Such a easy, friendly and efficient appointment. We really felt comfortable after coming and see that Dr. Han took the time with our son to make it easier as he really never likes the dentist exp. 10/10!!!
Adriana Broullon
Dr. Han is the best pediatric dentist in the Bay Area. Kind, gentle, patient and extremely knowledgable. Dr. Han takes the time needed with each patient to get to know them and make them feel at ease. My children look forward to going to the dentist! Even after having treatments for cavities and a tooth extraction after an accident! His office is extremely high tech and everything is state of the art. Dr. Han takes his craft seriously and genuinely cares about the health and well being of the children he works with. I have recommended him to multiple families and they all tell me how amazing he is and how grateful they are their children get to go to him.
Cindy Zhan
Dr. Han and his team are very nice and professional. Dr. Han spent time to answer my questions and instructed me about the information of my kids’s teeth.The dental environment is very cleaned. I am lucky to transfer my kids to see such a professional dentist. And I feel safe to have kids checked up in this dental clinic.
Courtney White
Our family has had an excellent experience with Dr. Han and everyone at his office. It’s very kid friendly. He is super thorough, and (magically) gets my 2 year old to lie still for an exam and cleaning.
Julia Cline
Dr. Han and his team are above and beyond! They make the kids feel so comfortable, the office is very inviting and he does an amazing job! Thank you for caring so much.
Donna Marie Ponferrada Murray
I can't say enough good things about Dr. James Han and his team! From the moment we walked in, the office felt welcoming and fun, which immediately put my child at ease. Dr. Han has a fantastic way with kids—kind, patient, and always explaining things in a way that's easy for both kids and parents to understand. The care they provided was thorough, gentle, and thoughtful. They use state-of-the-art equipment and offer great advice for maintaining healthy teeth in between visits. What truly stands out is how much they genuinely care about their young patients' comfort and health. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist who goes above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable and stress-free, Dr. James Han is the best! My husband and I highly recommend Han Pediatric Dentistry!!
Charlie
Dr. Han is so patient and nice, very good with the kiddos. I'm surprised that my kid is not crying too much for his 1st visit!
Michelle Hammel
Great facility and staff, well equipped for kids. Our 2 year old strolls in happily and enjoys Bluey in the waiting room, fun songs while Dr. Han cleans and counts his teeth, and stickers from the friendly office staff on his way out.
Ryan Schwartz
I normally don’t take the time to do these reviews. This was my very first visit with my daughter and I seriously was blown away. The office, the staff, and of course Dr. Han are absolutely amazing. Even if I was to move out of the city, I would commute to have my daughter continue to go to this office.
Chloe Gednov
We took our 16 month old here for his first dental appointment and it was a great experience! Friendly staff working the front desk and Dr Han is great! He was able to clean our son’s teeth and give us new parents explanations for all aspects of toddler dental care, all during a temper tantrum. He knows how to handle toddlers!
Amy Hazen
Dr. Han was great! He really took the time to get to know both me and my son during our first visit to his office, making us both feel comfortable, answering my many questions, and offering lots of very helpful advice. Thank you, Dr Han!
Annette Blum
Our experience with Dr. Han and his office was excellent. Everyone was friendly and very helpful (from booking the appointment to arrival to the exam itself) and my son and I both felt extremely comfortable throughout the appointment. We look forward to being patients for a long time!
Christine Kao
We love Dr. Han's office! My son had some pain in his mouth and Dr. Han's office was quick to schedule us in to take care of him. My kids love coming here.
Chrissy Brady-Smith
Dr. Han was so knowledgeable and helpful as he cleaned and examined my 10 month old’s teeth for his first dental appointment. Very pleased!
Kaela Beutler
By far the best experience we have ever had at a pediatric dentist!! Dr Han was incredible with our twin 18 month olds. He has a very calming presence, took his time and was so thorough. Even our more outgoing twin sat perfectly still for her teeth cleaning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist!! 10/10 recommend.
Marie Lee
Dr. Han is the best. My twin girls love going and are always primer patients with Dr. Han. He makes them so comfortable and ensures they get a good cleaning and check up.
Erin Gilmore
We went to Dr. Han for a second opinion on a tooth extraction for an impacted/dead tooth that our 2.5 year old son has. He was amazing! He spent about 30 minutes explaining all of our options and hearing our concerns. He made me feel much more comfortable about what we needed to do moving forward. And it was the first time my son didn't cry hysterically the entire time he was at the dentist, which was huge. Can't recommend him enough.
