Services
Since 2012 we at Park Smile pride ourselves in caring for your whole family's dental needs. We serve pediatric, adult, and orthodontic patients of all ages. Working with our staff of technicians who are highly trained to cater to the individual patient is our comprehensive team of specialists: Pearline Chang (our pediatric specialist), Geetan Virdi (our adult specialist), and Scott Lebus (our orthodontic specialist and founder of the practice).
Seeing the dentist early as a child sets the pattern for excellent oral hygiene for a lifetime. Caring, skillful, and conservative in treatment, Dr. Chang tunes her treatments to every patient's individual needs and never recommends the unnecessary. The best way to maintain good oral health is to visit your dentist on a regular basis.
Dr. Lebus carefully vets all promising technologies and chooses the best-in-class to introduce into patient care. With the ever growing number of new systems and treatments coming to market, it is vital that an experienced practitioner weeds out what is just marketing, and what is indeed truly best for the patient, regardless of their time on market.
We're proud to be on our 9th year serving the community as your local SF dentists and orthodontists, for both children and adults. We provide trusted and caring dentistry and orthodontics for the entire family, with multiple specialists under one roof.

We're proud to be on our 20th year serving the Marin community as your local orthodontist.

Since moving to California in his teens, Dr. Lebus has called the Bay Area home.

I had the best experience at Park Smile. It had been two years since my last dental visit between frequently moving and a global pandemic. Needless to say, I was pretty worried about my dental health. The staff was so welcoming and friendly. They took their time and did not rush. They were extremely thorough and provided great patient education. A good dental office is difficult to come by, and I honestly hadn't had a "great" experience until coming here today. I am so grateful my boyfriend and I found Park Smile, we are here to stay!

Extremely disappointed with how this office handled our last visit. My child has been a patient for the last several years and I've never experienced such unprofessionalism. Front desk person Kathy printed me a quote for the days services for my child totaling over $600 (even though I had just booked a general exam and teeth cleaning but got upsold on all these extra procedures) then when it came time to pay she said an amount over $100 more than the quote she had just given me. We do not have dental insurance so we pay cash out of pocket and so I was incredulous at the discrepancy which

My son's first dentist visit. Staff was very friendly and they tried to make the process as comfortable and efficient as possible. As a first time parent, we were probably more nervous about the visit than our son was, but we are definitely put at ease knowing exactly what to expect for his next visit. #parksmile #buzzybooth

I've been a client at Park Dental for a few years, and the service I get has depended heavily on who's my dentist at that time. Their staff are always good, but I was actually considering changing offices because I was not impressed with the last dentist I had there, who spent almost no time with me despite at the time recommending a pretty drastic course of treatment.
However, I needed a cleaning after the pandemic, and their office is conveniently located, so I gave them another chance today.
The great news, is that they have brought on board Dr. Geetan Virdi, and she is just excellent

We took our toddler to Park Smile and had a very positive experience. They were on time which made it easy with a 2 year old, and the dental hygienist completely understood how to approach a toddler who never saw a dentist before. The dentist did a thorough exam afterwards and provided good recommendations moving forward. While just one data point, based on first impressions, I would recommend Park Smile.

My daughters just had their first appointment to have their teeth cleaned. I was able to get them an appointment very quickly and the hygienists were great with them and made them feel very comfortable being at the dentist for the first time. I decided to make an appointment for myself to have my teeth cleaned. Unfortunately a few days before I had my appointment they contacted me to say the hygienist I was scheduled with would not be in the office for my appointment and they would have to reschedule me. I was very upset, so they worked very hard to find me another appointment for the same day

This is a review just for the INSANE balloon art! This seriously makes my morning when I'm on my way to work and I walk by and see a new balloon sculpture.
Like WHO is making these??? I like to imagine that it's a dentist here, whose real passion is balloon art. I hope that all the kids coming in here are at least amused by these balloons as they walk into a scary session to fill cavities.
Whoever is making these balloons, keep doing it. I will always be your local Inner Sunset fan.

