Brace yourselves , I went in on this review. I am just so happy an pleased I want everyone to know about this amazing practice and amazing doctor that works here !!!!!!! This is my second visit to all smiles dental . I came in for a tooth extraction , The tooth was broken down all the way to the gumline so I was very nervous as this wasn't going to just be a regular tooth extraction it was more of a surgical tooth extraction where they had to break the tooth into a few parts so they could take it out piece by piece. This scared the daylights out of me, But I knew it had to be done. Although I was super nervous, I knew that I was going to be in good hands because I had read all the yelp reviews of people getting tooth extractions from Dr.Ho and pretty much all not experiencing any pain swelling or discomfort. I had my appointment originally scheduled for Sunday but Dr.Ho asked if I could come in on a Friday and that he could take care of me sooner that way I would have the weekend to rest in case of any swelling. I really appreciate the fact that he offered that to me because it would have sucked to have to goto work on Monday after the extraction. Dr.Ho was aware of how nervous I was about swelling, pain and just the entire procedure in general. He instructed me to make sure to eat an hour before and take 3 advils 30 mins before comming in, which I did. During the procedure he was very gentile and really made me feel comfortable. His main priority was me being comfortable which really was appreciated. I was trembeling In the dentist chair before they starte and he was very calming and reassuring that everything was going to be ok and that I would be fine. I asked how long would it take Cus I was so nervous, he said he should be done by 4 o'clock. (30mins) he then asked me if I had any earphones and I could put one of my earphones in and listen to music to relax me during the procedure. He told me to leave one earphone out so that way he could talk to me during the procedure and make sure that it was comfortable throughout the whole process. He was so right I did not feel anything I barely even felt the needles when he injected me with the numbing stuff, and I feel like such a baby for being so scared for nothing. The timing was also impeccable as I sat up from the chair and looked at the computer the clock was at 4 o'clock. He wrote me a prescription for pain medication in case I experienced any pain the following day. He also gave me a home care instruction on how to take care of the socket after an extraction. He even text me later on to see how I was doing, told me to check in with him later that night . This man is absolutely amazing he is a blessing I am so happy that I have found him as my dentist someone who is passionate about what they do and truly wants to help people. It has now been about 24 hours since the extraction and I have experienced no discomfort pain or swelling whatsoever. I'm as happy as can be

Dr Ho is great! He was able to get me in for a same day Saturday emergency appointment after there was an issue with a filling that my previous dentist put in. The fix was to redo the filling, so I got to experience a side-by-side comparison of two dentists doing the same procedure. There were a lot of details that made the experience with Dr Ho way better! Attention to detail + patient safety: the office is spotlessly clean, safety protocols are followed, and all staff wear well-fitted N95 masks. Not cutting corners on these small visible things is a good sign that they're not cutting corners in your mouth. Comfort: Dr Ho was very careful to make sure that I was always comfortable: he began by applying some lip balm (no chapped lips!), was careful with the positioning of the suction device (not having it touch the back of your throat, triggering the gag reflex), didn't use any devices that force your mouth open (last dentist did this, it hurts your jaw), and was careful to adjust the anesthetic until I couldn't feel anything. Technology / office setup: The office is spacious and comfortable, meaning you have privacy and feel at ease. They have some pretty fancy modern tools, including a screen that displays your X-rays and a live mouth camera feed to give the dentist more visibility as he's doing his work. The newer dental tools also felt a lot less like "forceful scratching" and a lot more like "precision detailing" compared to my previous experience. This kept my anxiety levels way down, which was nice. Skills: I'm not a dentist, but from my layman's perspective, Dr Ho displayed a lot of skill & attention to detail compared to the previous dentist. For example, he noticed some decay on the tooth directly adjacent to my filling, and fixed that up as well since he was already in there. He also spent a lot more time fine-tuning the fit on the filling to make sure that my bite looked right and didn't feel weird after the procedure.

Dr. Ho, his office and his entire team are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! After a weekend of suffering from tooth pain (and a resulting massive headache) earlier this month, I ran across this office on Yelp during a search for a dentist office. I called Dr. Ho first thing Monday morning and informed him of my situation and the pain I was experiencing; I was in his office in less than an hour per his request! He checked out my tooth and set me up with an appointment to perform the necessary procedure a few days later! The endodontist (Dr. Lee?) that performed my root canal was so awesome and reassuring! He explained his way through everything, was very gentle and super patient and understanding with me. He literally restored my faith in dentistry and helped me to put aside the new fear I'd obtained of dental procedures that day! (I used to love the dentist, but ended up having an unnecessarily extensive, painful, and VERY traumatic experience at another office in my old hometown that ruined that sentiment!) When I returned to the office for my crown to be placed on the tooth by Dr. Ho the next week, Dr. Ho did me the favor of checking out another tooth I was experiencing some sensitivity with once he finished. That tooth had a crown on it that was placed by a former dentist a year and a half ago. It only took him a few short minutes to fix the issue! Since then, I have had SUCH ease eating and drinking on that side! Needless to say, this dentist office is top notch and I'm making it my home office! The staff is super sweet and accommodating. Dr. Ho truly listens to his patients and is always great at following up on how you're doing post-procedure! Love this office and my new dentist! Thank you so much, Dr. Ho!!!!

