Talented to say the least, Dr. Mohamed Ali has obtained doctoral dental degrees from the Aleppo School of Dentistry and the Loma Linda School of Dentistry and has previously held teaching positions in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery departments.

Having patented a new form of implant dentistry known as Meta Implant, patients can expect to be treated by the highest quality of professionals who are always willing to expand the boundaries of what a dentist can achieve. Ali has been my friend and dentist for many years. I am so thankful to have him and his wonderful staff caring for my implants, dental needs and cleanings.
Services
Overlooking San Francisco's Union Square, Dr. Mohamed Ali DDS provides dental services that are unparalleled in quality and aesthetics. Possessing a team of dental practitioners that is not only tremendously talented with matching credentials to boast, patients can expect nothing but the best in terms of technology and results when visiting our dental office.

For a patient considering dental implants, Dr. Mohamed Ali evaluates a patient's CT scans, dental x-rays, photographs, and study models. This information allows for Dr. Ali to create a treatment plan based on the number of teeth that need replacement, along with the state of the jawbone. Cosmetic dentistry can make a dramatic difference for patients searching for ways to improve their smiles, from subtle changes to dramatic transformations.
Dr. Ali's professional affiliations include membership in the Center For Dental Medicine, the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, San Francisco Dental Society, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, Invisalign certified dentist, the Dental Board of California and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists.
Missing teeth are perhaps the most obvious and challenging obstacle to a beautiful smile.

For tooth replacement, there simply is no solution that is more durable or more lifelike than a custom-designed dental implant.

The environment changes the moment I entered the dental office for a pre screening You can smell a clean and sterile surrounding. I was met with a smile by all the people inside the office and they started the procedures with speed and professionalism very shortly. I noticed that all the equipment they have are very modern and I was very much impressed with the CT scan machine that took a 3D image of my skull. Then shortly afterwards, Dr. Ali sat down with me for the consult and an appointment was set up for the implants. What a pleasant experience.

Mohamed Ali is an excellent dentist! I am so glad I found the right dentist for me. I got a crown, an on-lay and an unexpected root canal- all in one visit! It was a lot to go through but Dr Ali and his assistant Arlene are very competent, very chill and work together seamlessly. I felt really well cared for by a professional who has peaceful focused presence and confidence in his high level of skills. I will be returning for sure when I get Carecredit paid off.

Dr. Ali is truly a top notch and dedicated dentist. He works very hard. He constantly improves and updates his office with a latest cutting edge technology. His office is like one stop shop. No need to go to different specialists for each procedure. Everything, from oral surgery to cosmetic procedures, can be done in his office with a highest quality and care. He is always on top of the industry updates. My husband and myself are still his patients for 11 years now and our 8 year-old child has recently joined us. Dr. Ali mainly works with adult patients, but we decided to introduce our daughter

Dr. Ali is quite possibly one of the best dentists I've been to in SF. I've had terrible experiences with other dentists that basically try to milk my insurance and woo me with a free toothbrush, but Dr. Ali tells it like it is and truly cares about his patients. He won't recommend things you don't need because he's a trustworthy doctor.

Even though he doesn't accept my insurance, I still pay out of pocket for procedures here because he is THAT good. Wish I knew about him when I first moved to SF.

Ok Dr Ali and his team are officially THE BEST!!! I mean from the time I started going there I always thought they were 5-star but I'm lazy so never wrote a review. Today I had another appointment.. Dr Ali started the treatment and while waiting for the anesthetic to kick in on me he went to deal with another patient. Through no fault of anyone's he ran into some issues and had to spend longer than he expected with that person. So I was waiting about 30-45 mins longer than expected. They checked in on me multiple times, asked if I was ok or if I wanted to change my appointment etc. I

Dr. Ali is by far one of THE BEST dentists in San Francisco/ BayArea. He is absolutely THE BEST dentist I've seen in my life! Trust me, I have bad teeth and I've been to many practices but I have never had such amazing experience like this.

Dr. Ali is so kind, very empathetic with his patients. If you are looking for a doctor who is knowledgeable, experienced and cares about their patients; Dr. Ali is the one!

I went to his practice, for wisdom tooth extraction with IV sedation. I was very nervous and scared. I had a horrible experience with my previous dentist; it was a nightmare

I got my top two wisdom teeth extracted and it was a much easier operation than what I was expecting it to be. Quick and easy, I was out before long.

Good, because: friendly staff, operations quick and painless, clean office, modern equipment.

Bad, very bad, because:
1) Root canals don't last long. I had three or four with Dr Ali, one failed 2-3 years later --tooth actually split into two-- the other failed 4-5 years later. This is despite the fact that I take good care of them.
2) Salesy. I learned that 2-3 of these ops were unnecessary. I went to Dr Ali for an immediate need. He ended up selling me those other root canals, and wisdom teeth extraction ops + signed me up for a credit card!? I was new to the country and I had told him

The moment I set foot in this clinic, I felt comfortable, the professional treatment I got did enhance this feeling, I got a detailed explanation to my case with a comprehensive treatment overview.
Appointment precision is another thing that I appreciate, reminders is sent to your email plus texting messages, no extra waiting has experienced.
Many thanks to Dr. Mohamed Ali for the treatment I got and that's a testimony from a person who had bad experiences from another professionals in this domain and considered by other people as a very picky person!

I've been going to Dr. Ali for many years and he has taken great care of my teeth! He and his staff are very knowledgeable and professional. With all the state of the art equipment, crowns can be made while I wait requiring only one visit and X-rays are taken and available immediately. I'm very happy with the service I've received.

Dr. Ali and his staff are always very professional. They take care of my teeth. I like the fact that crowns are made in the office. Only entails 1 visit. The fit is always right on. All other work has been very good. I would recommend Dr. Ali. I have been a patient ever since he opened his practice at 450 Sutter.

Really enjoyed my visit to Dr. Ali's office! He was so personable and even took the time to go over the mundane paperwork personally to welcome me as a patient. He gave me a thorough examination, screening for mouth cancer which is supposed to always be done, but many do not. I had to most gentle teeth cleaning I have ever had and I was sure they werent going to be as sparkly as before. I was wrong! Nice and wide and no soreness. Unfortunately, I must continue my relationship with Dr. Ali because I have some tooth and gum issues! haha. Who likes the dentist, really? He provided me with

I went to Dr. Ali since I was not happy with my
smile and my teeth were always chipping. His staff is awesome since they made it possible for me to see Dr. Ali right away. They are very quick to respond and send text reminders about my appointments.

Took x-rays of my teeth and he discussed options for the route we would take to get me closer to a nicer smile. He explained these options very thoroughly and made sure I was comfortable
with the treatment plan we were going to use.
He makes sure that his work is something that I would be happy with.

One front tooth was chipped off then he told

Did not enjoy my visit with this dentist. The hygenist was awesome, but he told me that I would need to have my 2 year old bridges replaced because they were not done right. I told my old dentist this who is retired and a friend and he said drop him.

He was not very friendly either. I found him just not pleasant.
