is to cultivate a systematic and reasoned approach to dentistry, delivering an end product that is altogether long-lasting, stable and beautiful, and--perhaps most importantly--exceeds your expectations.

My name is Dr. Zach Ward, and I am excited to be coming back to the bay area after a few years away. I graduated from La Cañada High School in 2008, after which I received my Bachelor’s of Science degree from Brigham Young University in Economics. Toward the end of my time there, I discovered that I did not want a career in economics. A family friend invited me to his dental practice. I saw a few patients get new smiles, and I knew what I had to do. Four years later, I left the University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine, D.M.D. degree in hand, and set out to make my way back to Southern California. Dental school provided me with many opportunities to learn and serve in the nearby community. I was privileged to serve as Class President all four years and was able to coordinate service opportunities for classmates throughout the area. While I felt prepared to treat patients upon graduating, I chose to train for an additional year in an Advanced Education in General Dentistry program at UCLA. This past year, I have been working at the UCLA clinic in Venice and gaining valuable experience in a variety of complex treatments, including endodontics, oral surgery, implant placement and restoration, full mouth rehabilitation, and occlusal management to help with chronic TMJ issues. This training has prepared me to serve you with the highest standard of dental care available to patients today. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Kate, and our three children, Henry (5), Benjamin (3), and Grace (born May 2021). I am and always have been an avid Dodgers, Lakers, and UCLA fan (but will not hold it against anyone for being a Trojans fan). I am thrilled with the opportunity to be a part of this practice. I have always admired their passion for dentistry, his kindness, and his conservative approach, and I look forward to providing the same service to all of you.

I searched online for a good dentist and I found so many of them. I call each number to schedule an appointment but they don’t accept my insurance. Moving forward to my search, I found Zak Dental Downey Office. Setting up appointments was easy and I am glad that they are part of my HMO plan. If you’re looking for a good dentist I will recommend Dr. Moya and his assistant, Roy. Crystal made me feel comfortable, she is very efficient in setting up an appointment.
So hard to find a clinic that will make you comfortable and safe during this hard time. Glad my insurance had Zak Dental in Downey, which is near my area. Though queuing takes patience on both ends, which I have to understand because everyone is new to adapt the system. Virtual check-up went well. Plan, cost, and schedules of procedures are clearly discussed and agreed. Then my turn to undergo the first dental procedure finally came, t’was worth the wait. Professional and friendly. 5 stars for team Downey!
My experience at Zak Dental Downey Office was spectacular! Dr. Zama and his assistant Cielo filled in a gap I had in my right front tooth and my smile has never looked better. I left the office feeling well cared for and satisfied with my overall visit.
I had a great experience with Zak Dental. The staff was extremely friendly and very professional. The office was clean, inviting, and comfortable. The Zak Dental Doctor was so nice and knowledgeable. They were straight forward with me in regards to what I needed. I would highly recommend this dental office.
Excellent service. All the workers were very attentive and helpful toward my son. I would really recommend parents taking there children to the Zak Dental in Downey because they make sure they he feels safe and won’t push if they are not comfortable.
If you are looking for a professional, efficient, yet warm and friendly dental office, this is the place! I have always had a phobia about going to the dentist, but am completely comfortable with Zak Dental and highly recommend this office in Downey.
