King St Dental

It’s a beautiful office with fancy drinks, however they want to do unnecessary tests (X-​rays) and sell their products, first. Your dental health is the secondary priority. It also looks like they are manipulating their reviews on Unilocal…
I went in for a very minor issue that they tried to turn into a huge one! Thankfully I called another dentist and got a second opinion before any work started. If you’re going for cleanings or minor stuff then maybe take the chance, but if you need a filling or root canal — go elsewhere!
My girlfriend also had a negative experience with a lot of products being pushed on her she didn’t need.

King Street Dental only wants to take your money!
They told me I had 3 cavities, when I went back to get them fixed, they did a repair in one tooth that wasn’t even detected the first day. They also told me I needed a laser treatment (so glad I didn’t do it bc it wasn’t covered by my insurance). They did the same to my husband, they said he needed some surgical procedure done immediately and were just trying to push unnecessary things. We went for a second opinion and turns out my husband and I have zero cavities and no problems at all.
One of the doctors also started reading the Bible to me while she was working on my teeth and invited me to her church, which was extremely uncomfortable and wierd.
Also, they called me after a year telling me that we owe them money for some appointment that didn’t even exist!
The only good thing I can say about this place is that Emily, the receptionist is super friendly and kind.

Dr. Alexa is excellent. I had 4 cavities removed here and thought she did a fantastic job. I also recommend Dr. Yvette for deep cleaning. The ambiance at the clinic is great, staff is so attentive and knowledgable.

Dr. Maria is the best. She has taken care of my teeth for years, and treats me like a rockstar.
She’s helped me with basic care, through a bike accident, and with straightening up my teeth!
Her staff is super friendly as well. The best dental office in the city!

I am an international student in SF. This was the first time I saw the dental in here. King St Dental gave me 100% trust. All of people in there were so nice. They explained every detail for me to let me can totally know every steps. I did not feel any pain during whole treatment.

The staff at King Street Dentall are extremely friendly and patient. My son, who has special needs, is always treated kindly and they are very patient while cleaning his teeth. In fact, it is because of Dr. Maria that my son can finally sit in a dental chair and have his teeth cleaned — previously he would not even sit in the dental chair! It is nothing short of a miracle! They were so great with him and I am now a patient there and am so pleased with everything — appointments start on time, exceptional staff — Dr. Maria is the best! — and easy online communication. I highly recommend Dr. Maria and her practice!

I can recommend Dr Alexa, she is skilled and professional. I came in for extensive repair due to an infection I was under the belief i fell into a money pit until I did my research. This establishment is legit!

Absolutely WORST dentist I’ve ever been to. Dr Maria spent more time figuring out how she could gouge my insurance than visiting with me… They often recommended services without explaining their cost, tried to charge me for things without telling me, she even had one of her staff perform services SPECIFICALLY that stated only the Dr could do them.
They are the shadiest medical practice I’ve ever seen, they are lucky I didn’t sue.
They even had the gall to try and get me to sign a piece of paper than indemnified them (and their families, etc) for ANYTHING… so like their kid could hit my car, and I would’ve just signed away my right to sue… I’m surprised they are still in business, I heard from many of my coworkers how bad this place was, but only AFTER I shared my story.

I have been very fortunate to have found Dr. Maria approximately four years ago. Although I had always gone to the dentist on a regular basis, my teeth were at that point where many of the fillings and crowns needed replacing. Also, the work that I had had done happened over several years from various dentists. You could «see» that my smile captured these periods of «work». At the time I started going to Dr. Maria, I was blown away at the change in technology integrated with the latest medical treatment that was available and that she updates as it becomes available. I immediately experienced Dr. Maria’s commitment and passion to provide her patients with the latest and most advanced treatment in the field of dentistry today. Seriously.
I will cut to the chase and say that today I have a beautiful smile that brought with it a whole new way that I approached my everyday life. I know this may sound funny but very important for myself is greeting my family, friends and strangers with a genuine and warm smile. A smile is such an amazing and easy gift that we can share with each other and Dr. Maria masterfully created a beautiful and natural smile for myself. She has also been involved in my preventative and maintenance dental care for these past years. While I have moved to Southern California since the beginning of 2015, I still return to San Francisco to receive her care.
If your oral health is as important to you as the rest of your physical health then, I highly recommend Dr. Maria. I assure you that when you are sitting in her dental chair, none of your other doctors could care more about your health, well-​being and appearance than she does.

The staff here are great, but there is something about the dentist that is off. I would not recommend this practice to anyone.

Such a welcoming dentist office. This was my first time here and I was a little nervous but they were all so accommodating and friendly, I felt right at home! Camelia helped me with my insurance and could not have been more helpful! Everyone was great and I will definitely coming back here for my future appointments :)

I would recomend this practice. Very high end and state of the art dental equipment. The service is outstanding, the staff is professional and Dr Maria is a wonderful dentist and Camelia explained to me what needed to be done, proposed the options and let me make the decision. Thank you King Street Dental, you rock !!!

Dr. Maria and the entire staff there at King Street dental provide everything you would want from a dental facility. Friendly personnel, modern equipment and practices, and supplemental information/​education on her diagnosis/​advising are the major reasons I stayed with King Street Dental for my entire two and a half year stay in San Francisco.
Once I moved to San Francisco, in the fall of 2012, I put a lot of energy into the research regarding finding a new dentist. I had neglected my teeth for a few years, and had gotten a new job with insurance, so I wanted to make sure I made a good decision when it came to deciding who would fix numerous cavities that needed attention.
Once I came into King Street Dental for an evaluation, I knew I had found my dentist. I like that Dr. Maria is very education orientated. She gives you lots of information behind her evaluations, if you want it, and I feel better informed to make decisions on what to do next.
Honestly, all the «up-​selling» remarks below seem to be unwarranted. We’re all grown ups here. Let the dentist do her job and advise, and then you can make a decision on what you would like to implement.
I feel that I was very lucky that I found such a great overall establishment, especially since there are a lot of dentists to pick from in the city.