Janet Ran
Dr. Han is very patient. My son is difficult to take care of. My son likes it very much?All the staff are very enthusiastic ?️?️
Jenny Ta
Dr. Han is always full of knowledge and provides great tips for the kids. His analogies for keeping your teeth clean is quite comical and the kids loves it because they still talk about it at home. It sticks! :)
kierstin clickner
Dr.Han and his staff are always efficient, friendly and provdide thorough, gentle care.
WAI YING RACHEL CHAN
My son did two molars extraction with Dr. Han. This is our second visit and the first time it was my husband brought in my 11 years old & 6 years old. The first appointment was ok, my son just needed a cleaning. However, for my 6 years old daughter, I was suggested by Dr. Han for a general anesthesia for treating her cavities. Dr. Han did not give me a lot of options when I was suggesting a couple appointments treating cavities maybe one side at a time and, but I told making appointments with them is challenging. I respect his professionalism, but I still seek for 2nd opinion, I was able to look for another dentist who were welling to treat my daughter in a couple appointments for her cavities to avoid general anesthesia and also the quote from Dr. Han was around $4000, mind you I have two dental insurances. Finally, my daughter was treated, and everything is ok. I just moved on and didn't really think much about it. Fast forward for this last appointment, Dr. Han is a very serious dentist, without a friendly smile. He is very straight forward, and not too opened for discussion. I witnessed the whole procedure of my son two molar's extraction in the room., I was pretty disappointed the way he spoke to my son and it was always with authority and attitude. Unlike the other dentist we have worked with. Our appointment was at 4:15pm, and with two molars extraction, I was really concerned if my son would be able to have dinner. (sorry for being such a mum). I have brought it up to Dr. Han and he said it couple times saying he would be fine. I asked if we should do one side at a time and AGAIN, he said we should do it at all once since we were here already. Anyhow, my son was in pain right we got home, I gave him tylenol and he felt better but when dinner came, he could not eat at all. He just could not even he said he was hungry. I am sorry but I am the type of mum who really wants the kids to have at least 3 full meals a day and I know missing one wouldn't hurt but my point is, if I have had brought it up with Dr. Han, he should have a better knowledge and at least tell me maybe he wouldn't be able to eat solid food or maybe having hard time. I honestly feel like Dr. Han care less and he was not opened to my concern. I am sorry we will not be going back. Not to mention I have to take care of all the charges up front and they will do the claim for me after. God knows how long this will take and how much I will get back. They don't have the answer. But this one star isn't anything to do with charges, it's the professionalism I expected, and it certainly did not meet my standard.

A 5-Star rating is insufficient for Han Pediatric Dentistry. Dr. Han and team take pediatric dental care to the next level with their deep caring for their patients and custom approach for the wee ones in the 4 years we've been coming here. They are welcoming, educating, professional, and efficient. Our kids will definitely be growing up with Dr. Han has their dentist for the foreseeable future.
Queencie P
Dr Han & his staff are great with kids & the place is set up perfectly for them. At the end my kids ask if they can go to the dentist again! Haha.
Erin & Scott Armstrong
We have been bringing our son to Dr. Han for four years, since our son was about 18mos old. Our experience with Dr. Han has been great. He’s very good with our son. He explains what he’s going to do before he begins, and then he tells our son what he’s doing at each step. He’s well versed in what allergens might be in dental products, and he reconfirms my son’s allergies at each visit. We once had to see Dr. Han for a dental emergency after hours when our son’s two front teeth luxated inward from falling at the playground. Dr. Han kept amazingly calm while my son and I were a bit freaked out, and he fixed our son’s teeth up very nicely. The staff are courteous and professional. The waiting area is kid friendly with some fun toys to look at. We’d highly recommend Dr. Han to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist.
Alan Chong
My daughter needed a filling. To try to avoid a meltdown, I set expectations and let her know that it would hurt to fix her tooth. Dr. Han was so friendly and gentle. "Daddy, it didn't hurt." Great, Dr. Han made me a liar.
