Our son Nicholas had his first dental appointment and it was amazing to see the care and patience the staff showed. They even gave him a toy bus and ball, which he absolutely loved.

Today was my little one's first visit to the dentist, and we couldn't have had a better experience at OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry. Arriving quite early, the reception team kindly recommended a fantastic nearby spot for coffee, turning our early start into a delightful morning. This place is truly a hidden gem! Alex, our dentist, took the time to explain and show my 16-month-old son all the instruments and procedures beforehand. This thoughtful approach made the entire process stress-free and fun for him. Alex and his assistant, a wonderful dental student whose name I unfortunately didn't catch, were brilliant and kind. They even gave my son a balloon, cheering him on for his bravery and good behavior, which made him feel comfortable and made the visit enjoyable. At the end of the appointment, my son received a certificate to join a cavity-free team, which we absolutely loved! Ashley sweetly helped us join the team, explaining everything in detail. Thank you so much for making our day today! Every single detail mattered, and this team executed everything brilliantly, from the front desk to post-appointment care. I highly recommend OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry to everyone!
Dorothy Liu
OPDSF is awesome - great for kids from little ones to teens. We’ve been going since our tweens were toddlers. Special shout out to Dr. Pang, Dr. Chen, Jenny, Alex, Janelle, Jamie and the whole team!
Carleen Durkin
OPDSF was amazing! Their office is bright, inviting and friendly! Their staff is fantastic with children and makes them (and parents) extremely comfortable! I couldn't have asked for a better first dentist appointment experience for my 2 year old daughter!
Mila Averon
Thank you, Dr. Dorothy Pang, and the team for making my daughters’ dental visits so positive! Our family is impressed by the depth of knowledge and experience that you and your team possess, which reflects the best care and attention during each appointment.
Thank you so much for choosing us for your daughter's dental care. We are so appreciative that you took the time to share your experience with us. We look forward to seeing you both again!

We had our fourth cleaning today for my 3 year old. Alex and Dr Peng handled her so well, and my daughter left in good spirits, with a positive experience of dental exams. I also left clearly informed of the things i have to prioritize at this stage of my child’s development. I highly recommend OPDSF.
Mirta Vourthis
Everyone at OPDSF are great! Mei, Janelle & Laura are always so helpful. Dr. Pang is amazing!. We love them and kids look forward going to the dentist.
Natalie Chan
Really great kid friendly approach! Knowledgeable and kind - very patient and accommodating with protesting and crying. Wonderful first dentist visit for my toddler - couldn’t have asked for a better first experience!
Anh Phan
The whole team is amazing to my daughter! Professional, gentle, patient and knows how to make kids comfortable!
Melanie Puno
We had a consultation today for my daughter. She is really scared of the dentist and I wanted to give OPDSF a shot. The front desk staff were friendly. Alex, the dental assistant was very nice and helpful at keeping us calm. The place is super clean and organized which I really appreciate. When it was time to meet with Dr. Pang, she was very friendly and my daughter eased up a bit and sat in the chair (mostly). She was still scared but Dr. Pang made it fun (as possible) and we got through it. Even though it is far from us, we hope to make this our go-to place. We appreciate everyone's patience and friendly demeanor. We look forward to coming back soon. Thank you!
yelena ZHUCHKOVA
Everyone at OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry is very professional and caring. Excellent work!
Rongrong Liu
This was one of my regular visits here. Always felt welcomed and well-cared for. Dr. Lee is highly skilled, efficient, and made the entire process seamless. The front desk Clay and Mayo was very kind and efficient. I also had the pleasure of being assisted by Amy, I must say, her dedication and patience truly stood out. Despite Madanrin not being her native language, she went above and beyond to communicate with me effectively, ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. Her patience in explaining how to brush my teeth properly was incredibly helpful and made me feel genuinely cared for. Her commitment to providing exceptional care, coupled with her kindness and understanding, made my experience truly memorable.
Jenny Woodbury
We love this dedicated pediatric dental office. Everyone is responsive, kind, and professional. Our appt began on-time. Dr Pang and her assistant, Mei, were very sweet to Jane. They gave informative feedback and shared positive reinforcement. Jane certainly loves going to see them. The check-out process with Janelle was seamless. Thank you for everything you do!
Penny Peng
My son was reluctant to have his cavities fixed at other dentals. We tried couple other but not working to him until came to OPD. He was so happy here got all his cavities fixed and still wanted to came back. We had Doctor Chen and she was so patient and nice. Definitely recommend her to kids!
We're so happy to hear your son was comfortable at his visit, we look forward to seeing him at his next visit!

Pauline Tom
Dr Dorothy Pang and Serena are great. However when it comes to customer service on the front desk they are relentless when it comes to refunds. A deposit is placed for holding appointment times. A 48hr cancellation is required or the deposit is taken. I had appointment cancelled at the 49hr mark and I kindly asked for a refund- however the front staff became rude and impersonal. It is frustrating when policies aren’t applied despite being outside the cancellation window.
Hi Pauline, we saw your review on Yelp too. Our office manager, Rosanna, left you a voicemail. Hoping we can connect tomorrow to clear everything up. We deeply care about our patient care and satisfaction. Thank you.

