About Dragon Dental
Dragon Dental is at 1808 Franklin Street in Downtown Oakland — on the Franklin Street corridor in the northern part of the downtown grid near the 19th Street BART station. The practice is multi-doctor, with Drs. Joyce Tse, Tiffany Tse, Aisha Saradi, Eric Cheung, and Semi Lim providing care at this address. The practice has served the San Francisco Bay Area — including Oakland, Alameda, and Piedmont patients — for over 20 years.
CAD/CAM dental restorations are listed — chairside digital crown milling that allows same-session crown fabrication from a digital scan. For the downtown Oakland professional and commuter population using the 19th Street BART station, a same-session crown eliminates the two-appointment protocol that impression-and-laboratory fabrication requires. Dental sealants are on the service list — fissure sealant application to the occlusal surfaces of first and second permanent molars is one of the most cost-effective preventive interventions in dentistry for reducing caries risk in newly erupted molars during adolescence.
Periodontics is listed as a distinct service alongside periodontal care — indicating that the practice manages active periodontal disease treatment beyond routine maintenance. Scaling and root planing, and supportive periodontal maintenance on an accelerated schedule, are within scope. In the diverse downtown Oakland patient population, managing periodontal disease in-house avoids the referral step to a periodontist that can delay treatment across multiple scheduling cycles for patients who are not comfortable navigating separate specialist relationships.
Sedation dentistry is available for anxiety management and procedure consolidation. Emergency dentistry covers acute presentations for both existing patients and new patients in the downtown corridor. Orthodontics including braces and Invisalign cover the alignment correction range for adults and adolescents. Wisdom tooth removal and cosmetic dentistry including veneers complete the clinical scope.
For Oakland, Alameda, and Piedmont patients at the Franklin Street downtown corridor who want a multi-doctor practice with 20 years of Bay Area experience, CAD/CAM restorations, and in-house periodontic management — accessible from the 19th Street BART station — Dragon Dental's 1808 Franklin Street address covers that clinical combination.
At Dragon Dental Group, Dr. Joyce Tse, Dr. Tiffany Tse, Dr. Aisha Saradi, Dr. Eric Cheung, Dr. Semi Lim, and our highly trained staff are experienced in comprehensive general, cosmetic, restorative, and implant dentistry. For more than 20 years, we have been providing exceptional dental care for the San Francisco Bay area, including Oakland, Alameda, and Piedmont.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Joyce and the entire team at Dragon Dental in Oakland. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted by one of the most polite, professional, and accommodating healthcare teams I’ve ever encountered. Everyone genuinely goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at ease, and Dr. Joyce is exceptional, kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. It’s clear that patient care is their highest priority. If you’re looking for a dental practice where you’ll be treated with compassion, respect, and outstanding care, I highly recommend Dragon Dental.
Dr. Joyce and her staff are super experienced and make me feel very comfortable with any procedure. I just had a major procedure done and can really fall asleep in the chair.

I love Dragon Dental. They're friendly and always explain everything thoroughly. I highly recommend Dragon Dental
The best dental experience I’ve had in my life. As a black woman, it’s nerve wracking navigating healthcare because I’m not sure if I will always be treated with kindness, respect, and care. These lovely dentist did just that and more. A patient for life.
I’ve had a few dental offices, but this is the most consistent I’ve gone to just one location. I absolutely love Dragon Dental. Not only are they right in the heart of downtown, but I feel like they genuinely care about my dental health and truly take care of me during my appointments. Everyone from the front desk staff all the way to the dentist in the back are truly kind, patient, and helpful. Recently they’ve handled my deep cleanings, cavity feelings, and even a root canal lol and I’ve never felt any pain. If you’re looking for a dental office in Oakland that’ll get the job done then I highly recommend this place for you!
I had a very good experience at Dragon Dental. Ana helped me with X-rays and gave my good tips for dental hygiene. I’d recommend coming here if you are in need of a quality dentist
The whole staff takes amazing care of all of their patients. They are attentive and truly care about the long term health of your smile.
A very caring and professional team. I greatly appreciated my hygentist's throughness and Dr Tse taking the time to review my case with me. The office is very clean and convenient.
