Although to tell you the truth, I could have easily fallen asleep in that chair-one of the most comfortable chairs on the planet, I am sure. I have been a patient since 2008. I have moved around the country a lot for work - 9 states- and Dr. Benjamin and her team are the best that I have found in the U.S. I left the Bay Area in 2013 but Dr. Benjamin allowed me to continue to be a patient and I've traveled back twice a year for dental care except during Covid. I know that there are a lot of great people-and dentists- out there but Marina Tooth Fairy is right for me. I trust Dr. Benjamin. If you are looking for a wonderful team that you can trust and a place where you will feel comfortable, I strongly recommend making an appointment. I am confident that you won't want to go anywhere else once you have been there.

My son's had regular dental care and luckily, great teeth- no cavities or braces- so he had a clean bill of health after a cleaning and exam at Marina Grins Dental. Taking a closer look at some of the reviews though, I'm nervous about a practice so eager to drill if they feel a stain could be the start of a cavity. Erm.. that feels a wee bit gung-ho. On the other hand, my son did have a positive experience, they were very polite and professional - and as one Yelper pointed out, great music! Practice is centrally located in the Marina.

When I…read moredisclosed that I have cancer, am already getting many PET/CT and other scans, and asked to defer dental X‑rays I had less than two years ago, the dentist first told me the ADA requires them every 18 months, even though ADA/FDA guidelines say low‑risk adults typically only need bitewing X‑rays every 24-36 months. After I pointed this out and explained I've had no cavities or issues in about 10 years, they still refused to treat me at all unless I agreed to new X‑rays, which felt like rigid policy and billable imaging were being prioritized over individualized care for a cancer patient with high radiation exposure.

Dr. Josh and the entire team are kind, knowledgeable, and make every visit such a great experience. They have plenty of appointment availability, and I never felt stressed trying to schedule or reschedule.

Plus, being able to watch TV during procedures makes everything so much more comfortable! Rinse is such a wonderful practice that I started recommending it to all my friends, and now most of them go there too.