We had a fantasy appointment today. My daughters Hannah and Jolene always have such a positive experience at OPDSF. Rita and Dr. Chen were very gentle and very informative about brushing and with X-rays taken. Janelle and Laura were also very helpful in scheduling her next appointment.
Thank you so much for your review. We are absolutely thrilled that your daughter enjoy their visits to our office. Thank you for choosing us for your dental care, we look forward to seeing you and your family again!

Very friendly staff. Devin was seen by Alex, and Dr. Chen. Both very professional and friendly. Answered all questions and concerns. Peyton was seen by Mei, and also Dr. Chen. Surprisingly both kids are not afraid of the dentist like I was growing up! Speaks loudly of how they are treated at their dentist!
We're so happy to hear your children felt comfortable at their visit! We appreciate you trusting us with their dental care, we look forward to seeing them again!

Absolutely wonderful to work with. They truly do have plenty of ways to entice children to brush their teeth. Even their bathroom is decorated thinking of the little ones to make the experience less scary. Quickly becoming my new pediatric dentist for my girls' needs.

We've put a lot of thought into creating an environment that not only caters to the dental needs of children but also ensures they feel comfortable, understood, and even excited about their visits.

Dr. Pang and the assistant Mei were great with my 18 month old for his first dental visit. They took their time with him when he got fussy and explained what was going on throughout the appointment. We look forward to coming back in 6 months.
We're so happy you had a great vsiist and we hope to see you soon!

Have had two great experiences taking our toddler here. The staff is great with kids and the rooms are set up with toys and tvs on the ceiling to ensure a successful dentist experience. Serena was so great and patient with my daughter!
We strive to create a comfortable atmosphere here at our office, we're so happy to hear that you daughter felt comfortable at her visit.

