I’ve been going to The Dentist Group for about nine years, and they’ve honestly helped me completely turn my oral hygiene around. When I first started, my habits weren’t great, but their guidance and consistency made a big difference.
One of the things I appreciate most is how genuinely kind and welcoming the staff is. They take the time to explain procedures clearly, answer questions thoroughly, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. The entire team reflects that same level of care and professionalism.
Their offices are also conveniently located around the city and have a clean, modern vibe with up-to-date equipment. Overall, I’ve had a really positive experience and would definitely recommend them.

If I'm being nitpicky, appointments can book up, but they always manage to fit you in within the week at either location. Thats why I've been seen by both Dr. Helen and Dr. Alysia, and I'd recommend either without hesitation. Dr. Helen has a calm, no-fuss approach, while Dr. Alysia brings passionate, energetic care.
you really can't go wrong with either one.

I really like my experience at the Dentist Group! It was challenging at first to get seen because of my insurance being out of network, but once they got me into the system, it’s been smooth sailing. They are fast, efficient, communicative and explain everything they’re doing. Very clean and modern facilities. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. I’ve seen Dr Helen for my last two visits, and she’s great. She’s really friendly and took so much time to explain my images, x-rays, and procedures. She’s very empathic and has a wonderful patient-side manor, as does her support team! Definitely recommend!

The dentist is fine; however, it's impossible to schedule with them even as a repeat customer!
I needed to reschedule a tooth cleaning, and they said they don't have any spots available until MARCH (it's currently July).
I've been going there for years, but I guess it's time to find another provider - a 9-month waiting period for any appointment is crazy. It's a shame to see a local business overbook itself so aggressively.

Excellent place! Everyone was welcoming and informative. Alex was super personable and made the X-rays feel quick and easy. Dr. Berd was professional, respectful, and detailed oriented—he communicated the state of my gum health in a way that actually made sense. The cleaning was thorough and comfortable, it definitely felt like high-quality care!
The office is diverse and has a positive, upbeat vibe, which says a lot about how it’s run. It’s also very clean and modern, with top-tier equipment. The front desk went the extra mile to break down my insurance and costs transparently. The location is convenient and the communication is great (love the helpful text notifications). Bonus points for the hypoallergenic emotional support labradoodle! The true MVP. 🐕🦺🐾🦷
Really happy I found this office upon moving back to the city—looking forward to coming back for ongoing care!

About The Dentist Group
The Dentist Group is a general dental practice with two San Francisco locations, in Hayes Valley and Pacific Heights, offering dental implants along with services such as same-day crowns, orthodontics, endodontics, cosmetic dentistry, and more. For patients missing one or more teeth, the practice explains that implants are made from titanium, a body-friendly material that is inserted into the jaw bone to replace missing teeth.
The practice describes itself as focused on combining modern technology with a comfortable patient experience, including digital scheduling and a relaxed office environment. Patients considering dental implants can also ask about the practice's insurance arrangements, since it works with several preferred insurance plans and offers a membership plan for those without insurance.