I wish yelp gave more star option because 'd like to give them 100/100... Or maybe even more. For starters, I get HUGE anxiety when it comes to going to the doctors or the dentists and this anxiety got even worse when I moved from Socal to Norcal. However, when I read the reviews for Dr. Ho, I decided to give this place a try! I called around 3 pm on Saturday hoping to make an appointment sometime later this week to get a consultation on why my upper gum and jaw were hurting. I was extremely thankful when they asked me if I would like to get it checked today and rushed on over. The vibe of the office was really welcoming and my anxiety from being at the dentist's office was slowly washing away. Dr. Zahur Subedar checked my teeth and he explained to me that my wisdom tooth was coming out and then proceeded to bring Dr. Ho over. Honestly, I was expecting to make an appointment to get my wisdom tooth out on another day but was pleasantly surprised that they offered to take it out right away. Dr. Zahur Subedar is absolutely amazing and I recommend anyone who's coming to visit have him be their dentist because he kept checking in to see if I could was feeling any pain and reassuring me throughout the entire wisdom tooth extraction which helped my anxiety immensely. In addition, I have already recommended all my friends to Dr. Ho's office because he has been nothing but kind, helpful, and extremely passionate with making sure I was okay after my visit. He provided me with his number and reminded me of things to look out for while my gum heals as well as checking in to see if I feel better. So I most definitely recommend All Smiles Dental and will most definitely come here again! :)

For some reason the system would not let me write my entire review here because of the word limit max. Dr. Ho has 5 stars and it should be 20 stars! I went in today on a Saturday on Christmas Eve for my first time because words could not describe the pain I felt in my infected tooth. No pain pills would work anymore, and antibiotics made it feel worse. I should also add that I had great anxiety/worry/fear about going to a dentist due to past experiences. I called around to different dental offices and of course they were not open. Dr Ho ended up texting me back within the hour and told me to come in asap, and he ended up coming to the rescue like he had on a cape(well he did it was just white and had sleeves and buttons). My emergency became his mission on this Christmas Eve! In short, Dr. Ho was: -Efficient -Kind hearted -Empathic -Accommodating -Works in a State of the Art, aesthetically pleasing office with all the newest technology -Extremely Detail oriented -Charismatic -Compassionate -Pain aversive (he doesn't like to see you in any kind of pain) -Patient -Genuine -Follows up with you after your visit even same day -Gentle handed -Friendly -Funny -Professional -Good Vibes -Empowering -Dedicated And he will numb you as much as you need and talk you through your worries of needles or pain! Dr Ho is one of those super hero doctors that will invest himself wholeheartedly into your healing. A rare find indeed! Best Dentist, and my new favorite Dentist! I am happy to now be a patient!

This is the best doctor I ever had on my life. About three weeks ago, I had a big infection on my mouth, the doctor drove all the way back from San Jose to San Francisco, at 9 PM just to see me, I thought that the problem was my lower left widow's teeth, but I couldn't open the mouth to remove it and the doctor took a x ray right away and told me that the problem was the upper left widow teeth, I was really scare of the pain that I was going to have in order to get it extracted, he did the extraction pretty fast, I didn't feel anything at all, I couldn't believe it, at the next day, I didn't have any pain at all. Then I continue assisting with this doctor to remove my others widow teeth, and he also told me that I needed a depth cleaning, never had one on my life, and now that I got it, I feel so good, my gums are pink again, and he already removed three of my widow teeth and I didn't feel any pain at all, usually my family members got a lot of pain when they got the widow's teeth removed. The prices are excellent as well, I thought it was going to be really expensive because this doctor has great reviews on every place, I made him to drive for 2 hours just to see me the first day because of my pain emergency, and it was so cheap that I just couldn't believe it :)