My daughter loved the dental assistant and had a nice and easy cleaning. It’s so nice leaving the dentist happy!
Veronica Cortez
We've finally found our pediatric dentist!! After so long! OPDSF was great. The front desk staff were friendly and professional. I took my son there for his annual clean and Alex helped with the initial check up and cleaning and then Dr. Pang helped with the rest. My son has a strong gag reflex and they were able to work him through that process. I am bringing my other child in in a few days. Looking forward to returning for all of our cleanings.
Shant Meguerditchian
It was our son’s first visit to the dentist and we had the best experience with OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry! Everyone there was super friendly and knowledgeable and made him feel at ease. A special big thank you to Serena for taking such great care of my son’s teeth and for being so incredibly kind and patient while answering all of his questions! I am thrilled to have found this amazing practice and would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you, Meguerditchian Family
Egen Tsai
Dr. Pang came highly recommended by a friend, and I agree. She is very thorough and care about her patients. The staff is courteous and helpful. The office is very clean and comfortable. I highly recommend OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry.
Mabel Yang
My daughter had an amazing first dental visit. All the staff were kind and patient. Mei, the hygienist, did a very thorough job and Dr. Mo explained all her findings and treatment plan very well. My daughter even got some prizes and stickers which she was thrilled about. I highly recommend ODPSF!
andje medina
Five star experience across the board. Clean, friendly, organized, knowledgeable, and inviting environment for kids. We are thrilled we found this office for our son's dental needs.
Jenn L
Staff is amazing! We took our 2 year old son for the very first time and the dentist was super knowledgeable, came out to talk to me and offered her opinion and next steps. She also tried to know me on a personal level as this was our first time here. We will definitely be going back for our next visits.
Irina Kogan
Thank you so much for your great service and making our smiles more beautiful and happy!
Nathan Vu
I’ve been a patient at OPDSF for over 10 years and I would highly recommend! Staff members Alex and Annie were outstanding and super helpful with the health of my teeth!
Peter Luong
Shout out to Annie and Lauren for greeting right when Leah and i walked in and leaving the office. Super nice staff from the start, always a smile from everyone there. Shout out to Alex for being so nice and gentle to my daughter Leah, so thoughtful and throughly explained what he will do before he starts. Lastly, Dr. Amy Chen for taking care both my kids dental needs. Keep up the great work, the environment there is kids friendly, would recommend to friends and families.
Sandy M
I love Dr. Pang and her staff. The entire office is professional, warm and kind. They honestly care about their patients and parents . The environment of the office is relaxing and playful. They have TVs for the kids to watch during their exams. The staff and Dr Pang do a great job of keeping the little ones calm. My son broke his tooth when he was in elementary school. Dr Pang worked her magic by making a partial "fake" tooth. She is so skilled as a dentist . You can't tell it's fake. He hasn't had any issues 6 years later. Her work was and is phenomenal . She is the best pediatric dentist ever. The office sends Bday wishes every year. They check in via email with important happenings. They truly care about your children.
Amanda Reyes
It was my sons first visit for a follow up appointment after his dental procedure so he was on edge when he arrived to his appointment, not willing to sit in the chair. Mei was very patient and gentle with my son who was giving us both a hard time. She gave him a token earlier for a prize. Annie and Lauren are both helpful at the front desk when it comes to my questions for billing and insurance. Dr. Chen ended up being my sons dental surgeon for his procedure and her warm demeanor, answer to all my questions through out the entire process (pre op, day of op and post of) and follow up care made this stressful parent moment that much better. Thank you OPDSF staff!
Heather Hsia
It's a nice office with nice dentist But be prepared to pay a lot. After insurance still $350 per child for simple routine cleaning & check up. $350 is a lot for a simple child cleaning right. Quick, easy polish, check and fluoride runs $700 for 2 kids. Painful Cavity fillings run very high price. After $350 for a filling you may get an additional $100 bill in mail insurance didn't cover. Only decent dental clinic I know of in the city. Prefer paying for preventative care and maintenance at these prices than going to a dirty office. I am paranoid with infection control and cross contamination exposure in dental care. It's still painful to pay these prices
Sarah Ngo
Super friendly and professional staff, this is the ideal place to bring my 1 y.o. for his dental care, care team is very gentle and patient
Lisa Roessel
I cannot recommend this office enough. They are so great with kids, the staff is friendly and the whole team does everything possible to make kids comfortable in what could otherwise be an intimidating environment. My kids LOVE coming to the dentist!
Ala AbuRaya
It was a great experience, our son felt excellent during the treatment. very welcoming and Super professional staff.
Ashley Uyeda Smith
Thorough, efficient and knowledgeable. The staff is incredibly patient and kind. Lauren and Annie were so flexible and helpful. Alex did a wonderful job as well. Thank you OPSF!
Maggi Perkes
Going to OPDSF and Dr. Mo are by far the best decision I've made thus far for my kiddo. Parenting is hard AF and we have so many decisions to make. I agonized over where to have my toddler go for her first dental appointment. Since COVID has been a topic in our house, my child is super anxious with doctors and dentists and anything related to healthcare. She certainly was anxious about her past 2 dental visits, but OPDSF staff and doctors provide such a wonderful experience for both me and my child. I HIGHLY recommend!
Loretta Luu
Dr. Mo and her team (Jenny, Annie and Lauren) are awesome. They are super patience, making sure my little one is comfortable and feel at ease during the visit. They even comforted me when my child is crying for the first time. They took their time to wait for her to be ready and after 2 visits she so comfortable she didn't cried on her last (3rd) visit.
gregory bobis
OPDSF, is a great place for kids. The staff was so friendly, especially Serena, Lauren and Annie. They were able to keep our little one engaged and super calm as they cleaned her teeth. She walked out with a big smile, and talked about her visit to the Dentist all day! Definitely a positive experience for all of us!!☺️
I G
I took my child to OPDSF and had a great experience. They staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The set up is great for children. Mei was the assistant that helped my child and she is wonderful at her job. They make it a fun experience for the kids with a prize at the end of the visit and if your child has no cavities, they are entered into a monthly drawing where they can win a game or toy. Dr. Chen was extremely kind and you can tell she really enjoys what she does. They all made my child and me feel comfortable and welcomed. If you are looking for a pediatric dentist, this is the place to come to. My child is already asking when is her next visit.
Lauren Lopez
Serena is so patient and gentle. Dr. Pang is the best of the best hands down !!! And Annie helped me so much and was so kind through the whole process. Awesome customer service, Awesome team work !!
Lynneth Uy
This place was great! Clean, organized, and the staff was super friendly. Thank you Annie & Melissa for making everything front desk related easy for momma and big shout out to Rita for being patient with my kiddo. Dr Pang and the rest of the staff made my little guy's first dental appointment a breeze. He has a wonderful experience and for me that warrants 10/10.
Marcella Dario
I could not have asked for a better experience for my son's first dentist appointment! Everyone in the front office (shout out Annie and Lauren) were nice and patient while checking us in and out. Mei, the dental assistant, explained everything that was going on during the visit and Dr. Chen was icing on the cake with her kind demeanor and practice. They worked so well with my son, who started crying during the cleaning, and somehow managed to do an assessment, cleaning and flossing ? They even offered him a stuffed animal to hold and there's a tv to distract. Excellent experience and will definitely return in six months.
Wendy Liu
I must admit that I do feel awkward being the sole negative review here but let me just say that I am not a fan of their billing practices. They really need to work on being more upfront and fair with how they deal with your insurance. They are very shady. I will not be coming back. Update: in addition to their shady business practices they are often unavailable for entire days when I attempt to call them on the phone. I mean how can a dental office be closed on weekdays? What happens if our kids have a dental emergency?
Dear Ms. Liu, Our primary goal is to treat all our patients with compassion and integrity. We are transparent about how we handle billing. To provide exceptional care and service, and as a courtesy to our patients, our front team works hard to gather insurance information to help maximize our patient's dental benefits and provide co-payment estimates before their appointments. If you didn’t think you had received the information, we could verify which parent had signed off on the treatment. We appreciate you leaving a review, as it always helps us continue to improve our patient's experiences. Sincerely, Dr. Pang, Dr. Chen, Dr. Mo and the entire OPDSF team