Jason Wang
I have brought my daughter in for 3 visits. 2 visits are for a routine check up visit. 1 for when she fell and impacted her teeth. Dr. Han and staff is very knowledgeable regarding our insurance plan and has provided all relevant information regarding my daughter's teeth care. My daughter was very uncomfortable during one of the visits and Dr. Han and staff were very patient and assisted with calming my daughter down. Dr. Han has shown a lot of experience with working with children that needs to be comforted before the child is able to relax and be examined. Dr. Han has come highly recommended by my own dentist and by a family friend who also brings their own children to see Dr. Han. I am very happy with the care that is being provided to my daughter and am happy to continue seeing Dr. Han for my daughter's care.

1. It took a year more to get a new patient appointment. (long waitlist doesn’t mean it’s good!) 2. It was all good when we were at the waiting area. We were asked to pay full onsite “before” seeing the doctor and it was a bit weird.(now I know why they asked because no one will pay after what’s next!) 3. Dr. Han did his parents education part on how to clean children teeth, but he lost his voice and honestly I could barely heard what he says. 4. The female assistant was not nice in the room. TV was there but didn’t play cartoons at all. I tried to use my mobile to distract my child but was banned by the dentist. 5. Dr. Han was surely in a bad mood. He used the tooth brush to brush my 2 year old teething baby like scrubbing a burnt pot! Made her mouth full of blood!!! It was our first dental appointment, me and my husband were shocked to see how he treated our baby. My baby was in great pain, scared, crying and screaming and ended up having Burst capillaries on both eyes area because of the terrible pains(both how Dr. Han grabbed her head and brushed her) . She couldn’t stop the scared, screaming and terrified feeling even when I (the FTM) hold her in arms again! This is surely NOT how a Pediatric dentist should treat a baby on her first appointment!! 6. Doctor had to toss the tooth brush because FULL OF BLOOD! 7. My baby is scared to brushing (still!) and was scared to see tooth brush for months! 8. Dentist only used toothpaste to brush (scrubbed) her teeth with putting something like ointment/ gel on her teeth at the end. No polishing did. We can tell this is a very straight dentist with high expectations to his patients. He didn’t like our baby drink milk at night or using pacifier. But our daughter is a very insecure and high demand child, it takes time to get her off these for sure. He should respect us with patience and love as all babies are different. On top of that, this doesn’t mean the dentist can put his anger on a baby when he was not feeling well or had a bad day. If he lost his voice, he should have a translator or take a day off. As an experienced pedi dentist, he should know kids will scream and cry when they are scared. It’s not our fault couldn’t hear his broken voice under his N95. Not risking us getting ill or hurting my child like that. It took me months on preparing her to get her first dental appointment by role playing at home. Everything was nice and she was excited to attend before this. What this dentist did ruined all my efforts. Even worse, he hurt our baby badly with shadow!!! 8. Clinic said they don’t carry our insurance plan(Delta) but can help us to get reimbursement. We have asked the insurance company and was told we should NEVER pay in advance especially when our insurance is valid. (And the clinic did check our eligibility in advance! We are no scammers nor bad credit.) The clinic can only bill us on credit and wait for the insurance company to pay them directly. They also asked for our social security number which we were not comfortable to give. We are good people with good credit and coverage, but they treated us like scammers even with all information provided. I know this may affect my child’s availability in this clinic again. My husband wants me to keep quiet but I do believe it is important to speck up what happened to my daughter, especially months passed but she is still suffering from the trauma. Every time she enter clinics now she is scared, especially when she needs to lying down even just for measuring her height. THIS BREAKS MY HEART, EVERY TIME!! I regret sending her to this dentist and full of guilt to her. I do worry her little soul’s future development after such a violence. This dentist has no heart to kids to me. He didn’t play nor introduced a dental visit to my child nicely. We do NOT recommend him for sure.
Brian Holliday
Always the best service from the entire staff. Dr.Han makes it super comfortable for my kid and explains in great details what is going to be happening.
Erica Johnston
We had our daughter's first dentist appointment and cleaning this week at nearly 3 years old. We had been told to get her started early and we kept putting it off. I am so grateful we found Dr. Han and his team. They explained everything, they were super patient, and took their time talking with us. Dr. Han spoke to our daughter as he went through the exam, explaining what he was going to do next, what he was seeing, etc. Dr. Han encourages an open line of communication and honesty. We truly felt like we entered into a partnership with him and his team to ensure our daughter has healthy teeth for life (without shame or guilt that we aren't doing everything perfect). We'll be back in 6 months for our next cleaning and I look forward to creating a healthy view of the dentist for our daughter and keeping her teeth healthy along the way.