  • Katy Mann

Dr. Ho and his staff are awesome. I had avoided dentists after a HORRIFIC experience, but I cracked a crown, knew I need a filing or two, but was super nervous to get it fixed. All Smiles was recommended to me, and it is one of the best recommendations I've ever gotten. Let's just start with 4 things I've NEVER experienced in my dental history, that All Smiles does: 1) Dr. Ho puts sunglasses on you so you don't have to stare into that god awful light, or keep your eyes closed. 2) I also have crazy dry lips, and Dr. Ho would stop to apply chapstick - how sweet is that!? 3) Dr. Ho took pictures with his phone to show me the before and after side by side 4) Then he followed up with me to check in the night of my procedures to make sure I was feeling okay. And sent me the pictures of my before and after fix for my reference. (bonus points for his emoji game!) I appreciate that every process is explained to you, and they're very upfront and easily explain your insurance, and the cost breakdown. It's refreshing to find a dentist that is so patient focused, friendly, and you can tell Dr. Ho and his staff really do care about you!

  • Ali Izadi

Several of my teeth were very bad and needed to see a dentist. I didn’t take care of my teeth very well and as a result of that, I have to see a dentist at least once a year and because of my job, I have to travel all the time, I have seen a lot of dentist, until I moved to bay area. After some research and read some reviews, I decided to see Dr. Ho. He exam all my teeth and he found some of my old filling needs to be replaced and some needed crown. He fixed, my teeth very well and after seen a lot of dentist, he is the best. He is very nice and kind. If you have pain, he would do his best to get you in his office as soon as possible to make you pain free. Money comes to him at very last, and number one to him is quality work. As I said He is the best. From now on, I have decided he is going to be my dentist forever and no matter where, I go for work, I will travel to see him no matter what, and I know some times would be expensive, but it is worth it, to travel from far away to come to see Dr. Ho. I think the people in bay area is very lucky to have him. Do not search anymore and you are in right place. Believe me.

  • London Ching

Dr. Ho is seriously the best. I’ve always dreaded going to the dentist and believe it or not refrained from going for the past 7 years. I’m in my mid 20’s now, decided to get a teeth cleaning while living in New York and was informed that I had 4 wisdom teeth that needed extraction. One of those teeth had a cavity which I wasn’t aware of and was half rotten, food was always getting stuck inside and it was a pain to deal with. I decided to get the procedure done at home in San Francisco and stumbled upon Dr. Ho’s office on Yelp. I was super nervous on extraction day but Dr. Ho did a great job making me feel comfortable, and answered any and all questions I had. The whole procedure took about an hour with very minimal pain and swelling the next few days (close to none). Dr. Ho was consistently checking up on me via text even after hours which really shows he takes care of his clients. Today marks day 4 after my procedure and I’m back to eating solids totally pain free. Huge thanks to Dr ho for not cutting my gums. Definitely recommend coming to Dr. Ho for any dental needs.

  • Bob Wietrzny

My wife and I are from the Midwest, and we were in San Francisco for treatment at the UCSF Medical Center. During our three week stay, my wife visited Dr. Ho’s office for a standard check up and cleaning. She came back very happy with Dr. Ho and his staff. A few days later I had a veneer crack in half. On my wife’s recommendation, I contacted Dr. Ho’s office and they fit me in that same day. Dr. Ho quickly and professionally repaired the tooth. He then proceeded to generously reduce the cost for the repair by nearly two-thirds of the agreed upon quote. I was more than surprised by his act of kindness. Dr. Ho knew that I live 2,000 miles away so there was no prospect of my becoming a regular patient. I think he simply felt that it was the right thing to do, which speaks volumes. The next day he text-messaged me to make sure there were no issues, which there were not. He didn’t have to take these extra steps. But he did. Thank you Dr. Ho for taking care of my urgent dental need, and for your professionalism and generosity!

  • Mario Angel Gutierrez

I have to say is that I hate dentists, but I don't hate Dr Ho. He is very nice and seems to be very accommodating. I had gone to a different dentist to have a crown replaced and they made the crown too big and my jaw was killing me. I went to go see Dr Ho and yea he took X-rays again, just like any other good dentist would do given that your last X-rays are done prior to a dentist working on them. So new X-rays just make sense, not sure why anyone would complain about that. He filed it down and my pain has improved. I still have to go back in and have him redo the crown because I still have pain from time to time. He cleaned my teeth and of course it hurt, but it was bearable and he did an awesome and thorough job. Another thing I would like to say is that Dr Ho will call you and text you from his cell phone number. I've never had my dentists personal cell phone number. He really does care about his patients and about the reputation of his practice!

