All Smiles Dental

156, West Portal Avenue, West of Twin Peaks, San Francisco, California

Closed · Opens tomorrow at 8 AM

Orthodontics focus in San Francisco, with dental fillings listed among 26 documented services.

Read full description

All Smiles Dental is at 156 West Portal Avenue in San Francisco's West Portal neighbourhood — on the main commercial street of the West Portal community, in southwest San Francisco along the K, L, and M Muni Metro lines that make the neighbourhood accessible from the downtown financial district and the Inner Sunset. West Portal is one of San Francisco's most stable residential neighbourhoods, with long-term homeownership, low-rise Victorian commercial character along the avenue, and the Muni portal that gives the neighbourhood its name.

Maxillofacial surgery and gum grafting are listed as specific services — clinical capabilities that substantially extend the scope beyond standard general dentistry. Oral and maxillofacial surgery at a West Portal general practice covers the range from complex wisdom tooth removal and alveolar surgery through jaw pathology and biopsy of suspicious oral lesions. Gum grafting — the use of connective tissue or pedicle grafts to restore gingival recession — addresses one of the most common consequences of long-term periodontal disease or aggressive tooth brushing trauma, particularly in an older residential population with decades of established oral habits.

Sleep apnea treatment, oral cancer screening, and endodontics in-house complete a scope that positions All Smiles as a general practice capable of managing clinical needs that most practices would refer to specialists. In the West Portal neighbourhood — where many households have maintained relationships with the same general dental practice for years — a practice that handles surgical, endodontic, and sleep medicine needs without breaking the patient-provider relationship provides significant practical value.

The practice is described as a group of providers with different training backgrounds — a structure that allows the surgical and periodontal scope to be covered by appropriately trained providers rather than by a generalist operating outside their core training. Orthodontics including braces and Invisalign, bone grafting for implant site preparation, and a comprehensive restorative menu round out the clinical scope.

For West Portal, West of Twin Peaks, and Forest Hill patients on the West Portal Avenue corridor who want a multi-provider general practice with maxillofacial surgery, gum grafting, sleep apnea treatment, and endodontics in-house, the 156 West Portal Avenue address provides that combination.

Yerba Buena Dentistry

4.8(182)·1.1 km from San Francisco Downtown
87Smyleee

401, Washington Street, Financial District, San Francisco, California

Closed · Opens tomorrow at 9 AM

Documented for pediatric dentistry in San Francisco, with dental fillings on the service list and 31 procedures on file.

Read full description

Yerba Buena Dentistry is at 401 Washington Street in San Francisco's Financial District — a location within the downtown commercial core, accessible from the Embarcadero waterfront, Jackson Square, and the Transamerica Pyramid corridor. The practice name references Yerba Buena, the pre-1847 village that became San Francisco — a historical acknowledgement of the city's identity. The Financial District address places the practice within walking distance of the dense professional population that populates this part of San Francisco during the workday.

Sleep apnea treatment is listed alongside full mouth rehabilitation, periodontics, prosthetics dentistry, and a comprehensive surgical and restorative scope — services that position this Financial District practice as a whole-health general dental option. For the Financial District professional population, an oral appliance therapy option for mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea managed within the general dental relationship provides accessible non-CPAP management. Oral appliance therapy can be initiated at a routine dental appointment without a separate sleep medicine referral, making it a practical first intervention for Financial District professionals who are diagnosed OSA patients tolerating CPAP poorly.

Periodontics at this Washington Street address — advanced periodontal disease management beyond the scaling and root planing available in general practice — is available in-house rather than requiring a specialist referral. For patients whose gum disease has progressed to the point requiring surgical periodontal management, keeping that treatment within the established general dental relationship avoids the disruption of coordinating multiple provider relationships across San Francisco.

Full mouth rehabilitation and prosthetics dentistry serve the complex restorative cases that accumulate in an urban professional population. Dental sealants and paediatric dentistry alongside adult services make Yerba Buena a household dental option for the residential population in the surrounding Jackson Square and North Waterfront communities. TMJ/TMD treatment, sedation dentistry, braces, and Invisalign round out the clinical scope.

For Financial District, Embarcadero, and downtown San Francisco patients on the Washington Street corridor who want a full-scope family practice with sleep apnea treatment, full mouth rehabilitation, and periodontics in-house, the 401 Washington Street address provides that combination.

How to Choose a Dentist in San Francisco - California

Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

If you want routine or family care

Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

If urgency matters

Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

If affordability matters most

Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
  • Are you taking new patients right now?
  • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
  • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
EditorialUpdated August 9, 2026Independently reviewed

Dental fillings in San Francisco are provided in one of the most multilayered access environments in American dentistry — a city where the Denti-Cal enrolled adult can access composite restorations at the FQHC community dental clinic, the UCSF dental school patient programme, and the Denti-Cal-participating private practice simultaneously, and where the patient whose primary language is Cantonese, Spanish, Tagalog, or Russian approaches the filling appointment with the specific cultural and language requirement that the filling practice either meets or sidesteps. The UCSF School of Dentistry's restorative dentistry training programme produces composite restoration technique quality among the highest in any US dental training programme, and the continuing education programmes available to the San Francisco general dental community through UCSF keep the technical floor for composite placement in the City's best practices consistently above the national average. The undocumented immigrant patient in the Mission or the Tenderloin whose composite restoration access depends on the FQHC sliding-scale clinic rather than the private practice Denti-Cal billing — because the documentation barrier to the Denti-Cal application process has not been cleared — is the patient whose access the SFGH dental programme and Mission Neighborhood Health Center dental clinic specifically address.

Smyleee evaluated San Francisco dental filling providers on composite material quality and placement technique, Denti-Cal billing for the full covered adult restorative benefit, UCSF dental school connectivity, FQHC and community health centre access, Cantonese and Spanish-language team capability for the Chinatown and Mission patient communities, geographic distribution across the City's residential and underserved communities, and restorative outcome consistency. These ten San Francisco practices are the dental filling providers the data confirmed as most reliably delivering quality composite restorations with the multilingual accessibility and Denti-Cal billing that the full range of San Francisco's diverse patient community needs.