Liz Lee
I was very please with how the dentist and the oral hygienist eased my 5 year old's fears after a failed visit to a non-pediatric dentist. My daughter actually enjoyed her visit!
JoshRach Kosin
Great place for a first dentist appointment, Dr. Han is so great with kids!
Kim Pham-Naimark
Dr. Han and his team are super caring, friendly and transparent. Appreciated that they use the water suction even for my 2yo's teeth cleaning and gave her a rubber mat to lay on. Love the location and convenient parking!
Audrey Murphy
Dr. Han and all of the staff are always so kind and professional. They do a fantastic job of making kids and parents alike feel at ease as well as thoroughly taken care of.
Evelyn Jones
Our daughter has been seeing Dr. Han since her first appointment when she was about eight months old. Dr. Han is excellent with children, he makes what could be a scary situation for a little one fun and lighthearted. He gives great instructions to parents who are figuring out how to take care of their tiny babies teeth. His office staff is very friendly and helpful. We are so glad he is our daughter’s dentist!
Liz Cong
Highly recommend Dr. Han!!’ Our 7 yr old son has been seeing Dr. Han since he was a toddler. He has special needs and Dr. Han and his staff made sincere efforts to know how they could accommodate us. He is very patient, understanding and has a calm demeanor. He eventually earned our son’s trust. The office staff have been helpful ensuring I get the needed documents for our flexible spending account and other insurance related needs.
Mina Chow
Dr. Han and his team continues to be amazing. My 7 yo daughter loves them! They are super kind, caring, and professional.
Toney Choi
Dr. Han gave very good care to my son. He explained in very good detail how to clean and care for my son teeth properly. He gave focus and personal care unlike other dentists who operate like a factory.
Monica Tamaru Jones
Great appointment with Dr. Han, who really takes the time to understand my kid and her limitations and works with us to get the most out our time. He was very good about following her lead on what she was comfortable with.
Rebecca Wilson
You can’t find a more patient, kind, thorough, thoughtful pediatric dentist than Dr. Han. My daughter is 4.5 years old and we’ve taken her to him since she was 2 years old. When my daughter had a traumatic fall and her tooth split open her bottom lip he advised us what to do (ER visit) and even called us to check up on us. He is the most caring dentist I’ve ever experienced. No need to look further for an OUTSTANDING dentist because you’ve found him! I’m so blessed that my daughter sees the best pediatric dentist in the city!
Tranyce Tran
Very grateful to have found Dr. Han for our kids. We have been with Dr Han for a couple of years and every visit has been very pleasant and informative. Office is cute and clean. Dr Han is friendly, knowledgeable and detail-oriented. Highly recommended!
Meryem Alaoui
We really appreciate the professionalism and efficiency of Doctor Han and his team . We are extremely satisfied with the work that he is doing with our 8 years old son. :-)
Crystal Carrillo
Doctor Han has always made our son feel comfortable during his dental visits. He explains what he's doing to both us as parents and to our son, which also brings ease to the visits. He also provides excellent dental education to keep our son free of cavities. The office & support staff is also top notch -- professional, kind, and welcoming. Finally, office staff and Dr. Han are prompt with responding to email & phone inquiries, which is important in maintaining patient trust and loyalty.
Amanda C
Visited Dr. Han for a new patient appt for my two year-old. Receptionist was very welcoming, nice, and efficient. Didn't have to wait long to see Dr. Han. Appreciated how thorough Dr. Han was in explaining the process and examination as well as his tips to help brush my child's teeth. My son usually gets a little timid, but felt very comfortable and was calm throughout the whole thing! Definitely will be coming back, thanks Dr. Han and team!
Maire McAtamney
Dr. Han and team are excellent! Dr. Han has such an easy way with children. He takes the time to explain what he is doing which immediately puts your child at ease. My children have been seeing Dr. Han for a few years now and they couldn’t be happier - each visit is such a positive experience.
lily alvarez
Dr Han has been an exceptional part of our daughter's dental health. He is proactive about his recommendations and makes our daughter feel comfortable during her visits. She enjoys going to the dentist. We learned early on that our daughter has more brittle and sensitive teeth, which means we have to be extra careful about the types of food she eats. Our daughter has been seeing Dr Han since she was 2 and she is now 6. At home, she feels empowered to take control of her own dental hygiene and does her best to choose the right foods to maintain clean and healthy teeth. His offices are always so clean. His staff is always so friendly. I also appreciate that all of his paperwork can be done digitally before we come to our visits.