  • Katie Woods

Had an appointment on August 22nd for a cleaning for the first time at this office. I had read previous reviews and asked to be scheduled with Dr. Ho. Everything was very clean when I came in and I never felt uneasy about getting sick. I was walked to a dentist chair as soon as I got in. They took a couple xrays and saw I needed an invasive filling. Being his last client for the day, Dr Ho offered to stay late and do the filling. All in all it was the best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist. I felt absolutely no pain during and after the procedure which only took 20 minutes. He also took the time to do a cosmetic filling on my chipped front tooth and get a mold for a night guard retainer. The front teeth were so indistinguishable from each other, I had a hard time remembering which one was chipped!! Truly excellent work and I’m so glad I went here! Thanks Dr. Ho!

  • Annie Chou

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this dental clinic for composite fillings, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr. Ho is an absolute professional who not only performed the procedure flawlessly but also exhibited a remarkable bedside manner that put me at ease from the moment I walked in. The composite fillings I received are truly a work of art. Not only are they expertly crafted and seamlessly blended with my natural teeth, but they also feel incredibly comfortable. Dr. Ho took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring that I understood what was happening and alleviating any concerns I had. What truly sets this clinic apart is Dr. Ho’s wonderful bedside manner. They took the time to genuinely listen to my concerns and answer all my questions, creating a comforting and friendly environment. Highly recommend Dr. Ho and All smiles dental!

  • Christina M

I’ve been a patient at All Smiles Dental for some time and the level of care I’ve received is truly outstanding. The staff aren’t just friendly—they’re extremely knowledgeable and professional. My positive experiences and constant raving about their service have influenced both my dad and partner to start visiting All Smiles as well. They are now regular patients and are extremely happy with the care they receive. My journey with All Smiles began when an issue with my root canal crown led me here, after seeing several specialists. Dr. Ho and the team effectively addressed the problem at its root. From routine cleanings to complex procedures like root canal extractions, I’m incredibly grateful for their exceptional care. I always trust their advice and feel reassured that I’m in the best hands. All Smiles Dental is undoubtedly the best dental team in San Francisco!

  • Sam Silverman

Long story short, this place rocks! The team knows what they're doing, they're quick, honest and very knowledgeable. Wonderful experience. Honestly I found this spot on a whim, short on time, not in my local city, and in dire need of fixing a filling/cap that had fallen off of my front tooth. Not only did they fix this the same day that I found them and got me in quick, Dr. Ho pointed out aspects of my damaged tooth which my local dentist back in Los Angeles had failed to address before! (and I trust my beverly hills dentist) Dr. Ho even took the time to check in on me later that day to see if I had any pain or swelling. But the real above and beyond moment was when they informed me that they give a 10% on certain costs for people without dental insurance! Every aspect of this establishment could be described as going above and beyond the call of duty.

  • YU FANG

Dr. Ho save my life on New Year’s Day! I was suffering from intolerant pain since New Year’s Eve. I only slept 3 hours because the pain medication did not help at all. So I called all the dental clinics who offered emergency care I could find around my area on Google, I knew it was so hard to find a dentist to help me on holiday. Only one clinic answered my phone, but they can only see me the next day. Luckily, 5 mins later, Dr. Ho texted me and told me he could help me get rid of the pain the same day! And he opened his clinic just for me at 8 pm after a long drive from Vegas. He gave me the treatment for the problem tooth and I had no pain immediately. I didn’t even need pain medication that night and I slept 11 hours. I really appreciated Dr. Ho, he is a great dentist with magic hands!

  • Swaddledoobiedoo

I highly recommend Dr. Ho as your oral surgeon! He took time out of his Sunday to treat my broken teeth when no other dentist would. I had broken most of one off and caved two out of their sockets. It was impossible to sleep or eat, but while I was at the ER I was told to make an appointment for Monday because no oral surgeon would come out to operate for me on a Saturday evening. Fortunately, Dr. Ho responded to my calls right during closing hours and made an appointment for me for the morning. He patiently spent 3 hours fixing my teeth and was very careful to make sure nothing was causing me discomfort. Also, I appreciated how he explained what was wrong with my teeth in layman's terms and answered all of my questions and concerns. My thanks to Dr. Ho!

  • Kenny Brand

After an emergency I went to All Smiles Dentals to fix my front tooth. After a diagnosis from Dr. Ho, I needed a implant and was worried of not having the same smile again and also did not know what to expect from the treatment. Dr. Ho took care of my situation for the next 5 months that followed, and made the process smooth and easy. He was exceptionnly skillful and patient throughout the long treatment and made a temporory fix that looked quite identical to my original tooth. The crown now in place is looking great, Dr. Ho will see me again to take care of my smile for the years to come! I am very grateful to have find him as my dentist in SF. If you ever read that review, thank you for your amazing work and passion!

