Mina Levi, DDS

Aside from being a meticulous and effective dentist, Dr. Levi is warm and personable as is her entire staff. She has a beautiful suite with all top of the line equipment that is centrally located in Union Square. She also works closely with an endodontist in the same building making the bridge between practices easy. Overall, I can’t say enough good things about this dentist.

Mina is great. She came as a recommendation from another dentist, and those are the recommendations that I trust. She’s done two crowns on me so far, and they are fabulous. I go there for all my work & recommend her to others.

I came to Dr. Levi based on a recommendation — I had been told that she does great work, her office is small & inviting, but high tech, and that she is a very nice and knowledgable dentist. I’ve now seen her 5 times over the course of the past 2 years — for cleanings, small fillings and a larger bit of work that needed to be done. During these experiences, I found that all of the above is true and more! She is incredibly helpful and great at explaining what needs to be done and why. She isn’t pushy at all and gives clear options and an action plan once a decision has been made. I’ve had experiences before where dentists have been quick to push me into major work — she does the opposite. She always recommends starting with the least invasive option and allowing time to see if that has fixed the problem. All of that aside, she’s very kind and gentle — I still don’t like going to the dentist but she’s made the experience as enjoyable as it could possibly be!

I’ve been here twice now for regular check-​ups and cleanings. The hygienist has a bad attitude and I wonder why she still works there if she hates her job so much. The front desk woman does appointments and checks insurance benefits and gave me the wrong information — twice. I haven’t moved and I haven’t changed insurance or jobs. They also try to up-​sell you with sealants and fluoride treatment — I haven’t had a cavity in over 25 years!

I couldn’t be happier with the standard of care I received from Dr. Levi and her staff. I went in, concerned about the state of my teeth, etc. The entire office was welcoming, and supportive, taking the time to thoroughly examine and clean my teeth, x-​ray them, and explain the treatment options. I was impressed by Dr. Levi’s approach to the repairs/​treatment needed, explaining what was a priority v. a «watch item.» My cleaning was thorough and wonderful done. Thank you all.

I have been very happy with the level of service I have received from Dr Levi. I was referred to her from a friend, and in turn I have recommended her to everyone I know in need of a dentist and they have all been very pleased. Dr Levi is very professional and thorough, and her staff are great too. Highly recommended!

The Dentist Dream Team is what I call them. Dr Levi is the best of course and have written a review about her before. Today I wanted to mention her hygienist, Beth, who did a really good job of cleaning my teeth as they were a bit stained from all the tea I drink and advised me to use my electric toothbrush all the time not half of the time so far I have taken her advice and my teeth still look very clean… Thanks Beth for the excellent cleaning and good advice. Also Ali the receptionist is nice and friendly and gets back to you quickly. Cheers Ladies!

Dr. Levi and her staff are friendly, informative and courteous. However, I also experienced the sloppiest cleaning of my life. My face was slimed during the cleaning — gross. The cleaning itself was okay but not especially thorough and Dr. Levi didn’t come by after the cleaning for a final check, which would have instilled me with a bit more confidence.

Dr. Levi contacted me and offered a complimentary cleaning. She did it herself and did an excellent, thorough job.

just had an old filling replaced by Dr. Levi.
i experienced absolutely no pain at all… even during the shot!
i would highly recommend her and i will be going back to have my other fillings replaced. they are about 30 years old and starting to get decay around them… so its time :-(

I came to Dr. Levi at the recommendation of two colleagues and I’ve not been disappointed. It’s a small practice and the great part is that Dr. Levi gets to know you as an individual and isn’t afraid to take the extra time to get to know more about you and your dental history to prescribe the best treatment for you.
Both Dr. Levi and her team are genuinely enthusiastic about dental care and are inspiring in getting you to take better care of your teeth and in the 8 months+ of care under her, my teeth and gums have never been better.
I’m about to start Invis-​Align treatment and it’s very reassuring to know that she has the experience and that my dentist is easily contactable should I have any questions.
For all those who’ve had bad experiences and are just distrustful of dentists in general, I would say give Dr. Levi a try and you’ll find out that visiting the dentist can be a pleasant affair!
Bonus points: The new equipment and tech really helps in just visualizing the state of your own teeth.