Our daughter's first dentist visit, she's two. The dentist and staff made her visit a very pleasant one. Thank you OPDSF Pediatric Dentistry!
Korin Andreatta
My son had a dental emergency and I can't praise and thank this dentist office enough. The team at OPDSF took care of my son (and our family) from the moment I frantically called the front office and Tina calmed me down (with a screaming child in the background) until Dr. Chen reattached his tooth. Additional shout outs to the amazing assistant Shimei for taking such good care of my son throughout the procedure & Lauren at the front desk for taking me through the billing and treatment plan. Dr. Chen is our new hero and we recommend her and her staff to anyone looking for pediatric dental care, especially those that may have a child that is anxious about the dentist.
Tatem Davis
Our first impression was "WOW!" They used advanced technology to view my child's teeth and gums. They had a flat screen TV in the ceiling which helped my baby relax as her exam took place. The office was super sanitary and ALL of their staff were nice. My daughter even got a prize at the end of her visit! Extra Cool!
Tatem Davis
My child and I experienced respect courtesy and comfort throughout our visit. We also loved the atmosphere which oozed Good Vibes!!
Budi Sutardja
Safe and clean pediatric dental office with courteous and helpful front desk (Lauren & Annie). Dental assistants Shimei & Mei kept my kids at ease with the most recent visit. My kids have had Dr. Amy Chen attending to their oral hygiene since their first dental visit. She was always friendly and caring, and answered all our questions and concerns.
Sabina Ahmed
The team is always top notch at OPDSF. Every doctor is super nice and efficient. The staff are very pleasant and on top of things. We've been going there despite the distance from our place and them not taking our insurance anymore (they take upfront pay then submit to insurance on your behalf).
Jennifer Quijano
OPDSF was able to schedule my son for a same day appointment. Dr. Chen and Serena provided excellent service and Lauren was kind and helpful. My kids have been going to this office for 10 years and service has always been so wonderful!
Kazuki Nakayashiki
This is a really nice pediatric dental office! My daughter needed to take the first checkup for her teeth and we chose this place through my friend's recommendation. All the staff and doctors are so friendly and nice! I highly recommend this place!
purplegreen73007
I brought my 7 year in for a quick checkup regarding an adult tooth growing behind his baby tooth. The solution was diagnosed right away and they were able to fix the problem right away without needing to come back for a second appointment. Everyone who helped us was extremely helpful and friendly and made sure Neo was comfortable and in good spirits.
Maja Šokčević
Both my daughters have been patients here and I always recommend it to anyone seeking a pediatric dentist. Staff is very friendly, doctors are great and make the whole process much easier for kids. The other day I brought my 3 month old daughter in to check for ties, and everyone was so helpful and attentive, including front desk members Lauren and Annie, as well as assistant Shimei. Special thank you to Dr. Pang for answering all my questions and being very attentive and patient. Great practice!
Sterling Wu
Both of my girls have gone to OPD and both times were wonderful experiences. Dr Chen and Dr Mo helped us in a patient and respectful manner. The dental assistants, were fantastic and even though one of my daughters is reluctant to see the dentist, she was quite happy and relaxed. Overall, it was a positive experience for my children and me. Recommended
Angel Ace
From the start when my daughter Luna-Nuri was greeted by Lauren and Annie who are so warm and welcoming ,to Mei who was not only thorough in cleaning her teeth but very kind and patient towards her. Ofcourse Dr. Mo is my daughters favorite Doctor by far she always feels very comfortable and leaves happy which is very important to me as a mother , to reassure of her comfort and since the customer service is consistently exceptional she’s always so excited to go to the dentist and loves brushing her teeth even at home which makes my job as mom easier at night . 10/10 recommend.
Chelsea Bowman
We have been going to OPDSF since my so grew teeth, after a break due to COVID, it was so wonderful to be back! The team are always friendly, helpful, and considerate. Annie and Lauren at the front desk throughly explain what will be done and Joan is always warmly there to help. I've been impressed with each Dr. we have seen and the fun environment, including TVs on the ceiling are an added bonus! I highly recommend OPDSF for your child's dental needs, it is an important element to their overall health and I'm thankful we found this team!
Stephany Gabriner
Bode and Sienna love coming here for their dental treatments! Serena, Annie and Jamie are all so welcoming and amazing with kids!
Angie Shin
Everyone who works in this dentist office is incredibly friendly and professional. My daughter, who was a little nervous, felt at ease once she laid back in the chair and saw a screen in the ceiling playing her favorite Netflix show. Joan, the dental assistant, walked Lucy through every step and gave her a lot of positive reinforcement for following instructions. I think they do a terrific job of explaining all of the potential costs and dental needs. At the end of her dental exam, Lucy was even offered a choice of a take-home toy. Thank you OPDSF!
Julia Keiko Pinces-French
This place is so kid & baby friendly! I brought my girl as soon as she turned 1 year old. They were able to teach me how to brush her teeth properly, and how to hold her lovingly but strongly as she squirmed a bit. I felt so much more confident brushing her teeth. The dentist was so sweet with her too. Really glad I found this place!
Jason Luong
My son had his teeth cleaned by Alex. He was professional and knew how to calm down my kid by pretending to count his teeth while scraping the stain. I had expected him to cry at any moment, but he never did. My kid, I mean, not Alex.
Orianne Dutka
I brought my toddler daughter here for her second dental cleaning and couldn't have asked for her to have had a better introduction to dentistry! The staff was so welcoming and front desk members Melissa and Lauren spoke to her in a warm and friendly way that made her feel comfortable in this new environment. Serena, the RDA who performed our cleaning, was outstanding. She answered every question expertly and made several excellent suggestions. Dr. Chen was so kind and engaging and made my daughter feel right at home. Both Dr. Chen and Serena made my daughter feel safe enough that she opened her mouth and cooperated the entire appointment. While we were leaving, my daughter blew kisses at her care providers and during the day, she proudly announced multiple times "clean teeth!" Thank you for a great experience!
Ann Paderanga
Dr. Pang always greets us with enthusiasm and makes sure to explain exactly whats going on with my daughter. I now know about permanent molars! Lol Joan assisted with my daughter Jaenna and was very nice and careful with her. Annie and Jamie were awesome and so friendly in assisting on insurance and appointments with me. I love the staff of OPDSF, been going here for almost 10 years.
Audrey F
UPDATE: My son went in for his check-up. The office is still clean and spacious. Check-in, billing, and dental assistant was very kind and patient with a sobbing 2 yo. Dr. Mo was unavailable so Dr. Pang took care of Bryce. Dr. Pang is kind and patient as well, clearly explaining steps for care. I'm very happy with the care provided at OPDSF. ------------------ We were luckily referred to Dr. Mo by a friend. The office was clean and spacious with hand sanitizer at the check-in. Annie & Jamie were working the check-in/check-out process, both friendly and quick. I was led into the room where I heard the familiar sounds of Bryce's fav TV show. My son cried but Serena & Dr. Mo were very patient and clearly explained things before and as they were doing them. Overall a positive experience for Bryce and this neurotic mom.
Sarah Imershein
Smart and professional, tightly run dental ship. Kind and not condescending. Highly recommended.
Rachel Arana
Our daughter had her first pandemic and life dental visit and we followed the glowing reviews and took her to see Dr Pang and staff. They took care of her and were so kind and gentle. Thank you so much!
Leah Kennedy
So glad we found OPDSF. Dr. Mo and dental assistant Joan feel like a part of our team. They are so patient and gentle with our 4yo who is very afraid of the dentist. We have been able to take things at his pace, with lots of visits to socialize and gradually get more comfortable. I am really impressed with their ability to serve different types of kids and meet us where we are at.
Kaitlin Solimine
Our daughter has had dental issues since her teeth came in so she developed severe dental anxiety - but Dr Mo and staff all helped her feel comfortable throughout her first procedure and subsequent checkups. Our younger son enjoyed his visit too - the process was seamless and kids were happy!
Jennifer George
Dentists and hygienists there are amazing with kids. We highly recommend!
Kristen Ribero
I don't think I've ever left a Google review, but my two year old did so well with her first experience here that I had to share. The whole staff was so welcoming, and took such good care of us. There were TVs in the ceiling and lots of presents. Highly recommend!
abby
I highly recommend this dentist because I have been going to this dentist since I was a toddler. Throughout those years of going there I’ve had a really amazing time there! Everyone was super friendly , sweet and always had such great energy! Every time I go to the dentist I always feel welcomed and safe in that environment! I usually don’t like the dentist but every time my mom tells me I have an appointment with the dentist I always look forward to going there!!
Sharon Cheng
This was another successful visit. It was prompt and my daughter didn’t even have a worry. A great way to wrap up the year. Thank you OPDSF, especially Jenny, Annie and Lauren!
Ana Harris-Padley
Updating as of August 2023: We are still taking my daughter here. The dentists are all really great with her and the front office staff are very helpful, too. She loves going (including of course the goodby bags) but they do a great job of listening and supporting her, even when she's scared or nervous. Continue to highly recommend this practice for pediatric dentistry. (Original review): My husband took our daughter for her first ever dental appointment with OPDSF. She just turned a year old. All of the staff were super friendly and welcoming - special thanks to Serena, Annie and Peter who were there on the day. She saw Dr. Mo who did a great job of trying to reassure her when she got a bit nervous. Definitely a great place for children's dentistry where they know how to deal and can support kids in what can otherwise be a scary situation. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for pediatric dental care!
Thank you so much for your updated review! It's heartwarming to know that your trust in our practice has continued over the years. We truly appreciate you highlighting our team's dedication to ensuring every visit is a pleasant and supportive one, especially when the little ones are feeling anxious. Serena, Annie, Peter, and Dr. Mo will surely be thrilled to hear your kind words. It's always our mission to provide an environment where both children and parents feel at ease. Knowing that your daughter looks forward to her visits and those goodbye bags makes us even more committed to delivering exceptional care. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your daughter's dental journey, and we promise to continue to live up to your expectations. See you at the next appointment! ?