  • betsy abendroth

I have been going to All Smiles for about five years. I've been blessed with dental issues my whole life, and going to the dentist has always been a bit traumatic for me. I still remember my first visit there (I needed a full deep cleaning). I was nervous and trying to hide my anxiety. Dr. Ho was AMAZING. He has the most calming manner, he listened to all my concerns and made me feel as comfortable as possible. The staff is friendly and always remembers me. The new renovation is a bonus. I felt like I was walking into a spa. To anyone who may have put off going to the dentist and are feeling scared and apprehensive about taking the first step, All Smiles is excellent, and your teeth with thank you.

  • David Lee

Dr. Ho and his team are all stars! They run a very efficient practice and get you in and out super quick. I've been a patient here for almost 2 years and refuse to go anywhere else. Their prices/rates are fair, turn-around times are on point for anything from a lab (retainers, stay plates etc) and they're very accommodating. I come here for all my dental work, including getting two dental implants done by his amazing Periodontist, Dr. Joyce Cheng, who made the surgeries very quick, efficient and painless. I was never in the chair for more than an hour! I can't sing enough praises for the team here at All Smiles Dental. Best experience I've ever had, so happy to be a patient here!

  • Cary Norsworthy

I'm so grateful that I found All Smiles Dental. The office is friendly and responsive, and Dr. Ho genuinely cares for his patients. He recommends practical solutions that are as budget-friendly as possible. He's very trustworthy, and he's even talked me out of doing work that wasn't necessary. Aside from regular cleanings and X-rays, I've gotten some much-needed periodontal work and tooth repairs at All Smiles Dental. The staff is efficient, their work is very professional, and the office makes me feel like I live in a local community where everyone knows you. If you're looking for an ethical dentist who has your best interests at heart, go here.

  • Claire Colleran

Experienced lots of pain with my wisdom teeth , I called in a lot of pain and Dr Ho fitted me in that day. After seeing the xrays he found out that tooth was impacted and he said it was very important to get it out. I informed him of my fear about the dentist and he made sure I was as comfortable as possible. He talked me through the procedure and also highlighted to me how to clean the wound to ensure it healed properly. He then extracted the tooth and everything went well. My overall experience was great and I was delighted I went to Dr Ho to get my tooth out, I would 100% recommend him to anyone who like myself is afraid of the dentist ☺️

  • Jay Jin

Dr. Cuong Ho is a remarkable dentist, and I can't speak highly enough of his expertise, integrity, and kindness. His dental skills are top-notch, and I always feel like he's got my back when it comes to my dental health. Plus, he's a genuinely kind and caring person; he never recommends unnecessary treatments, which is rare in the dental world. What truly sets him apart is his genuine kindness and compassion. He takes the time to explain procedures and ensures his patients are comfortable throughout. I can't recommend him enough – if you're looking for a dentist who's not only highly skilled but also a great human being, he's the one!

  • Ujjwal Thukral

I started to experience intense pain in my tooth during work. That same night I couldn't sleep because the pain had gotten so strong. I called Dr. Ho's office for the first time and left a message because the office had closed already. Dr. Ho still called me back from his personal cell within an hour and the next morning took my X-Rays immediately without an appointment. He got my wisdom tooth out in a matter of minutes as painless as possible. Dr. Ho is extremely caring and makes himself very available to his patients. Highly recommend his practice and will definitely be returning for any dental needs. Thank you Dr. Ho! :)

  • lindsay moodie

I called to make an emergency appointment due to tooth pain. I got a hold of the office immediately and was able to make an appointment for same day 2 hours later. I was seen immediately when I got there and the procedure was quick and painless. By far one of the best dental experiences I have had in a long time. I am not a person who writes reviews, but the service and follow up was exceptional. I would also like to mention his prices were affordable as I don’t have insurance and even though his office is a ways from where I live in the city seriously considering making this my dental office. Thanks again, Dr. Ho!!!

  • Sybil Watkins

Had a very good friend come to this practice and was terrified when told she had an “asymmetric lymph node”. Dentist gave her ZERO reassurance and tried to pass her off to her PCP when he couldn’t answer her questions as to her suspected “asymmetric lymph node”. Patient left being told to see her PCP with ZERO reassurance about what the dentist felt in her neck. UNACCEPTABLE. If you are going to threaten patients with scary physical findings, be able to back up your concerns and reassure them that you are there for them. Basic patient care 101. Where is your bedside manner?!

