Dentists in San Carlos

“I genuinely look forward to my dental appointments, and that says everything! They are kind, gentle, and truly listens — you never feel rushed or dismissed. I trust them completely, and that kind of care is hard to find. If you’ve been putting off the dentist, this is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!“

“Most of my San Francisco dental experience was in small rooms with no natural light or modern technology and though I had two excellent dentists, Dr. Ross and Dr. Stricker, I rarely looked forward to a visit simply because difficult dental procedures in limited space was always a challenge for the doctor and the patient. I had my first visit with Dr. Klebaner on 7/9/2025 and was gratefully surprised by the beautiful, clean office set in an old San Carlos home and the friendly staff. My first visit was two hours, the first half was a thorough examination and X-rays by Dr. Klebaner and the second hour was a cleaning. Everything about this office is exceptional and the reasons are clear. Each patient room is large with windows giving it a cheerful, welcoming feeling. The equipment and chairs in the rooms are technically up to date. Though the office is comfortably designed with a series of open space rooms along wide corridors, it is the staff that makes this dentist office truly exceptional. Dr. Klebaner is that rare combination of competence, humor and concern for a patient. The initial exam was thorough, Dr. Klebenar not missing a single point of needed care after he reviewed the X-rays, examined the teeth and measured the depth of the gums. Most importantly, he welcomes questions and clearly explains future procedures. The office staff are also experienced, friendly and considerate and do everything well. The dental assistant knew how to both take X-rays and read them correctly and the hygienist did a thorough cleaning (almost an hour long) that included four steps and left the teeth cleaned well. It took me almost a year and half to find a good dentist after my previous dentist retired and gratefully I have found one. One last important point, his referrals for outside speciality work are with dentists who are equally skilled and considerate and again, reflect on the high standard of care his office gives to each patient.“

“I recently had my routine cleaning and checkup. The great staff all around at H&L! I couldn’t have had a better dental experience.“

“Dr Clancy is great at communication, educating and walking you through the steps of the checkup or procedure, and his staff are all wonderful people. He has been my extended families dentist for more than 30 years.“

“Highly recommend this clinic! Dr. Shifteh was amazing—very gentle, professional, and thorough. She took the time to answer all my questions and made the whole experience stress-free. Thank you, Dr. Shifteh!“

“Dr. Amin is an incredible pediatric dentist for my 9 and 13 year old. My youngest tends to worry about the dentist and scares easily during the cleaning process based on the tools used, sounds, and the feel of the cleaning process. Dr. Amin is extremely patient and kind. She is gentle and very reassuring. Dr. Amin explains what she is doing, what she will do next and allows my daughter to understand the process before beginning. My kiddo gets to hold “the straw” used to remove the water placed in her mouth during the cleaning process . We have my daughter’s favorite movie on. Dr. Amin has my kiddo pick her toothbrush to take home along with a toy. I feel so happy knowing that she can help my daughter over time grow more comfortable with the cleaning experience.

The environment is clean, kid friendly and environmentally seems peaceful! I feel it :)

Before becoming a patient with Dr. Amin, we went to a different pediatric dentist who in the last few years appeared more frustrated with my youngest daughter not having the kind of understanding they once had. It felt too energetic and intense. This is not my experience with Dr. Amin.

I highly recommend Dr. Amin as a competent, skilled, expert in pediatric dentistry! We love her!!“
