Beautifully designed, modern dental office in SF with top of the line equipment and chairs. Over the 5+ years I've been a patient, I've had: * a periodontal deep cleaning that improved my gum pockets and has been well maintained since * regular cleanings & a single filling Despite some turnover in my attending dentists, the standard of care has stayed consistently high, and the team overall has shown depth and expertise. read more

I walked into this office a few months ago with TMJ pain which led to difficulty eating, consistent tension headaches, and tight neck muscles. Three months later, I walked out without any of those symptoms. Would highly recommend if you're looking to address TMJ symptoms! read more

I'd been having almost daily headaches for YEARS and every medical professional I saw told me to take a tylenol. Enter Dr. Chui... he has cracked the code on the TMJ-sleep-nasal airway connection and his passion for helping improve people's quality of life is clear. The process was great, I felt well cared for and all the recommendations were evidence-based. Now since treatment - after more than 20 years of suffering - my sleep quality has improved, my mental health has improved, my jaw bone is regenerating, and the headaches are nearly gone. If you have tension in your jaw, poor sleep, or recurring tension headaches - run, don't walk, to see Dr Chui. read more

I came to SF Dental Wellness after years of TMJ symptoms that I now think likely developed from childhood orthodontics to correct an underbite. By the time I found this clinic on my doctor's referral, my jaw was clicking constantly, I had recurrent headaches, and I was experiencing what felt like jaw dislocation while eating. Miguel and the rest of the staff were incredibly helpful, kind, and thorough throughout the process. Dr Chui's non-invasive approach was exactly what I needed, and I'm thrilled to report that the frequency of my tension headaches has significantly decreased, which was my biggest concern. The included red light panel has also provided neck tension relief that chiropractors and masseuses could never solve, and clicking is far reduced. Before and after CT scans clearly showed how the orthotic opened more space in my jaw joint. That said, there are some things to know going in. First, this treatment is expensive and almost certainly not covered by insurance. Second, expect to be presented with additional procedures like turbinate reduction and be prepared to decline if they don't feel necessary to you. Third and most importantly: my bite changed after treatment, and I wasn't expecting this. The clinic offered bite reconstruction or suggested I see an orthodontist, but also warned me about the orthodontist route since the jaw shift is so specific and a traditional orthodontist might not understand it. I wish the clinic could partner with an orthodontist familiar with TMJ cases, or at least explain this possibility upfront. Finally, I would have appreciated more transparency at the beginning about treatment costs and which procedures would likely be recommended. Despite these frustrations, I'm genuinely grateful I did this treatment rather than waiting and risking surgical intervention. The improvement in my daily quality of life has been significant. Just go in with realistic expectations and clear questions about your individual treatment plan and costs. read more

Dr. Kwon is amazing! So glad I chose this dentist. Everyone is super nice and even though I moved jobs I still come here.

Been coming here for regular cleanings and I'm also doing my ClearCorrect treatment with them. Staff is friendly, appointments run on time, and they explain everything clearly. The cleanings are thorough and the aligner process has been smooth so far. Would recommend. read more

I would have frequent jaw pain starting from middle school, and had been dealing with frequent headaches, jaw pain, bad posture, etc. This would follow me throughout my life. During my second year of grad school, at a very stressful point in my life, I clenched my jaw, and I heard a *snap,* which was proceeded with 2 days of immense jaw pain that prevented me from eating. I couldn't take it anymore, did a google search, and found Dr.Chui's services. Dr. Chui and his office were always kind and helpful with any questions or concerns I had throughout these past 8 months. Now, after completing my treatment I have little to no pain, along with so many more positive outcomes. Thank you Dr. Chui and the SF Dental Wellness Team! read more

Dr.Chui, thank you for taking care of my jaw and adjusting my bite. My bite is much better than before. I have been grinding my teeth for 17 years. After your treatment, my tinnitus has decreased and my sleep quality has improved. Thank you very much!! Sherry read more