  • William Mohler

I was with my last dentist for 20 years and then he retired early 2020. I had to find a new dentist mid COVID, and I needed a cleaning, an exam, and it turned out, an extraction. I am not one to read online reviews, but I did this time and they seemed current and all so positive. I LOVE MY NEW DENTIST! Dr. Ho and team are fantastic. I feel that I am in safe and competent hands and my visits have been seamless. Oh, and that extraction I had to have? It turned out to be the simplest and least painful dental experiences I have had. So I am one very happy person!

  • Sylvia N'guessan

Been going there for about 10 years now! Simply the best of the best dental care in the Bay Area. Dr Ho is the most pleasant, professional and excellent dentist I've had the pleasure to have him operate on me. I go into his office with anxiety and come out with zero pain and a smile on my face. He is so meticulous an efficient. I had this nagging cracked tooth syndrome, that he helped resolve within 30mn. He always makes sure to respect my preferences. The staff there, is always very professional and friendly. Overall, this is a top of the line dental care.

  • Philip Fleury

Dr. Ho was very friendly and professional. This was my first visit as my previous dentist had retired. The office was clean, the staff was polite/friendly and all dental equipment looked modern and new. In addition to doing the consultation, Dr. Ho also did the cleaning and that impressed me as he was involved in my entire appointment. He has a kind demeanor and clearly explained the current state of my teeth and mouth and made helpful suggestions. I was very pleased with my first visit and look forward to working with Dr. Ho to maintain my dental health.

  • Olivia Kim

Tooth be told…I have always hated going to the dentist; so when one of my tooth started to hurt - I knew I had to go see one. Dr. Ho from All Smiles Dental was amazing. In the later evening, I looked online for an emergency dental office and I sent All Smiles Dental an email and within minutes I received a response from Dr. Ho and was able to get an appointment for the next day. Dr. Ho made my procedure quick and painless! He even checks up on you to see how you’re doing :) Anyone who fear’s going to the dentist - I highly recommend going to see Dr. Ho!

  • Brett Makuck

All Smiles saved the day for me today! Took a hockey puck directly in the mouth and had no idea what to do about it so I reached out to All Smiles. Dr. Ho was super responsive from the very beginning and helped me navigate everything right up to fitting me in for an emergency visit first thing in the AM. His office is great and his staff is super friendly, and my teeth were able to be fixed without any major root canals, for now. They have me set up with followup plans so I can stop worrying and focus on my recovery. Thank you All Smiles SF!

  • Ashley Deck

I had a bad accident that my tooth broke. I was in a crisis on a Saturday. I contacted the clinic and was able to get in right away. They were beyond accommodating. I got the best care and treatment. Every person I came in contact with was sympathetic and knowledgeable. Everyone at the clinic made me feel cared for and informed on each procedure I needed. They got everything done and followed up with me. I’m beyond grateful for there services and kind patient care. Highly recommend this clinic. Dr.Ho does incredible work I’m so grateful.

  • Sarah Siegel

As always I leave impressed with the quality of their work and the commitment they have to finding the best path for the patient, and the health of their teeth, instead of the most expensive path. I trust the doctors here to always put the health of the patients tooth above profits, which is not something I can say a lot of other dentists in the city do. Added bonus they have specialists on staff in the event that you have a complicated issue, they will most likely be able to resolve it rather than having to refer you to somewhere else.

  • Lauren Watson

I hadn’t been to the dentist in 10 years and was terrified of coming. Dr. Ho and his team made everything so comfortable! He clearly explained all procedures and let me know the cost with insurance before proceeding — every health provider should do this!!! Before, during, and after pictures of the work done was so transparent, I love that. Professional, friendly, and welcoming services provided. Scheduling is easy and you receive a text reminder about upcoming appointments. If you’re hesitant like I was, come to Dr. Ho. He’s the best!

  • Honest Dave

Dr. Ho took me in at the end of a day on Saturday. Nice. He gave me antibiotics and an X-ray. He said that I had a "deep" infection and that I needed a root canal. He quoted me a price of nearly $5,000 for the root canal and restoration, far and above what I've ever paid for this before. What's more, after I did the antibiotic regimen I have had no problem since. I didn't need a root canal. I went to UCSF dental school, where they looked at it and also told me I didn't need a root canal. It's been a year and still no problem.

  • Emily Callahan

Wow wow wow. Doctor Ho easily lives up to his glowing recommendations. I woke up on New Years Eve with a infection in my tooth. My primary dentist didn't return my voicemail and emails and didn't have an emergency number. I started called dentists all over the city with no luck due to the Holiday. Until Doctor Ho! He quickly texted me and was able to help me with a consultation and medication. Absolutely amazing. He's so kind and truly cares. Thank you Doctor Ho! I'll be switching over to be a permanent patient now.

