OUR STORY

Planned slowly, explained plainly.

Signet Dental began as one dentist's practice in San Francisco and is now three dentists and a team of nine. Cosmetic and implant work takes planning, so you see a written plan, the options and an estimate before treatment begins.

Every visit starts with listening. We take X-rays when a dentist decides you need them, use imaging to show you what we see, and leave the decision with you.

The Signet Standard

We think a cosmetic practice is judged by how well it listens, how clearly it explains and the care taken in the work.

  • Precision

    Shade, fit and shape are checked with you, not only for you.

  • Comfort

    A quiet room, a blanket on request and a break whenever you ask.

  • Discretion

    Private consultations and a timeline that suits you.
