About Us

The Faculty Dental Service Group is a unique private dental practice in San Francisco. Our dentists are distinguished faculty members of the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry — from professors who research, develop and teach state-of-the-art principles to nationally recognized authorities who lecture at dental conferences and seminars. The practice offers general dental care as well as a wide range of specialties to adult patients.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Please be sure to bring the completed new patient packet to your first visit, along with any recent X-rays. This appointment typically involves filling out paperwork and an oral health exam by one of our dentists. X-rays may also be taken if needed.

How to Become a Patient

All patients are seen by appointment only. To make an appointment, please call 415.929.6524, and we will send you a new patient packet. We also accept referrals.

Fees and Payment Plans

Fees vary according to procedure as well as doctor. Each dentist has his/her own fee schedule. Payment is requested at the time services with cash, check or credit card. Private insurance is also accepted, including Delta Dental. Contract arrangements can be made following extensive treatment. The Faculty Dental Service Group does not accept Denti-Cal.