Mai Uyen Le
Dr. Han and his staff are exceptionally thoughtful and professional. They show so much patience for timid little ones. Incredibly thankful for their care.
K O H
Fantastic experience. Very clean office. Dr. Han was great. My child loved the visit.
Jordan Paxhia Marion
Kind, patient staff across the board. They made the process seamless and were very communicative. My daughter was calm throughout the visit in spite of a rather rushed arrival. Highly recommend!
Emilie Hulwick
Dr. Han is very thorough. There’s never a wait and I like that he’s not distracted since he only has one family in the office at a time. The billing is also super clear and straight forward. Keep up the good work Dr. Han!
Jessica Greif
My son really looks forward to his visits with Dr. Han! Dr. Han always spends a lot of time explaining what he is doing and makes sure my son is in the loop. The office itself is great and very thoughtfully designed with lots of awesome kid friendly art. The entire team is wonderful and provides top notch, age appropriate care during each visit. I cannot recommend this practice enough!
Faina E
Best pediatric dentist in SF hands down!!!! He’s not only amazing with our kids but also a really great guy! He’s literally a child whisperer! :)
Sarah Press
Dr. Han was prompt, knowledgeable, and gentle while still being clear. I appreciated his guidance about what to do now vs work on vs wait and see, and especially appreciated his kindness and patience to my nervous toddler.
Kieran Farr
We love bringing our 2 kids (2yo and 6yo) to see Dr. Han! He and the staff do a great job helping them feel comfortable and welcomed before starting. They always take the time to explain what's going on in a way that both the parents and the kids can understand. We've tried a few dentists in the City and Dr. Han has been our favorite! Thanks!
Sarah Trott
Dr Han is a caring dentist who knows how to put children at ease during their check up. He is thorough in his approach. Highly recommended!
David Bong
Dr Han and team made my kids' first visit to their office such an easy one. From the moment we walked in they were all so friendly and aware of the kids being apprehensive as kids can be. The office decor and gentle attitude of the staff quickly made my kids feel better and more at home. The exams themselves were just as well done and so much less stressful than I thought they'd be. Dr Han himself was very informative and passionate about dental care which I appreciated. He knows how to handle a squirmy or worried kid. The silly songs and methods he uses to distract and calm kids were very effective. All in all a wonderful experience and I plan to stick with his office from here on out.
Katrina Sohriakoff
Dr. Han and his staff created a comfortable environment for my young son during his first checkup. As the parent, I found Dr. Han's approach to be warm and open - answering my questions, giving useful tips, and not lecturing. When we left, my toddler son exclaimed "He's a great dentist!".
Rosemary Li
Dr. Han was very professional and super good at dealing with kids. My kid was a bit nervous in the beginning but she stayed cooperative as Dr. Han talked to her. It was a great experience in general.
Derek Steer
Absolutely incredible experience. Dr. Han was very sensitive to my daughter's recent trauma and did an amazing job of making her feel comfortable and enjoy her first visit to the dentist. Would highly recommend to anyone, even (especially!) if you have an anxious child.
Rowena Mak Li
Dr. Han is the most patient and caring dentist. He takes the time to explain everything in details, and always does a great job fixing my daughters teeth. I would recommend everyone to see him. Thank you for always taking care of my daughters.
Cheryl Chow
Great experience! Dr. Han is always so personable and goes out of his way to make my daughter feel comfortable. Judith is also so patient and great. The staff at Dr. Han's office are very welcoming! Thank you!

Kaitlyn Hoffman
My preschooler and I always have a positive, empowering experience at Han Pediatric Dentistry! All of the staff are so nice. Everyone is very accommodating & professional. And best of all I feel like we're getting amazing care. Dr. Han is very patient, gentle, & thorough. I feel lucky to have found him bc my kid won't have traumatic dentist experiences like I did growing up.
sherry bastani
My daughter has been going to Dr. Han from the start and today she went in to get her first cavity filled and I must she could not have been in better hands. Dr. Han talked about what he was doing every step of the way and made sure she was comfortable, which I appreciated.