Dr. Maria is the best! She made sure that my teeth are well taken care of especially since I haven’t gone to the dentist for a long time before seeing her. I really like their approach of being preventative. I have no idea what the other reviewers are saying because Dr. Maria just gives you advice on what they can do for your teeth. At the end, it’s the patient’s decision to do it or not and they respect that.
I never felt pressured into doing something I did not want to get done. If you have financial issues and can’t afford to have them do everything, they help you out and make a plan on what needs to be prioritized. Then you go from there.
The staff is super friendly and accommodating! It is always fun going to the clinic because everyone has a great personality and fun to talk to. The place has really good updated equipment.
I highly recommend this place!

Finally! My search for a dentist is over! I was previously going to this woman in Belmont, only because my mother had been her patient. My previous dentist was rough, did not numb me enough and she wasn’t enthusiastic about my dental care at all.
Now that I’ve been going to Dr. Maria, I have been excited to get my dental care going again. She is very accommodating and is gentle when she works. Also she has a great personality and is a joy to talk to when I come into the office.
I highly recommend coming here.

These guys are great. Modern facilities & equipment, super friendly staff, big windows with a nice view of AT&T park (great people watching) and Dr. Maria is hilarious.
Maria: Have you thought about teeth whitening?
Me: You think I need teeth whitening?
Maria: Well, you live in California now
They’re super professional and gentle, I fell asleep during my last filling with all the tools in my mouth. It feels like somewhere in between a dentist and a spa!

I waited until my second opinion before I reviewed this place. After not having a cavity my entire life, the staff here not only suggested I make 4 follow up cleaning appointments, and also informed me that I had 7 cavities. They also tried to sell me several expensive prescription products.
I ended up getting a second opinion to find out that I don’t have any cavities, and that I wouldn’t be needing follow up cleanings, because my teeth are fine! This place should be reported.

Dr. Maria de los Reyes was my dentist when I lived in California and boy did I miss her when I moved to New York. My local dentist is so unreliable. I’ve had problems with her crown fits: the first one kept coming off and the latest one causes food to get stuck constantly. I tried another dentist who said she could try to fix it but couldn’t guarantee 100% satisfaction. When I planned a vacation to San Francisco, I made sure to schedule an appointment with Dr. Maria.
The office is beautiful. It looked and felt more like a spa than a dental clinic. The staff were very attentive and caring. I felt very relaxed and welcome.
I had my teeth whitened. The extra care and process resulted in a whiter smile than I’ve ever had with other professional dental whitening procedures. I could really see the difference in my smile unlike the two other bleaching procedures done by two different dentists. The extra care to protect my gums resulted in a painless aftermath. The warm neck pillow, lip balm, and ear phones to listen and watch my program of choice made the 2 hour process a breeze. She recommended I switch toothpaste brands and explained why it was important at my age to go with Sensodyne since it is less abrasive. My other dentists never gave any such advice, they always seemed to hurry me out the door for the next patient. Dr. Maria takes time to explain, instruct, and answer any questions, not just about the current procedure, but on everything you want to ask about total oral care.
She looked at my problem crown and said I should tell my previous dentist to replace it because I should not have the food-​catching issues. I knew it! I wished I had more time so she could get it done because I’m sure Dr. Maria would do it the right way.
I highly recommend this clinic. I wish she would open a branch in New York!

My search for a dentist in san francisco continues. I really wanted to like this place. The location is great! It is a short walk from home and the facilities are state of the art and clean. Really modern and nice.
The staff is also super nice and friendly. mostly women.
I have an issue with grinding at night. It could be due to stress. One of the hygienists put it lightly to me that I should put my faith in God. It was early and I was a bit shocked to be getting this talk at my dentist office. She also wore a lab coat which confused me because i later realized she was not the dentist.
I also have an issue with my gums starting to recede. My last dentist attributed this to my mis-​use of sonicare but here they seemed to think it was because my teeth were dirty. I did admit to some laziness around flossing in the back of my mouth. but aside from the two issues, my teeth have never been a huge source of concern for me
Dr. Maria de los Reyes came in and recommended two large out of pocket expenses for remedying my grinding and gum recession. One was a night guard which I have been told would help. The other was a deep clean with laser, which I have never heard that I needed. Especially since I brush twice a day with Sonicare and floss nightly. The laser dental cleaning isn’t even accepted by the ADA which surprised me that they would recommend that to me.
Before this visit, I thought I wanted something simple from my dentist. I had wanted easy billing, painless service. Now, i also want no upselling.

After moving to CA in 2009, I started going to Dr Maria for all my dental work and i can genuinely say that she is one of the best dentists I have met. I really appreciated the fact that she takes her time and provides her undivided attention to her patients. For all my dental work that she performed, i was always given options for treatment and never once felt pressured into anything I didn’t want to get done. The location of her practice is perfect and state-​of-​the-​art too!
If you are looking for a new Dentist in town, I would greatly encourage you to consider Dr. Maria! She and her ENTIRE staff went above and beyond to attend to all of my questions. The are all very kind, professional, and fun to be around… as crazy as it sounds… I actually had fun at the Dentist! :)
If I could give them a 6 star rating I would! Highly recommended!