  • vanessa gonzalez

Amazing job done! I’m really happy with the care and patience Dr.Ho had towards my procedure of tooth extraction. They are amazing when it comes to answering phone calls and great replies through text ! All the staff are kind and make sure you feel comfortable specially with Dr.Ho’s sense of humor definitely made my visit great! They explain everything to you and are attentive making sure to accommodate you to have the best experience. They truly care about their patients. I definitely recommend All Smiles Dental !

  • Francisca Tran

Dr. Ho is by far the best dentist I've had!! My tooth extraction was absolutely painless. I have had super bad experiences with dentists in my past and expected a super painful process. I was terrified. However, I felt almost nothing during my extraction. Dr. Ho was extremely gentle. I expected to feel a sharp pinch when he was injecting the anesthetics into my gums, but I genuinely did not feel any pain. He got me in and out of my appointment super quickly. It was truly amazing. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Ho.

  • Michael Kagan

Dr. Ho and his team are fantastic. He is very skilled, gentle, intelligent, and kind. He did an excellent job cleaning my teeth, and carefully checked to make sure my mouth was healthy. He also performed my wisdom teeth extraction, which went extremely well. I was very worried about the extraction, but Dr. Ho explained everything I needed to know, and answered any questions I had. The extraction was quick and essentially painless. He is one of the best dentists I have had, and I will visit him again.

  • Shane Bjorkman

Was travelling US West Coast, and accidentally knocked out a tooth while in Yosmite. Luckily, next day was travelling to San Francisco so called All Smiles on arrival and Dr Ho immediately helped by giving emergency appointment outside of ordinary working times. The whole procedure tooth less than 40 minutes, and also cost less than I'd pay in London + less than I expected for an emergency appointment in the US. Thank you very much Dr Ho for the fantastic customer service.

  • Nick Aquilino

Dr. Ho is without a doubt the best dentist I have ever visited, and he goes out of his way to make his patients feel cared for. He is such a sweet and caring person, that I have referred other people to him in the hope that he builds his practice up and can earn more than he charges now. You will not find a better person to take care of your issues -- he stays late, and does extra work without asking for payment, just because of the type of person that he is.

  • Justin Ryckebusch

I recently called All Smiles Dental and Dr. Ho right after chipping my front tooth. Dr Ho followed up with me right away, and he scheduled me for an appointment the next day. He was able to repair the tooth perfectly. What a relief! He also gave me a thorough explanation of what happened with the tooth. I sincerely appreciate Dr. Ho’s responsiveness, clear communication, and dental expertise. I highly recommend Dr Ho and All Smiles Dental. A+ experience.

  • Ayman Shamma

Nobody likes emergency trips to the dentist. And nobody likes to find a dentist to take you in quickly. Of all the dentists I pinged, All Smiles Dental was fast to respond to my call for help and they saw me right away. Dr. Ho is friendly and professional and super efficient. The office is modern and up to date with the latest tech. I was in and out so quickly I can't really believe it. He's now my general dentist and I'm so happy I found this place.

  • Susan Yakushi

It’s Sunday. My tooth is throbbing. My regular dentist is unavailable. Looked for an emergency dentist. Just by chance found Dr. Ho (UCSF grad - a prerequisite of mine). Not only was he very responsive (within 10 minutes), he was thorough, asked all the right questions, asked for pictures, and was able to address my pain promptly and courteously…all while catching a flight and during the flight. Thank you, Dr. Ho. Words cannot express my gratitude.

  • Stuart Gill

Dr Cuong Ho is a real lifesaver! I broke one tooth and chipped another in an accident on new year's Eve, and he stayed open to see me when no other dentist in the city was willing, which was extremity important as I had an exposed root. He had my teeth replaced within an hour and was also very attentive to how much pain medication I needed. The check in desk attendant was also friendly and helpful. This is the only place I'll go to in SF anymore.

  • Greg Angel

After a poor experience following a tooth extraction I decided to find a new dentist and found All Smiles Dental/Dr. Ho. They were able to get me in asap and Dr. Ho quickly identified/removed a piece of exposed bone from the extraction site, which the previous dentist left that causing severe discomfort. Needless to say it was an all around great experience and I will be seeing Dr. Ho for any future dental needs. Thanks Dr Ho and team!