Yajun Wang
Highly recommend Dr Han cannot say enough good words. We have been with him for years, best pediatric dental care. Professional, precise, neat, responsive, really loves what he does.
Lidia Luong
It was a great experience for me and my son. This facility is practicing very safe COVID protocol so I was very appreciative of that. Dr. Han and everyone one staff was very friendly. The office is very kid friendly and inviting which made my son more comfortable in an "office-like" setting. Dr. Han was very informative and kind and knew how to handle my son's fear and in the end my son even said goodbye and was smiling as he left the office! All in all a great first time at the dentist for my son!
Julie Cheung
Dr. Han was very thorough and accommodating. My son had a toothache and he was able to assess the issue quickly. I'm he was able to provide honest feedback. Dr. Han and his team is also very responsive which is nice especially when your child is in pain and it feels so helpless.
Jennifer Lyons
We love Dr. Han and his staff. He is a rare human with incredible patience, knowledge and a kind, calming demeanor that puts his very special patients at ease.
SC Kwan
Daughter had a scooter accident and knocked her front teeth loose; ER doctor suggested seeing dentist for follow up. Left a message for Dr. Han at 1am (yes, at ER for over 6 hours), and was able to see him that afternoon. He was very thorough with the check up. But most of all, he made the experience so easy and comforting for my daughter.
R. Ng
Dr. Han is very thorough and kids friendly. He is patient and very thoughtful in all the details of his practice from the decor, the team work amongst the staff, scheduling, the details to safety protocols (especially in the past year with covid safety protocols), etc. Each visit goes very smoothly. He is up to date with latest info on pediatric dentistry. Excellent clinical skills. I completely trust him and his team for my child’s dental health.
Sofia Zhang
Very thoroughly screened for COVID which is very assuring. Everyone was kind and nice and my toddler didn’t even cry! Dr Han explained to us very patiently and in detail about what to expect and how to do things based on my daughter’s condition. What a great practice!
Lowen E Cattolico
Dr. Han & all the team members were great & made my toddler’s first time at the dentist go smoothly.
Meg MacFarland McGuigan
We’ve had 2 visits now with Dr. Han (at 1.5y and 2y) and both during Covid time. Dr. Han and everyone we’ve met working who works with him have been so friendly and accommodating. The office follows clearly outlined safety protocols, which is very important to us. It is truly a pediatric dental specialty practice - every step of the process, from the waiting area to the exam rooms and the exam/cleaning itself - was tailored to help little ones feel comfortable, safe, and cared for during the appointment. And Dr. Han seems genuinely invested in educating the kid and their grownup about healthy practices and oral hygiene.
taryn gifford dawson
Wonderful first dentist experience for our toddler! He loved Dr. Han and keeps talking about his visit.
Giulia Worner
Dr. Han is a wonderful pediatric Dentist. I have brought my son to see him twice now, the first time when he was 2.5 years old, and again now at 3.5. He is gentle and very sweet with my son, made him comfortable to be at the appointment- my son was scared leading up to the visit. He sang to him as he examined his teeth and connected with my son naturally. I thought his exam seemed really thorough as well as his education with us- we talked about diet, best option for sweets when we choose them, brushing etc. I felt he was a nice combination of conservative but not overly cautions leading to unnecessary procedures- a really important balance as a dentist I feel! The office is very clean and very well run. In terms of covid precautions it was very tightly run ship- we filled out a questionnaire at home for symptoms and again at the front door. Both our temps were taken and hand sanitizer was given to us. There were no other patients in the office and few staff. Everyone was wearing a mask and face shields and I noticed Dr. Han was very careful to sanitize his hands whenever he came into contact with my son if he touched other equipment. Overall I highly recommend him!
Josue Zapata
We had a great visit with Dr. Han, as always. We have a very sensitive 4y who does not exactly look forward to dentist visits, doctor's visits, etc and Dr. Han is amazing patient and gentle with her. We were the only ones in the office and the COVID protocols in place made us feel very safe. If he saw adults, we would both go see him, too, as Dr. Han is truly excellent in every way. He is great with kids, explains things clearly, takes his time, and I would highly recommend him!
