Superb Dental Practice

by RangersIn09 at Citysearch

Hard to believe one can actually look forward to visiting the dentist, but in this instance it's true....

In the time I've been his patient, I have always been treated with the utmost respect by everyone in CitiDent, but the tone is obviously set by Dr. Amini himself. His first concern has always been my care & comfort, and not just the obvious issue of pain management. Like most of us who need more than routine dental care, finances are the next issue, and he and his staff are right there to work with me and my insurance company to overcome any obstacles to receiving necessary care in a timely fashion. Even when things don't go quite perfectly - for instance, the occassional appointment scheduling mix-up (for which I usually bear some responsibility.....) - CitiDent has been more than accommodating in correcting problems.

The results of his care and concern are obvious in my smile, but not just the teeth themselves. It's the way I feel knowing that a truly professional practice supports my dental health. I highly recommend CitiDent and Dr. Amini to anyone needing dental care - and, in my opinion, it's worth the trip into San Francisco for the best care around.

• Pros: Extremely comfortable environment
• Cons: They don't serve beer......

Not for those who appreciate customer service

by sfliving123 at Citysearch

After making an appointment online 4 weeks prior, I was notified at 4:50PM the night before by email that my appointment was cancelled, without explanation, and that the next available appointment was 5 weeks away. This was after my wife and I had been receiving dental care here for the last few years! The dental care is good, but I prefer to go to a dentist who cares about his/her patients more and doesn't run a practice like a money-making machine.

The ONLY Place to Get Teeth in San Francisco

by kauterio at Citysearch

I had my permanent teeth by the time I was five, and within a year I fell face-first over my bike and broke them both in half. Ever since that day, I've had to return to the dentist repeatedly to replace these teeth. After a recommendation from a co-worker, I went to Ben Amini at Citident to have these crowns replaced. My teeth has never looked BETTER!!! These teeth are so comfortable and match the rest of my teeth perfectly! On top of that the office is great, everyone is in a great mood; ALL the time. My favorite part of visiting Citident is listening to "Liquid Metal" on XM radio while getting my teeth fixed. If you live in San Francisco, and have teeth, there is no reason NOT to go to Citident.

• Pros: EVERYTHING!!! Great staff, close to BART and MUNI, skillful expertise... best.. dentist...ever
• Cons: They don't do taxes?

Way beyond my expectaions

by billsca at Citysearch

Dr. Amini has been my dentist for the past 2 years.

I have had extensive work carried out. I have been a bit of challenge but Dr. Amini has been so thorough and his work absolutely first rate. My teeth look better than I ever could have dreamt of. I can't thank Dr. Amini enough - [when I first saw my new teeth it was like a scene from the Swan!].

The entire experience at Citident is fantastic - it feels like a really tight knit team all with a consistently friendly manner - from the warm welcome from the receptionists, through to the modern, clean treatment areas and not forgetting helpful Naz in billing.

I recommend Citident to all my friends and my mother is coming over from England in the New Year to take advantage of the wonderful treatment [and the weak dollar!].

EXCELLENT DENTAL PRACTICE, PROFESSIONAL, WITH INCREDIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!

by michaelsnider01 at Citysearch

I have been seeing Dr. Amini for a little over 3 years. I always have a positive experience with him and his office staff. Recently, I had a 10 year old crown replaced. I WAS AMAZED AT THE DIFFERENCE IN QUALITY between the two crowns. The first one was to big and didn't match the other front tooth. It stood out and was quite noticeable. Dr. Amini, not only matched the size perfectly, he sent me to the lab so that they could customize the match and make the tooth look exactly as the other front tooth. I've never been happier. People have already noticed the change. I would recommend Dr. Amini and his practice to anyone who wants high quality work done at an affordable price and demands great customer service. I THINK THAT'S EVERYONE!!

• Pros: Great modern office, new equipment
• Cons: parking