Top notch TMJ treatment!!! Dr. Chui and his staff are amazing. I came to see Dr. Chui for the first time in October for a TMJ evaluation and have been wearing my orthotic for 2 months now. I suffered from neck pain, jaw pain, and significant facial swelling from TMJ. I have also been suffering from migraines for years and have tried many abortive and prophylactic medications without relief. I am now migraine free, pain free, and the swelling is gone. I am so happy with the results and I still have months to go! Before and after pics for reference read more

See all

I've been going to Dr. Chui for the past 6 months for my TMJD and neck pain/tension headache issues. He had an orthotic made for me and I wore it while coming in weekly for laser therapy and orthotic adjustments. While the process felt long and progress felt minimal every week, I'm now so glad I put that time in. Seeing my CT scan today compared to the first scan 6 months ago was so satisfying! There is now more space in my jaw joint, which means no grinding. I've also slowly but surely been feeling less neck pain and headaches. I now see my orthotic as a helpful tool to use whenever I'm feeling stressed / a headache coming on, and I plan to keep wearing it. Dr. Chui himself is very friendly and patient with explaining how the whole process works and why it works. His technicians and staff are also friendly. My only critique is sometimes the clinic gets really busy or is understaffed, so there were a few times where I waited for my appointment for ~30 minutes. Other than that, my overall experience was great. read more

I've had a lovely experience with Dr. Chui's office. I've mostly worked with Dr. Jay. He always takes the time to answer my questions and address my concerns. He walks me through my options, gives me his opinion, but never pressures me if I'm feeling uncertain. I learn more about my teeth and how they affect the rest of my body/health each visit. read more

I've been coming to see Dr. Jay for about a year now and he is hands down the best dentist I've ever had. The office staff is always super kind and his assistant Liz did an amazing job with my cleaning and x-rays. The prices are incredibly affordable which is shocking since the clinic itself is very upscale and luxurious. If you're thinking of switching dentists, definitely do it! read more

Fantastic and friendly service. Super happy with Dr. Jay and the level of care he and his team consistently deliver. I've been a patient for about three years and couldn't be happier! read more

Dr Chui., is a very thoughtful and caring dentist who really goes the extra mile to ensure you're well taken care of. He did all the necessary exams and check ups on me, but also helped walk me through how to help with my TMJ. Super recommend him. Oh, and he's located in a very local downtown SF area. read more

Chris Chui, DDS - Sleep Specialists Near Me - San Francisco, California

SF Dental Wellness has been good to me. Came in for a general cleaning... Jasmine at the front desk has always been pretty pleasant with explaining what to expect, insurance verifications and making sure i was scheduled for future appointments. Dr Jay in doing a general cleaning found some other issues i needed to take care of so needless to say i was visiting the office rather frequently. He's been professional, cool and as gentle as can be at all times. I would definitely recommend this dental office for your dental hygiene. The staff as well has been pretty friendly and knowledgeable when needed. Overall i give them a 10... read more

Always happy with my visit here! Doctors and front desk here are always super helpful. I like how they listen to any concerns I have and are not aggressive in recommending procedures. read more

Been a patient of Dr. Chui for more than 5 years now and I can say that I have been very impressed and satisfied with the treatment care that I get. All the people that works in his office are very considerate and explain very well the treatment plan. They care so much about what you feel and give suggestions on alternative routes if you feel uncomfortable. Over all I am very happy. read more