My 4 year old twins love Dr Pang and her team! This practice is such a happy place and they understand that with young ones, time is important. We even saw a “princess fairy” in the office! Thank you Dr Pang!
Cabrera Family
My sons have been patients in this practice since they were little. We moved to the Peninsula but my teen boys still choose to come here to see Dr. Chen! Like others have said, she really is wonderful and sweet. But most importantly, she has the manual dexterity skills and works with a soft touch! (As parents working in the OR, we noticed?). Her assistants, like Mei, do a great job with the cleanings. Ryan & Annie from the front desk are efficient and thorough. I like that they always give you a statement of services at checkout. Thanks OPDSF!
ZaileySf
I have been taking my kids here since they first started getting teeth. The kids have always had a great experience. From the receptionist to the dentist they are all so kind and patient. Our recent visit just reminds me how much we love this place. Dakota my 5 year old was a bit nervous because she hasnt been in a little while. Serena was so great she laughed joked talked to dakota about her favorite cartoons all while keeping her calm and cleaning her teeth. She also in a fun positive way encouraged her to clean her teeth and talked to her about how to keep her teeth nice and healthy. The Dentist came checked the kiddos teeth gave her goodies and talked to Dakota and she even walked her out which was so cute. One of Dakotas favorite parts was the ladies at the front Annie and Anna gave her a ticket tobput in a box for the cavity free club. Seriously she wod not stop talking about that lol. She ran into the house to tell her dad she made it to the club lol. All and all amazing visit. Ladies you all are rock stars thank you for taking care of my babies!!!
Abob
I am very satisfy with today visit, everyone in here are very friendly and courteous. Thanks

They’re so nice to me and they get their job done well! I’m happy that my parents chose this dentist for me.
Betty Lam
I really like this office. The staff are just so on top of everything: from scheduling the appointment, to tell me the price of the procedures/office visit, to checking us in and attendance notes for school. Their Covid protocol practice makes me feel safe and I appreciate their friendly staff.
Soyeba
Love this practice. The doctors and staff are professional, competent and friendly. They take good care of our children's dental health. Nice modern facility, too!

