“Best dentist in Marin” is a big claim, and every practice makes it. We'd rather show you the evidence: Kentfield Dental holds a 5.0-star average across 64 Google and Yelp reviews, continues the decades-long Kentfield practice of Dr. John Herschleb, and handles nearly every specialty — same-day CEREC crowns, CBCT-guided implants, Invisalign, oral surgery, sedation — under one roof in the heart of Marin County.
How to choose the best dentist in Marin
Verified reviews, not slogans
Read recent Google and Yelp reviews and look for consistency across years — not a handful of highlights. A 5.0-star average across 64 reviews is our answer to “prove it.”
Modern diagnostics
Low-dose 3D CBCT imaging, intraoral scanning and digital X-rays catch problems earlier and make treatment more precise. If a practice still takes goopy impressions, ask why.
Everything under one roof
Implants, wisdom teeth, root canals, veneers, Invisalign — the work most Marin offices refer out, we do in-house. Fewer hand-offs, one team accountable for the result.
Comfort & sedation
Nitrous, oral and IV sedation with continuous monitoring, plus a calm boutique setting — because the best dentistry is the kind you'll actually show up for.
Time and transparency
Unhurried appointments, clear explanations with your images on screen, and conservative recommendations — treating small problems before they become big ones.
Access when it counts
Same-day emergency slots and 24/7 on-call access for established patients — including weekends. Ask any dentist what happens when you call at 9pm on a Saturday.
