They did my xrays and cleaning. No pain at all, they’re really good at what they do. Nice office, Patty was helpful on the process to check what my insurance would cover. They also have a really nice view of SF and Golden Gate :) 10/10 would recommend.

Such a friendly office. I haven’t been to the dentist in 10 years, but they were so warm and welcoming (I was nervous lol). They were also very informative and supportive in helping me learn better hygiene practices. The office also has great views of the bay, which is a plus!

After having experiences with other dentists in the area that felt like dealing with the stereotypical insurance salesman (scammers), it was absolutely refreshing to experience Dr. Fiorella. I felt she genuinely cared about my health and wellness as a human being and wasn't just trying to upsell me on services I didn't need. Super friendly and personable and able to accommodate last minute changes. Happy to have found a new regular dentist :)