Simply the best Pediatric Dentist. I cannot rate the care, compassion and professionalism of this practice enough. I highly recommend.

Dr Amy Chen is my 11 years old girl’s dentist since toddler. She is a wonderful and sweet dentist always providing outstanding service. Super kid friendly! A few months ago, my girl had an accident in school and broke some incisors badly. Dr Amy immediately arranged us an emergency appointment and spent the whole afternoon helping my girl to fix her teeth and remove all fragments inside her gum and mouth. My girl recovered really quick and well. And she also has good teammates working in the office. On Monday, we went to the office for regular cleaning. Her assistant Mei was very patient and spent an hour to clean up my girl’s yellow teeth. They are all white now ?! Moreover, she showed my kid how to brush and floss the teeth correctly. Phenomenal Team!

Great service, good environment for kids. The kids loved Joan and Linda, and Lauren and Tina were very helpful!
Joanna Szeto
The service was great. My daughter had a toothache and they explained in detail what was wrong and how to help her. I feel so relieved that it was just a normal process of getting a new tooth. They were also very helpful in scheduling my son's orthodontist appointment.

OPDSF has a wonderful staff and welcoming office. Everything is kid-friendly! We saw Dr. Helen Mo and she was great with my daughter. I highly recommend this dental office.

We love OPDSF! My daughter had some serious dental issues, so she has severe anxiety going to the dentist. She had a number of visits that required intense and deep dental work (which, because of the nature of having to spend so much time at the dentist dealing with pain and issues, evidently leads the patient to fear going to the dentist more and more), but OPDSF was able to resolve it and my child's teeth are perfect now! At her last check-up, there were no issues/cavities at all! Both my daughter and I were so happy about this, that due to this positive interaction, I know her anxiety will decrease each time she goes to the dentist now! The knowledge, expertise, and professionalism of these dentists are OUT OF THIS WORLD. They are seriously probably the best dentists in the city, if not the whole Bay Area! Additionally, the dentists (Dr. Pang, Dr. Mo) and dental assistants (Mei and Rita) who work here are incredibly patient with my child. I feel terrible about how long it took them to clean her teeth due to her anxiety, but they've never conveyed impatience or annoyance with us. Their admin staff are really great as well. They are responsive, do a great job of providing details for upcoming appointments, and abide by COVID protocols (while still remaining flexible depending on the situation). Though I moved out of the city and are even out of network with my dental insurance now, we still come here because of the high quality of service, care, and comfort my daughter experiences at OPDSF!

The moment we learned that our almost 4-year old son’s tooth had to be extracted, we were sad, nervous, and very hesitant. Upon visiting OPDSF, Dr. Chen and her assistant Rita walked us very clearly what needs to be done, why, and how they are going to perform the extraction. It was so convincing and we became very comfortable, especially how they communicated with our little one that we decided to go ahead with the extraction immediately! Less than half an hour later, the extraction was completed and we were so happy that our little one remained brave and everything went very smoothly. We were given clear guidance for post-extraction care and Dr. Chen followed up with a phone call the next day. We would like to say thanks to the whole team including Annie and Martha at the front desk for their assistance. Thank you!

We've been using their service for years now. My children love seeing their dentists. During our last visit the support team members Rita, Annie and Anna were very helpful too.

Elena Santos
Thank you OPDSF for a wonderful first experience. All staff were so patient with my 3 year old and 1 year old. They answered all our questions and process went smoothly.
Going to the dentist can be scary for kids at that age so we are so happy to hear that your child felt safe and comfortable!