Stop your search now and book with Dr. Chui. He and his team are the absolute best you will find in the Bay! It took me months of research trying to find a dentist with a holistic knowledge of sleep apnea and bio-dentistry that was open to my functional health wishes and willing to work with my insurance. (this combination is very rare). Long story short, Dr. Chui was all that and more. Aside from being a leader in the field of sleep dentistry, TMJ, etc. he has an innate enthusiasm and curiousity that elevates his practice, and shows he loves his work. He conducts a thorough and personalized diagnosis (showed me multiple devices before recommending one) and delivers a precision solution for every one of his patients. He doesn't stop until things are truly right. After taking a number of measurements and photos of my mouth and posture, he used body kinesthetics to demonstrate how my lack of oxygen was not just affecting my sleep, but also limiting strength and movement in my neck and spine. He answered every question and took all of my speculations respectfully. Whereas most medical professionals are forced to move patients in and out quickly, Dr. Chui is patient, interested in communication and doesn't leave the appointment until he knows every thought has been answered. I also now see Dr. J in the practice for my other dental needs. Like Dr. Chui, he is thoughtful and curious and takes the time and interest to do exceptional work. He has performed some deep root cleaning which was completely painless, going a step beyond with a laser treatment. I have consulted with him on a couple of medical issues when I was trying to figure out if there was a dental component and he was extremely collaborative and helpful. Lastly a shout out to Miguel, who is the most compassionate and learned assistant to Dr Chui and Jasmine at the front desk who always has a smile and makes things easy. This practice sincerely cares about each other and their patients. I'm very grateful that I found them and know that you will get the care you need too. read more

Dr Chui and Dr Kwon are fantastic! Dr kwon was extremely patient and made sure I was comfortable throughout a procedure that I was pretty nervous about. He did an excellent job. Overall, I am so happy and highly recommend! read more

I was a patient of Dr. Mieger for over 15 years before she sold her practice to Dr. Chui. Dr. Mieger was the best dentist I had ever been to so I had high hopes that Dr. Chui could fill her shoes. He didn't even come close to filling the small toe area. Both my husband and I were patients there and received the worst dental care and some very unscrupulous billing practices while we there (up until 2019). He recommended a new style biteguard for me and the office manager gave me the pricing, which was barely covered by my insurance. Months later, they called to tell me that the pricing info that was given to me was incorrect and that the office manager was mistake (and no longer there), and that I had to pay an additional couple of hundred dollars. That along with having issues with the fillings he did, I decided he was not the dentist for me. Now fast forward almost 4 years and the reason I'm writing this review. I received a bill in the mail (mind you, this is the first bill I had received from them since 2019) for a balance due of over $900 dating back to the services from March and April of 2019!! WTF?? I called the billing department and they said that they had recently done an audit of their billing records and found they didn't charge me enough for their services back then. I'm sorry but WHAT??? I have Never heard of anything like this before. It's completely shady and you better believe that this review is being posted everywhere it needs to be posted as well as with the BBB. This is completely unacceptable. Stay far, far away from this practice and save yourself a lot of frustration. read more

This dental office is morally such a bad place. I wish all the customers who had awful experiences and got unfairly mischarged could come together and get this unethical place shut down. They automatically made the appointment for me without my consent, ignored my multiple cancellation requests, and sent bills multiple times even after they agreed to cancel the bill by saying "booking the appointment without a customer's consent is due to their IT system issue." However, another bill was sent. Then they called and threatened me to take down the negative but honest Google review I left. They said they wouldn't cancel the bill if I didn't take down the bad Google review... How can a doctor's office that treats patients for a living can operate in such a heartless way? Please please stay away at all costs, so you don't receive the bills for the appointments you never made, and please report to the police if you have an unfair and unethical experience with this office. By reading the review, looks like many patients have! read more

Great TMJ care! Has made a huge difference in eliminating my jaw pain and related issues

I went to Dr. Chui with TMJ and sleep apnea, conditions which were causing me difficulty in my life. My TMJ had flared up for many months, causing me headaches, and nothing I did helped it, including seeing another well-respected TMJ dentist. I was also concerned about my newly diagnosed sleep apnea, because that can cause health problems. Dr. Chui spent his first visit with me thoroughly going through my health and dental history, and he examined my jaw and reviewed the sleep test that diagnosed my sleep apnea. He recommended a treatment for each condition. He was very nice and approachable, and I immediately felt comfortable with him. After being treated by Dr. Chui for both conditions, my TMJ has greatly improved, and my headaches are gone. Now that I wear the orthotic he designed, I no longer have sleep apnea either. The latest sleep test I took a few weeks ago is now normal! I live down the Peninsula, and it was worth the drive to come to the city to be treated by him. He has a friendly staff, too. If I could give him more than five stars, I would Highest recommendation. read more

