Dentistry done differently

  • Specialized dentists

    You receive care from a specialized team, including board-certified prosthodontists, dentists with training and experience in tooth restoration and replacement.

  • Comfort first

Paying for dental care at UCSF Health

UCSF Health Dentistry is a fee-for-service practice, which means we don’t contract with dental insurance companies and payment is due at the time of visit. If you have a PPO dental insurance plan, we can assist with filing claims for reimbursement.

Dental implants and restorative care

Our prosthodontists provide advanced dental implant care using state-of-the-art imaging and precise surgical techniques. A dental implant takes the place of a tooth's natural roots. We place a custom-crafted crown over the implant that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Dental implants offer a comfortable, durable and long-term solution for missing teeth. We also offer nonsurgical restorative treatments, including dental crowns and bridges, to repair or replace damaged, decayed, misshapen or missing teeth.

Expert oral and maxillofacial surgery

Our oral and maxillofacial surgeons provide specialized care for complex conditions of the face, teeth and jaws, including TMJ disorders. We offer consultations in our dental clinic and perform surgery at UCSF Health hospitals. Our integrated approach enables us to provide the safest and highest quality medical and dental care. This is especially important for patients with complex or chronic medical conditions.
