Dentists in Oakland

“Only second appointment in, but time in and out has been efficient. Child has really hard time being with new people or doing new things. Granted we did a lot of prep for this appointment, staff here definitely made them feel comfortable and even got them to laugh during exam. I’m certainly next appointment will go even better. Parking is usually easy to find on street. The tokens at end of appointment are always a highlight. Hope to stay here for a long time“

“Dr Nam and his staff was to able to see me in an emergency situation and I am so thankful they deserve five stars.“

“Update: the payment issue was resolved.

I went for a cleaning procedure in September. The procedure itself went fine.

Before the procedure, I was told that my insurance covers the entire cost of the procedure. However, after the procedure, I was told I need to pay the entire fee since my insurance doesn’t cover it.“

“I have been seeing Dr. Pratt for over 20 years now. He installed several of my implants in the early 2000s and is now doing a fantastic job at my quarterly periodontal visits helping keep the pockets around my implants in check. I highly recommend his services. His staff is very friendly. We always have a lot of fun.“

“My first time at Laurel Smile Dentistry. My previous dentist cancelled me three times, and as 2025 ended on 31 December, Laurel Smile Dentistry took me in the same day. They were courteous and kind. I was able to get my teeth cleaned, rescheduled for a crown replacement, and referred to another service to treat an infection growing in the root of the tooth. They use state-of-the-art technology in this industry, and I am grateful to them for keeping my teeth and hygiene secure.“

“Dr. Butler is an amazing gentle soul. Her staff are also amazingly kind, gentle, and professional. I’ve been a patient for over 5 years now and have had more than my share of work done. I highly recommend this office.“

“Great experience with Dr. Solomon and her team. She is professional, gentle, and caring. Dental visits usually make me anxious; however, Dr. Solomon and her team have made me feel at ease by frequently checking in with me and my comfort throughout the visit. They are very attentive. I also appreciate that she never pushes unnecessary treatments, which has been the norm at every other dentist I’ve been to.“

“I have been a patient of Dr. Thomas for over a year, and every visit has been consistently pleasant. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, trustworthy, and transparent. After spending years visiting other dentists in the area prior to coming here, I can confidently say he has never been pushy, misleading, or overpriced. His care truly stands out, and I am always recommending him to family and friends. It is such a relief to finally have a dentist I can rely on without feeling the need to look elsewhere.“

“My kids are attending this Dentustry since the born so many years already kind and profesional team we love to come here.“

“I just LOVE this dental office. I was introduced to Dr. Victor Chaney in December of 1979, I have been a patient ever since. My children all grew up with Dr. Chaney. I go in every 6 months. I can’t imagine going anywhere else. Now we have Dr. Alex who joined the practice. What a wonderful addition. Both Dr. Vic and Dr. Alex are so personable and caring. All their work is professionally done with a gentle touch. The patient’s comfort is always their number one concern. All the office members are so friendly and helpful. I recommend this office to everyone.“

“If you are wondering which provider to go with, I highly recommend this crew at Total Health Dental for all your orthodontic needs! I got Invisalign and worked with them for over two years. Michelle and Leo at the front desk were so warm, easy-going, and charming-- we became buds! And Dr. Ceaser was the best. Very kind, talented, and patient with all my Invisalign fine-tuning and mishaps (I even lost my retainer one time). He did an amazing job on my teeth, and I feel so confident. I have ortho trauma previously, and working with them helped me feel comfortable in an ortho space for the first time in my life. Would choose them over and over again!“

“Friendly staff, with superb service. Dr. Choi was caring and thorough, and took his time to explain and performed an excellent job on me.“

“My experience here has been great! Everyone is so nice and they always treat me good. Everytime i come i never have to wait super long for them to take me in. They always ask if anything is bothering me. Paulina is a great person she is always checking in on me asking how am i am and asking how my day is going, I really like her a lot, she is always super nice and caring. Shes always giving me advice for anything i tell her and she is always caring about me. She also let me try out color to see if i like it and if dont she will let me change it.“

“I’m incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Li as my dentist. If I had found him sooner, my teeth would be in much better shape.

I had a molar (tooth #13 on the left side) that had been deteriorating under the care of a previous dentist for the past two years. That dentist eventually told me the tooth was beyond saving and referred me to his wife for a dental implant. Trusting my instincts, I decided to seek another opinion and was recommended to Dr. Li at Oakland CT Dental.

Dr. Li not only saved my tooth, but he also restored hope when it seemed lost. The tooth was in terrible condition, and I had missed the window for early intervention. However, Dr. Li took the time, care, and effort to make things right in a truly compassionate and gentle manner.

His professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for his patients are unparalleled. Dr. Li truly looks out for the best interests of his patients and tailors his approach to each individual’s needs. I can’t thank him enough for everything he has done!“

“I had the best dental experience I’ve ever had yesterday with Dr. Higgins and the entire team. Everyone was kind, professional, and made me feel completely at ease from the moment I walked in. Dr. Higgins was gentle, thorough, and clearly cares about his patients. I left feeling so grateful to have found this office!“

“I can’t say enough great things about Lake Merritt Dental! Tia and Dr. Ivy were absolutely fantastic. I came in for multiple root canals, and they took care of me right away with such care and professionalism. Both of these ladies are so gracious and calming, which made all the difference for me while sitting in the dentist’s chair. They truly go above and beyond to make sure you’re comfortable. This is officially my new favorite dentist, and I couldn’t be happier with the work they’ve done on my teeth. Highly recommend!“

“Dr. Gaime is INCREDIBLE. I've been a patient if hers for over 10 years and consistently have a wonderful experience with her. She is thorough, efficient, and so warm. She really cares about you as an individual.
And Tram on her team is equally as wonderful. She is so incredibly helpful and pleasant. Going to see them is like going to see old friends, not the dentist! Lol“

“Dependable , honest , caring , professional and most important friendly and reassuring !
Gentle and informative with total information and procedure explanations you can understand .. A practice where you are considered family … :)“

“The whole family has been going here for 15 years and eagerly regularly recommending him to friends. Nothing but good things to say about Dr. Young and his team. I will say that, while people do turn over there through the years, the feeling is like you're with family (the sane ones, not the crazy ones). Always trust him and his team!“

“Dr. Eric Yabu is an excellent dentist. He spent a great deal of time with me to instruct me about how to properly care for my teeth. I have been following his instructions, which have resulted in my teeth now being in such good shape that I have not needed anything more than a cleaning and a polishing at my last appointment. His staff is also excellent: his dental hygienists and his office help.“

“Dr. Louie is the best dentist I have ever had. He really knows what he's doing. And he is kind and smart.“

“Great practice all around. Staff is super nice, hygienists are gentle and thorough, doctor is knowledgeable and kind.“
