Stinson Beach is about as far west as Marin gets, and good dental care can feel even farther. That's why our coast patients like that everything happens in one Kentfield office — crowns, implants, Invisalign, root canals, even oral surgery — instead of bouncing between specialists across the county. It's a scenic drive over the hill, and we make it worth the trip with calm, careful, aesthetics-first care.
Getting here from Stinson Beach: From Stinson Beach it's about 35-40 minutes and roughly 18 miles east on Highway 1, winding over the hill and down into the Ross Valley to our office in Kentfield. We're happy to help schedule appointments so you only make the coast-to-Kentfield drive once.
Why Stinson Beach Patients Choose Us
One trip, every specialty
Living out on the coast means a long drive for anything inland, so we built the practice to handle it all in-house — same-day CEREC crowns, implants, veneers, Invisalign, root canals and oral surgery. No referrals scattered across Marin, no second long drive.
Same-day crowns worth the drive
Our CEREC technology can design, mill and place a crown in a single visit. For a Stinson Beach resident, that often means one appointment instead of two round-trips over the hill.
Comfort and sedation options
From nitrous to oral and IV sedation, we offer comfort-focused care so a longer trip doesn't have to mean a stressful one. Dr. G's approach is conservative, gentle, and easy to relax into.
Emergencies, even on weekends
We keep 24/7 on-call coverage for established patients, including weekends — reassuring when you're an hour from most of Marin out on the coast.
Comprehensive dental care for Stinson Beach
Because every specialty lives under one roof — same-day crowns, implants and same-day implants, veneers, Invisalign, root canals, wisdom teeth and oral surgery, sedation, whitening, and emergency care — Stinson Beach patients can handle nearly anything in one place. Explore our services to see the full range.
Out on the West Marin coast, getting to a full-service dentist usually means a drive over the hill — we try to make that one trip count.