  • chris mague

I've been going to Dr. Ho now for over 5 years. They price fairly, do not upsell uneccessary procedures and are always professional. I've never had any problem with any of the work performed and zero billing/insurance issues. Finally, the weekend hours are super helpful for those with a tight schedule. Dr. Ho not only works incredibly hard, but on his vacation he travels and performs dental work in other countries gratis.

  • Tiffany Sung

Love this office and especially Dr. Ho! My family and I has been to his office for about a year already if not longer and every time, the experience has been wonderful. It's so clean and they take extra precautions when dealing with pandemic nowadays and I love how thorough & gentle Dr. Ho and his assistants or hygienists are ! I Totally recommend going if you're in need of a dentist or just want a check-up!

  • Kazusa A

Dr. Ho is my favorite dentist ever! He is friendly, caring, and very professional! I love that he was volunteering in developing countries in the past and he told me that he would like to do that in the future again. The staff and the people in the office are always nice too! Also their office is such a clean, comfortable, and welcoming space! We are so glad to have found ALL SMILES DENTAL! :)

  • Bubbley Singh

Don't go here. They lied to me about being in network. They told me that I could pay 250 for the cheaper fillings or 600 for the better ones. I asked why it's so expensive, and they told me most insurances don't cover the expensiver ones. In reality, my insurance would cover it, but again, only if you're in network. Which they lied to me about.

  • Evelyn Wang

Going to the dentist is never fun, but I'm so glad I found All Smiles Dental. I had not been taking good care of my teeth, so I had to have several fillings as well as a wisdom teeth removal procedure. All were quick and painless. The staff is professional and friendly, and Dr. Ho really cares for his patients and does quality dental work!

  • Brian Haney

I had an urgent dental need. It was a Saturday and I was leaving Town. Dr. Ho accepted me in as a first time patient and tended to my dental care to perfection. I highly recommend Dr. Ho and his team of professional staff to anyone looking for a primary dentist or whatever your dental needs are. Trust me, they’ll take good care of you.

  • Rhys McAleenan

Can't honestly recommend this dental surgery enough! I rang late in the day in extreme pain due to an infection. Dr.Ho stayed late past their opening hours to make sure I got pain relief even during these difficult times. I felt at ease from the minute I walked through the door knowing that Dr.Ho was doing the best thing for me.

  • Austin Nguyen

Dr. Ho was was wonderful! He was able to help us with our dental emergency even on a Sunday where other places were closed. He was fast to respond, professional, and very nice and polite even though he had to come in on a Sunday to help my wife with her crown. I would definitely recommend for your dental needs !

  • sam k

Sunday afternoon with a broken tooth and in pain, called Dr.Ho and went out his way on a Sunday afternoon and met with me at his office. He addressed the problem, very professional, he is a life saver! Not too many dentists will go out their way as he did, if any at all. Highly recommended, great dentist, A+++

  • sophia han

It has always been a present experience with All Smiles Dental. They understand that everyone is busy, and add their customers to their busy schedule at the last minute.

  • Nishi G.

The staff at All Smiles is fantastic, they’re kind, professional and genuinely try to help. Dr. Ho is my general dentist, and he also recently placed a crown in my mouth. He is honest, knowledgeable, and really stops at nothing to get the best results for his patients. Enthusiastic recommend!

  • Aye Chan

Dr. Ho is fantastic. I constantly had problems with my teeth before coming to All Smiles. Now my teeth feel great, and I saved thousands of dollars by only having work done that Dr. Ho recommended. He is super friendly, and he is very detailed in his work.

  • Vanessa Miranda

Dr. Ho is literally the best dentist I’ve ever had in my 35 years of life. I’m someone who used to be scared of dentists, but Dr. Ho made all those fears go away. I feel 100% safe with him and don’t even have dentist anxiety anymore haha :) Thanks Dr. Ho!

  • Brian Frank

Dr Ho has always been very friendly and accommodating to our needs. My husband, who had bad dental experience when he was a child and had always been wary of dentists, is happy to go to All Smiles for his check up and cleaning. That says a lot.

  • Chris Warren

Fell and knocked a fair chunk out of my two front teeth. Dr. Ho was able to squeeze me in at the end of the day, but still spent a bunch of time making sure he got everything correct. I'm extremely satisfied with my results.

  • Braden Volz

Dr. Ho and is team are kind and gentle. I was pressed for time because of a flight for work on Monday Morning. He and his team came in on a Sunday to make sure I wasn't in pain for my trip! Great service and great work done.

Dr. Ho is quick and good at what he does. I saw him for an emergency root canal, which went very smoothly. He also cares a lot about his patients and checked with me frequently to make sure everything was ok. Great dentist!
