A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.
We are happy to accept new patients into our family friendly practice. Our practice is conveniently located on the corner of San Pablo Ave. and Central Ave., 2 blocks from El Cerrito Plaza BART & within walking distance from El Cerrito High School. We offer free parking in our private lot, entering on Central Ave., and we are Wheelchair accessible.
If you are experiencing a dental emergency, you can be assured that we will do our best to accomodate you and relieve your pain. Please call the doctor's cell phone at 415-845-0217. If they are out of range and do not respond within 15 minutes, then we ask that you phone the Berkeley Dental Society emergency referral service at 510-865-6334, and they will put you in touch with an on-call dentist.

After years of being with the same dental office, we left. Finding a new one was not as easy a task as we'd hoped. Dr. Iwane's office was the 3rd in three years, and I'm thrilled to have found him. He's great, and so is his staff. He squeezed me in for a toothache, and neither he nor his staff tries to "upsell." Just the treatment and preventive measures necessary. He really is terrific, so I highly recommend him.

My first visit to Dr.Iwane’s office. The initial checkup was very thorough and conducted by Dr.Iwane himself. He showed me some xRays and kindly pointed out some issues to watch out for. I felt very appreciative of the amount of time he devoted to my check up. The office is very clean and Covid protocols are in place.

I’m a patient of many years who’s always had good experiences with cleaning and some more complex procedures like crowns. Dr. Iwane respects my desire for minimal intervention and doesn’t push unnecessary treatments. A recent experience proved how lucky I am to have Dr. Iwane in my city. The staff kindly fit my 82-yo mother in to their busy schedule at the last minute to address a sharp broken tooth that was causing her much pain. The problem was addressed in 30 min. As a bonus I got to see that the COVID protocols in place are excellent and the office is newly remodeled. I’m very grateful

Dr. Ian Iwane is an excellent dentist. I am very choosy when it comes to my dentist due to poor dental work in my past. I needed work done on one of my front teeth. I had just switched to Dr. Iwane and I needed to trust him to do a superb job. He did not disappoint me. He is caring and an expert. I highly recommend him.
