Description

Specialties

Cosmetic Dentistry, Implants, and General Dentistry for all ages! I have been creating and maintaining beautiful smiles, and working with my patients to take care of their dental needs. My patients benefit from the latest technology: our digital x-​rays reduce radiation exposure; computer-​assisted design allows me to create beautiful all-​porcelain crowns during a single appointment instead of the traditional two. Together, we identify concerns and wishes, discuss options, and fashion an individualized treatment plan.

Our warm and friendly staff is dedicated to providing personalized and comfortable care ranging from the gentle touch of our hygienist to the use of headphones and choices of movies, TV, or music during your visit.

We offer early a.m. & evening appointments, easy access with free parking, amazing on-​time performance, as well as text/​e-​mail reminders.

Contact us today to experience the dental care and create the smile that you deserve!

Just had crown repair by Dr. Dab. No one is like him. Watched a great movie while he worked on me. He is an expert at what he does and his office could not be more pleasant. I can’t say enough great things about him.

Vallejo, CA
Dr Dab has been my Dentist for over 20 years and is the most professional, informative, gentle but assertive Dentist ever! He gets it done! Never unhappy with my result. He cares not only about the health of the teeth but the appearance he is meticulous about as well! He takes pride in his work! I strayed on accident due to a change in insurance and geography. but will not make that mistake again! He is worth the drive! He also has a tremendous memory and his service makes you feel welcomed! He is also a wonderful boss as it shows in his long time staff! They are just as amazing! Thank you Dr Dab!!!

I actually like going to the dentist thanks to Dr. Dab! He is so informative and attentive. His office is equipped with technology that allows you to see firsthand what’s going on inside your mouth. He was able to actually show me my cavities before filling them and the procedure was painless.
Hillary is absolutely awesome and I’ve never had a better hygienist. She’s friendly and takes the time to get to know me. She’s always gentle and makes the process fun and quick.
My dad and step-​mom recommended Dr. Dab and I’m so glad I listened. I would definitely recommend Dr. Dab, he and his staff are phenomenal!

you need to stay away from this guy– about 10 years ago i went to him for a consultation on a veneer. he said he could do it, but he also said i had 6 cavities he needed to fix/​replace immediately (costing a LOT of money– and time/​pain i’m sure!). i thought it was strange because my last dentists said nothing of this. i went for a second opinion and sure enough the other dentist said «you don’t have any cavities!»
it’s been ten years– i & since then have not needed one filling! this guy is a scam artist!!!

Dr. Michael Dab and his staff have done «the impossible»! Their skill, compassion, and mindfulness have converted me from someone extremely fearful of dentists, to someone who looks forward to their professional state-​of-​art care on a regular basis. They are always on schedule, take time to explain and answer questions; and, the office and treatment areas are impeccably clean and uncluttered. No matter the procedure, Dr. Dab spends time explaining every aspect; and involves the patient in the decisions and care plan.
You owe it to yourself! I highly recommend Dr. Michael Dab for your dental care.

I’ve been going to Dr. Dab for about 10 years now. Being one of those «fearful» dental patients, I have spent years avoiding the dentist until I’m in pain and have no choice but to go. Dr. Dab changed all that for me. He is kind, gentle, understanding and never tries to push me out of my comfort zone. His entire office staff is the same! I can’t say that I love going to the dentist now, but I can say that I no longer hate it thanks to Dr. Dab!

I have known Dr. Dab for over 20 years. He is not only an amazing dentist on caring for my teeth, recommending procedures to keep my teeth healthy but he is an expert on cosmetic dentistry. All his staff are friendly. helpful and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Dr. Dab.

I had a crown that kept coming out. I visited at least four top dentists in Marin and none of them could help me, they all said that the base of the tooth was too small to support the crown. I decided to give it one more dentist a try and went to Dr. Dab. Well, Dr. Dab fixed what none of the other top dentists could and twenty plus years and a ton of caramel chewing later, my crown hasn’t budged!
I trust Dr. Dab so much that when I moved to the outer reaches of the Sunset District in SF, I continued to go to him. That is one hour car drive each way. When I got married, I insisted my husband also make the drive, and he has not regretted it one bit. When my kids were of age to go to Dr. Dab, I started schlepping them too.
Try him out. He is incredibly honest and skilled. Dr. Dab works hard to keep up on the latest and greatest new dental procedures. Oh yes, and he is 1000% honest. He will never suggest a procedure that is not totally necessary. Hate to say this but some medial professionals are not as honest. You will never catch Dr. Dab suggesting a procedure out of desire to make a boat payment!
I am a picky (hypersensitive) as a dental patient is going to get. Dr. Dab is the best.

I came to Dr. Dab because I had a crown that kept falling out. Previously, I had seen three top dentists in Marin and a week after each visit, the crown fell out. The last dentist explained to me that «the underlying tooth was ground down too small it can no longer support the crown.» So basically I would have to have it pulled.
Wanting to avoid losing a tooth I decided to give it one more try and went to my sister’s dentist, Dr. Dab.
Fast forward years and plenty of taffy and gumball chewing later, and the crown hasn’t budged. Dr. Dab has proven himself time and again to be a supremely skilled-​dentist, heads above the rest.
So skilled that even after moving to the far reaches of San Francisco, to the Sunset district, I still willingly schlep myself, my husband and my twin nine-​year-​old boys and an hour and a half round trip just to see Dr. Dab.
Other than extreme-​skill, Dr. Dab is also extremely honest. I have had medical professionals in the past that I have suspected of champing at the bit to fill a cavity, or perform a procedure more for financial reasons than medical ones. Perhaps their speed boat payment was due or some fine-​wine order needed to be fulfilled? At least that’s what it felt like to me.
Rest assured Dr. Dab is not that way. If a cavity is beginning to form, he will keep a close eye on it, and only address it when it is the right time. Never needlessly rushing into «big repairs» out of desire for financial gain.
Last but not least, I admire how Dr. Dab always is keeping up with the best of the cutting edge dental technologies and breakthroughs. He takes the time to stay on top of his industry and to master the newest and best techniques. All to the greater benefit of his patients.
I cannot recommend Dr. Dab enough!

I have been going to Dr. Dab for many years & I highly recommend him. He is a caring dentist who is at the top of his craft. Also, his entire office staff, from the dental technicians to the administrative staff are friendly and highly competent. It is easy to schedule a convenient appointment and I have never been kept waiting more than a couple of minutes when I arrive.