Have taken my kids here for 2 years. The first time was great. The dentist was nice, polite and took time to answer questions. since he left, I've been more disappointed each time. The dentists have poor bedside manner and no time. Most recently Dr Pearline Chang never bothered to introduce herself (I only know her name because I looked her up in the website). Because my 2 kids had appointments at the same time, I was with my younger child when she saw my older child without me there. When I asked her if there was anything to tell me about my older child's exam she said no and she already

Our previous dentist no longer takes delta and we heard about this place from one of our friends. I made an apt at least a month ago, the front desk lady tells me she can't verify my insurance which I gave her my ss# and my husband insurance card information when we set up the apt. She should be able to get this done by calling me ahead of time and not waiting until I get into the office. There are very little toys in the office for kids to kill time. Never been to the office that has no tv in the room. The assistant keeps asking if we have an x-ray or what did we do with their teeth before

Initially when I came to Park Smiles via a reference from a co-worker, I felt good about bringing my toddler to their offices. The initial hygienist was kind and patient and the dentist was great. I decided to switch over to Park Smiles as well and had a great couple of initial general cleaning visits.
Then...my last couple visits were AWFUL. My last real visit was with the new dental assistant who was sweet in personality but horrible in skill set. I always rate my visits based on the hygienists cleaning my teeth since I feel they are the ones i meet with often. She complimented me on how well

We've been seeing Dr. Lebus for many years now with our 3 kids. He's incredibly kind and relaxed and puts the kids at ease without talking down to them. He always goes over all our options considering cost, effectiveness and practicality, which has been really helpful given the varying levels of responsibility my kids had at different ages. The office itself is lovely--they have a nice garden in the back and the waiting room is very well done. They are always kind if I need to reschedule due to illness or my own mistake in over booking our lives. As a side benefit, I love that it&apos

SO NICE HAVING A DENTIST AND ORTHODONTIST IN ONE OFFICE!
I came here after basically paying out of pocket at another local dentist. I was referred here by a friend from work who informed me that Park Smile took our dental insurance. I have met with both the dentist and Orthodontist here. The dental experience was one of my best. Both the hygienist and dentist were very friendly and I didn't feel rushed at all (I can be a bit chatty).
The Orthodontist also gets 5 stars. I originally met with him to see about invisalign. Athough, I could have easily gotten Invisalign, he saved me time

3.5 stars but hey I rounded up.
Pros:
- in network
- located near my house right near the academy
- specializes in pediatrics
- not a ton of paperwork to fill out for new patients including that one about "authorize us to charge your credit card by listing it here and give us your social security number"
- front desk staff were friendly and the hygienist Penelope was sweet.
So we came here from one Parker which is only pediatrics. Very different experience from finding parking to the actual visit. Here are some things that were different:
- no cute little doggies making the patients

Wow. Just wow wow wow: BEST kid dental practice- ever!
We had to leave our dental practice because they weren't in-network. Even basic check-ups and x-rays are so expensive; out-of-network just doesn't cut it.
And to be honest, I wasn't expecting much because Blue Shield only has 12 pediatric dentists to choose from. I picked the practice in a kid-friendly neighborhood of the city and crossed my fingers.

Our son had a dental emergency. The first call was to his dentist. I called during office hours, no answer, left a message. No call back. Tried again, this time opting to dial the emergency # provided. No answer, left a message. No call back.
We took our son to emergency. They agreed that he needed to see his dentist ASAP. We called Park Smile's emergency line once more. No answer, left a message. No call back.
Called our pediatrician for help. By this time, it was the weekend. We were referred to another dentist - saw us immediately.

So excited to have found this place in my dental network... Thank you once again Yelp! Seriously, who would have thought that at one point we would all be finding our doctors and dentists and chiropractors on Yelp?! Well, I'm happy that's the case because it helped make my daughter's first dentist appointment an amazing experience.
It was painless to make an appointment over the phone. They even send you email and text message confirmations to remind you of your appointments. This is super helpful because I know I'm not the only mom of a toddler who still claims, "pregnant