Dr. Mo went above and beyond to give my daughter the best care. Between the phone calls before to explain the treatment plan, checking in during the visit, and following up after ti make sure all was well…she treated us like family. Dr. Mo is highly skilled while also maintaining excellent customer care. Very grateful for her and the OPDSF team.
sandra esain
Rita is amazing with my daughter. So patient and creative in helping her to calm down. The only person that has even been able to professionally clean my 5yr olds teeth without a major tantrum. They give goodies for the kids which makes mine so happy. And they have awesome incentive raffles for no cavities. What child doesn’t like a prize. Never had an issue booking an app, even last minute.
Danielle Schlosser
My daughter Avery in joys going to the dentist .Joan and Annie were really gentle but still got the job done
Kirby Morrison
Highly recommend! We took our 19 month daughter to see Dr. Pang for her first dentist appointment today. Our daughter DOES NOT like the doctor's office at all and was very nervous about going to the dentist for the first time. It is very clear that everyone at OPDSF knows how to work with young children and make them feel comfortable. Dr. Pang, Serena, Joan, Annie, and Martha were all excellent and our daughter did really well! We highly recommend.
Yuki Ishikawa Wong
My daughter had multiple cavities which required sedation. Everyone at the OPDSF was very caring. Dr. Mo even reached out that night of the treatment to see how she was doing.
Loyda Narro
The team at OPDSF is amazing! All 3 boys were seeing by Dr Mo, Serena, Joan, and Annie. From start to end, nothing but a professional, kind and welcoming environment. Thank you!
Emily Kong
Another visit in the books! My daughter used to cry about going to the dentist but now she can’t wait to go! She loves the staff and Dental hygienist Mei Chen was awesome again. Talking yo Charlotte in Cantonese. Dr Amy Chen took the time to explain to me which teeth we were watching for cavities. Front desk members Annie and Lauren were very helpful and courteous as well!
Sandra Herrera
I have been taking my son to OPDSF for about 2 years already and I can’t say enough about this place. We recently went I for some fillings and my personal experience with fillings (somewhere else) was very painful so I was concerned about my son having to go through the same. I shared this with Dr. Mo and we exchanged some e-mails with her explaining me the process. During the procedure I was updated and after the procedure she checked in by phone. I’m very pleased with the attention given to my concerns. I highly recommend OPDSF.
Natasha Massarweh
Everyone is always pleasant and kind, thank you for all your services!
Ched Valete
We had an amazing experience with Alex. He was caring and went extra mile to make my son comfortable. Thank you also to Janelle and the amazing staff!
Thank you for trusting us. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Our daughter, Olivia loves going to the dentist. Probably because she's always had a good experience every time she visits OPDSF. They are very kid friendly and their facilities are really catered to the young ones. Her hygienist Mei was very professional, friendly, & kind. I felt at home when I first visited their dentist office. It was very welcoming and the staff were all helpful.
Lauren Pieretti
We love OPDSF! I’ve seen Dr. Lee for my own Invisalign and love my results! I bring my kids to see Dr. Pang and feel so comfortable and confident in her care. We had the chance to meet Dr. Mo on our last visit and I was blown away by her calm demeanor. My usually very anxious three year old felt very at ease and was finally able to actually open her mouth wide enough for an exam.
Kristyn Kendall
We just came back from our first dentist appointment ever and I could not be happier with our experience from beginning to end. I have my own dental anxiety and fears to work through and I’m trying not to pass them on to my children so this appointment was more nerve wracking for me than for Ronan. The staff was incredibly kind to both of us. They went over estimated charges ahead of time which I appreciated since it was our first time using this insurance for him and I wasn’t sure how that would all work out. There was another child there who was leaving who seemed to be really happy with the experience which is always nice to see. Once in the exam room they asked if we were allowing screen time before turning on the TV on the ceiling as a distraction. They also had bubbles to use as distraction between brushings and a board book for us to take home. Throughout her time with us, the assistant asked if I had questions which was nice since small things kept popping up. Ronan actually allowed her to brush his teeth and do the cleaning with only a bit of crying which I was shocked by. When Dr. Mo came in we talked through my concerns and she gave me some great tips in addition to doing a fluoride treatment. While he was laying down for the treatment and crying she asked me if I was alright which was a really kind touch. On our way out all of the staff congratulated Ronan on being such a brave patient. He was all smiles by the time we were leaving! 10/10 I would highly recommend this office and will be back in 6 months!

Amazing doctors and staff! They are great at handling little kids and my 3 year old daughter loves her dentist visit! :)

Great pediatric dentistry. Had our 1yr old daughter’s first appointment there, all the staff we dealt with (Lauren and Martha) were kind and thorough, Joan did a great job cleaning her teeth as did Dr. Fang. They had good toys and videos/music to distract her and got the job done quickly. Highly recommend!
Victoria Ortiz
Thank you for taking such a good care of my son. I'm fortunate to have you as his dentist. We've been coming to you for over 10 years. We reside in Oakley. The drive is so worth it! My son needs to feel comfortable and trust the people around him as he is an autistic young boy and it can be changllenged. We are so blessed with your staff's kindness, patience, and professionalism! Words cannot express how much it means to us. Thank you Stella, Annie, Martha, Dr. Pang and to all your staff. Today we had another successful visit.
Sienna Choi
Today was our first visit and we had a wonderful experience. We received warm welcoming. The facility is very kids friendly that made my kids feel relaxing. Their staff are very patient explaining to my kids how to clean every angle of their teeth and how to use floss. Dr. Pang and Dr. Chen are very professional. They give good advise and suggestion on teeth problems. They deserve more than 5 stars.
marinella di matteo
Great Pediatric Dentist practice in SF! My daughter loves it! The whole experience is design to make kids feel at ease and even entertain during their visit. They’re very professional and friendly. Highly recommended!!!!
Angela Kuo
OPDSF is a great pediatric dental practice! We saw Dr. Mo today and she was thorough, personable, addressed my questions and concerns and took the time to explain her recommendations. We've also seen Dr. Pang in the past who is wonderful. The dental assistants are great with putting the kids at ease and Annie is always incredibly helpful with scheduling and navigating insurance questions.
Frances Zhang
My daughter, Kayla Z. had another amazing experience at OPDSF! I want to thank and give a shout out to Dr. Chen and her team, Serena, Camille, Annie, and Martha for always being courteous, caring, and friendly!
Jenny Che
Great Place for Kids. Kaitlyn H., Khloe H., and Kameron H. always look forward to her dental check up. All staff are very helpful and friendly, special shout to Peter, Jamie, May, Linda and Selena.
Minh-Chau Le
Our kids love going to the dentist, they even look forward to it, and I don’t think most people can say that. The entire team seems to understand kids will have healthier teeth if they have a good experience at the dentist. They are kind and patient with each kid. Plus the office is basically a day spa for kids - there are movies, shows, prizes, etc. Serena was great with our three year old, and Lauren and Martha took good care of us out front. They are no longer in network with Delta Dental, which stinks. For now, we’re still ok paying more to keep going there, but we’re going to keep an eye on the cost.
Ju Tse
It was our first time to OPD and it went well from the very beginning to the end of the visit. A big shout out to Joan! Thanks to her for engaging my 2 yr old and 4 yr old during the whole visit while patiently explained to me how to brush the kids teeth probably.
Sufena Hussein