I have not been the most diligent person with regards to regular check ups. So with the advent of new insurance, I chose Dr. Levi almost at random (Amazon group thingy, I believe).
I am glad I did. They are very friendly and Dr Levi is thorough in her explanations about what needs to be done. It was just me; I did not feel like part of an assembly line, which has been my past experience.
I imagine I will be more diligent now.

Broken tooth, need to see a dentist the same day, they fit me with without hesitation. Professional and friendly front office staff. Dr. Levi is confident and a very skill dentist.

She is AWESOME. She is patient and friendly and very informative (it made the sometimes scary experience of going to the dentist a pleasurable one). If you’re looking for a great dentist in SF — I highly recommend going to Mina. The staff is also very nice.

Really like Dr. Levi. Hubby and I have moved with her from the «pretty art gallery» style Jackson Sq Dentistry over to the straightforward 450 Sutter (brand new equipment, but it’s an old art Deco bldg).
Customer service is great and I don’t think she will fill cavities without reason! I have been shown photos of the said cavity where needed and given the choice of waiting to see, or taking action so I appreciate her honesty — and gentle techniques.

Fantastic service! Always honest and willing to go the extra mile for the client. Couldn’t be happier and will continue to refer friends.

One of the best experiences i’ve had at a dental office! Dr. Levi is a professional, personable dentist with very accurate diagnosis and treatment! Her office is comfortable and very clean and has a very friendly staff!

Dr. Levi has a small but welcoming office at 450 Sutter. Her team is very pleasant and professional and makes pleasant a visit that most of us view with dread. I have had a regular dentist for years and visited Mina on the recommendation from a friend. It was the first time that I received such a thorough review of the condition of my teeth combined with a full plan to ensure the preservation of good oral health. She pointed out that my silver fillings that I have had for the last 35 years were putting pressure on my molars and could eventually cause them to crack and therefore should be replaced. Sure enough a month later, a big chip came off the molar, necessitating a trip back to her for the work.
I appreciate the time that Mina takes to fully explain the procedure that she is going to do and then during the procedure, continues to check it to assess how you are feeling. I believe that she is up to date on the latest technology and approaches to care.
Well I still don’t look forward to going to the dentist, when I do, it will be back to Mina.

Who knew dentistry could be so right?
First off, the office was so beautiful that I thought it was an art gallery, or a furniture store, or a high-​end drug-​trafficking hub. Exposed brick walls, great art, super helpful receptionist… not your average dental experience. Not a single «Top hits from the 80s, 90s, and today» played over the speakers. Are you sure this is a dental office?
I have to admit, I was a little nervous because I had neglected going to the dentist for… well… ahem… more than the recommended 6 months. I bought a daily deal for a cleaning, X-​ray, and consultation, and even then, I put it off until it was almost expired. But the very cute, friendly receptionist was able to book me PAST the expiration date while still honoring the deal. Niiiiiice. If I was a dude, and single, I probably would’ve fallen in love with her.
Mr. Mina Levi is all you could want in a dentist. Helpful, gentle, informative, and never made me feel guilty about not flossing. Well, maybe a little bit, but I’m sure it was for my own good. She explained what was going on in my mouth, put me at ease, and made recommendations without pressuring me.
Overall, the experience was surprisingly great. I may even be willing to make a second venture out to the office, even though its in no way convenient to my home.

I was a patient of Mina Levi DDS for over two years and she was amazing! If you have a fear of dental procedures, like me, Dr. Levi is the dentist for you. She is very calm and will explain what she is doing every step of the way. The anesthetic shots were almost painless (and I have a fear of needles, along with everything else.) The equipment in her office was state of the art – the waterlase eliminated the need for the traditional drill and was completely painless without any anesthesia/​shots!
Also, the billing was always explained to me in advance, and since she took my insurance, I only had very minimal out pocket expenses. I also never felt the office was after my money, but that they were providing the best care needed.
Sadly, I am no longer a patient, since I took a job 40 miles south of San Francisco, but if I ever work in the city again, I will be sure to return.

I have been seeing Dr. Mina for a few years now and will be continuing with her. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and most of all gentle and professional. She insists on using only the most modern tools, techniques, and materials.
Dr. Mina Levy is now part of Jackson Square dentistry, and has a new modern facility downtown at Washington Street. I suspect that any negative reviews have to do with her former partnership with Dr. Nick Levi (Aesthetic Dentistry), not her current partnership with the reputable Dr. Jeffrey Katz.