Doctors are very friendly and accommodating. Also never had any issues with scheduling or billing. Front desk staff can use text to communicate which is great plus. read more

Dr Chris Chui changed my life! My jaw feels so much better. I am no longer in constant pain. The office staff is so helpful and nice! 10/10

Big thank you to Dr. Chui and his team. Everyone was so helpful and efficient. Dr. Chui was super quick with my tooth extraction and provided me with great advice and instructions. I loved seeing their new technology, they did PRF insertion that helped with post op pain and inflammation. read more

Dr. Chui has been great - he's very patient and provides a comprehensive explanation for any procedure he's recommending, and as he does it. He takes care to minimize discomfort during the procedure, and he doesn't aggressively push treatment. It feels like he is truly looking out for the patient's best interest, and he is very knowledgeable. The office is also very clean, and the front desk is both friendly and great about providing estimates prior to work being done. I have a follow up procedure upcoming, but am so far very happy with having found this doctor in the area. read more

Started coming here for cleanings after I moved up to SF recently. Awesome practice which I've recommended to a couple friends already. I also came here for an Invisalign consultation, and instead of the typical spiel, Dr. Chui gave me a much more comprehensive exam. In the end, he ended up actually not recommending Invisalign and instead came up with an alternative long term plan for me. He easily could've just farmed me out for the fee, but it's clear he cares more about his patients' care. read more

They use high quality materials and are very straight forward about what if anything is needed. Dr. Chui will take the time to explain his decisions as well, so you may understand the process if interested as well as what goes into the cost. read more

Staff is kind and communicative, cleaning services and treatments are always efficient and straightforward. Best dentist experience I've had thus far. read more

I have had great experience here. I got my teeth cleaning for the first time with Dr. Jay and he has addressed my TMJ issue. I am thinking about getting the TMJ therapy in the near figure because of the expertise here. In addition, the office stuff are always helpful and nice. I will keep on coming back here for my dental care in the long term. read more

Dr. Jay was highly attentive and professional. It was a great experience! Would highly recommend!

I gave Dr. Chui a chance cause I've heard lots of great things about him. I've had many procedures done from him that i neglected such as getting my wisdom teeth taken out, getting a crown and also some extractions so I can get braces. He got me prepared for invisalign which i thought id never have. He referred me to orthodontist Amanda Chang and i couldnt be happier. His network is also great and everytime i go in the office it's a good atmosphere, customer service is good despite that there's always a new face i have to reintroduce myself too. But forever thankful for his knowledge and skills. read more

Very friendly staff! Swift and efficient services. Very clear in communication. As someone prone to anxiety and apprehensive to going to visits, I'm happy about the experience there. Everyone was great and helpful. Look forward to coming back for my follow ups. read more

My experience at SF Dental Wellness surpassed expectations. I have extreme anxiety when it comes to dental work/ dental offices but the staff and doctors here made me feel completely at ease. I met with Dr. Kwon for my routine check up and he was so meticulous and talked through my treatment plan in great detail. Side note, his demeanor is extremely gentle and really helped with my nerves. I've used a night guard for about 7 years so after my examination Dr. Kwon suggested that I meet with Dr. Chui for a TMJ checkup. THIS TRULY TRANSFORMED MY LIFE. Dr. Chui is a MAGICIAN!! He took the time to thoroughly understand my concerns and provided a tailored treatment plan for my tmj. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I HAD TMJ!! I have 100% better quality sleep and so much more energy throughout the day. I'm excited to see further results!! Both Dr. Kwon and Dr. Chui are extremely genuine and this was reflected in their approach to patient care. ALSO, the front desk staff - Carole, Jocelyn, and James contributed to the positive atmosphere, greeting me with warmth and ensuring a comfortable experience. I drive all the way from San Mateo for this office!! read more

Very nice doctor, knowledgeable, flexible, did not even feel anything- so gental hands.