K Lam
Thanks Dr. Pang that explained so detail with X-ray screening for my daughter’s teeth. The assistant, Shimei was so patience to clean her teeth. Even Annie explained thoroughly all the possible extra costs out of pocket. We love this place!!!
Kevin Lee
Lauren and Martha were understanding when they checked us in and our assistants ( Serena and Stella) were very patient and kind. Lastly, we met Dr. Chen today for our checkup and she was very friendly. Great experience! - Kevin and Katelyn
David Noii
This is the only dentist our children enjoy visiting , along with ourselves… The level of care, attention, and expertise that is given to the kids and their craft are evident. They care about making an experience at the dentist office one to look forward to for the kids, no matter how unpleasant the procedure! We’ve been through several different dentists before choosing OPDSF , along with going to UCSF dental school… Only to see Dr Pang’s acclaimed resume featured at UCSF school of dentistry , so we figured let’s go straight to her practice, and it is the best decision we could have made!
William Bray
I'm 100% positive that Dr. Mo, Joan and Camille made the visit for our kiddo the absolute best it could have been. They are all so friendly, accommodating and professional in the way they handle children visits it just blew me away.
Michael Kaliko
We love this dental office and kids are always excited to go there. Front desk members are all very welcoming and attentive, especially Camille who was helping us today with a smile and answered all of our questions. Dr. Mo and assistant Stella were very nice. Dr. Mo asked him if he was doing ok throughout the whole process and informed me on what was happening. She made the process a lot easier and smoother by informing us on everything that is happening step by step. Thank you all for your wonderful work and patience!
Kelly Chen
Child friendly office! I expected my one year old to cry at her first visit, of course she did, but the staff were all professional making for an easy visit. TV on the ceiling to distract the kiddo and a toy at the end of the visit. They also have good COVID safety practice, sanitizer and temps checked at the door.
Christopher Baltodano
What can I say this dentist has my back ever since I was young now in my teen years I love it so much my dentists are friendly, fun to talk to etc, hope this dentistry stays strong :)
Gary Chew
My daughter felt very comfortable with her dentist. The staff is great with my kids. I feel confident dentist is providing excellent dental care and accurate information.
Scott Li
We've been coming to OPDSF for the last several years and have been really happy with all of the staff and dentists there. Dr. Mo was the dentist with our 9 year old son recently and took great care of him. Camille helped answer the dozens of questions I had regarding some schedule changes and upcoming updates to our dental policy. Overall, OPDSF is professional and welcoming ensuring that all of our kids felt comfortable and that they were going to receive quality care.
Kaitlin Thein
We have been coming to OPDSF for eight years, and even now that we’ve moved out of San Francisco, it is well worth the hour drive. The staff and doctors are all so professional and my two boys have received fantastic care time and time again. Thank you!
Mia Maddalena

OPD is a wonderful practice. The staff from the front office to the dental team are all very kind, patient and super kid friendly. The office decor is bright and well decorated which makes the place very welcoming for kids. Not like the scary-feeling dental office I went to as a kid. Our kids get great care here too. We love Dr. Mo who always takes extra time with us and makes our kids feel like special little patients.
Blue Kennedy
Everyone here was really sweet, especially Lauren she made us feel comfortable and welcomed :) We also had Joan and Ryan and they were great at not taking too long so that I wasn’t late, but they also did a thorough job of cleaning my teeth! -Serena
Michelle Afzali
Very clean office. Professional and friendly staff. Nice television screens on the ceiling to keep kids occupied and distracted during cleanings and procedures. My 5-year old and 3-year old love going to the dentist because they’ve had nothing but great experiences here. Ryan greeted us at the door today and made sure to answer my questions regarding my daughter’s visit. Joan who cleaned my daughter’s teeth today is very gentle and excellent with children! My kids always leave this office with a big (clean) smile on their faces!
Ryan Tang
Very good. I got to watch pokemon. People who helped me were Dr. Chen, Annie, Ryan, and Camille.

charmaine lee
Back this time with my 13 month old's first visit. Kind, patient, efficient staff to a squirmy upset toddler. I appreciate how gentle Mei's hands are all while efficiently cleaning and assessing my impatient little girl's teeth. Mei made sure my daughter was comfortable first before doing any work with her. They staff also has a good gauge for when to pull back and not upset the little ones too much. Annie at the front desk was kind and helpful in getting us in and out. Location is clean and friendly as always. We appreciate the staff so much here.
Tony Roldan
I’ve been taking both my kids for more than 10 years. They have one team that takes care of what you value most your kids…. Shime, Mei, Dr. Mo, Ryan and Tina are the Best?
Super great at routine visits and responding to dental emergencies! The whole staff is excellent. We are lucky to have them in our neighborhood.