Shirley Chan
My two girls have been following Dr. Han for at least 10 years now. Dr. Han is a great dentist with excellent skills and “bedside” manner. He’s very knowledgeable, approachable and friendly. The office staffs are all very nice and helpful.
Gretchen Tallon
Dr Han is very calming which helped my nervous kiddo. And, he took the time to make a note that my son loves The Beatles and had them playing in our exam room! I really appreciated that attention to detail and care for his patient.
Emily Howard
We love Dr. Han! He has been the best dentist with my son. Caring and compassionate staff! Extremely professional and respectful. I appreciate all the extra measures he and the staff have in place to keep the patients and staff safe during COVID.
Danielle Sharpnack
We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Han and his staff. They are patient, kind and know exactly to interact with children to make the experience pleasant and not scary. The staff thoroughly explained the treatment plan prior to the visit, and Dr. Han took the time to explain the findings and next steps after the visit. I appreciate the professionalism and courtesy of the staff, and the office decor is cute and inviting. We are very happy to have Dr. Han as our dentist.
Shadia Walsh
We had to cancel our last cleaning in March 2020. I couldn’t be more please with how the visit went today. All the forms were sent beforehand via text, the staff were very friendly, sanitized our hands prior to entry, temperature checks. But most of all my daughters 6 and 8 enjoyed going to the dentist and getting their teeth cleaned! They said they had a great experience. Staff was doing a deep clean after we left. Dr Han was extremely kind and informative as always. We’ll be back in 6 months! 6 months later: My husband took the girls in today. My older daughter is on track with a major overbite issue that was discussed almost three years ago. Had we not acted then and gone to one of the recommended orthos by Dr Han, my daughter would have had serious issues today. We are so grateful for the excellent care we get at Han Pediatric Dentistry!
Lana Jaber
Thank you so much to the receptionist for fitting my son in on the same day when he developed an infection. Care was amazing and Dr. Han reached out in the evening to check on his recovery. We are very grateful.
Chi Bui
My daughter loves going to see Dr Han, not only is his office super cool And comfy with Streaming on the ceiling, he is super nice and knowledgeable. He get kids!

Great experience taking my 18-month old to Dr. Han for his first dentist visit. In the intake questionnaire I mentioned that my son likes singing and Dr. Han actually sang during the oral exam! That really made me happy to see him go above and beyond to make my kid comfortable. He also did a great job explaining both the importance and the risks of using fluoride - I learned a lot!

Dr. Han is the best kids dentist! I've been to several and they all pale in comparison. You can tell he loves his work, and he is such a pleasure to interact with. My daughter looks forward to seeing him (amazing for a dentist I know, but it's true :-)
Leah Travers
Thank you, Dr. Han, you made my toddler feel safe and comfortable and taught me everything I need to know to care for his little teeth.

DR. HAN IS SO WONDERFUL WITH MY BOYS, SO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND HIM! THE BOYS ACTUALLY ENJOY GOING TO THE DENTIST, FOR REAL! WE DON'T EVEN LIVE IN THE CITY ANYMORE BUT STILL GO BACK IN TO SEE HIM. THE STAFF IS ALWAYS AMAZING AS WELL.

I selfishly want to keep this a hidden secret, for fear of not able to get an appointment easily. :) Dr Han is simply the best pediatric dentist out there, he is knowledgeable, patient, and always equipped us with new knowledge in providing more support to our kids with their dental hygiene. I feel lucky that I have found Dr Han. His staff is top notch too, they are friendly and efficient. Lastly you can go almost paperless at this dental office, all forms can be signed online, receipt can be emailed... Five stars all around!!

Jessica Beaman
Amazing experience at the dentist. Dr. Han takes excellent care of our son and did a great job from his first cleaning as a toddler. His staff is professional and respond to phone calls and emails in a timely manner. Would highly recommend!
Jenn Wilcox Thomas
We’ve had a great experience working with Dr. Han. Our 2.5 year old loves going to the dentist, and as parents we really appreciate his thoughtful, kind approach for our daughter.
Alicia Wong
Thanks to Dr. Han and his team, my 3 year old daughter actually looks forward to going to the dentist. Dr. Han makes the semiannual checkups fun and stress free with songs and TV monitors on the ceiling. I highly recommend Han Pediatric Dentistry :)
Aurora Hernandez
We simply love Dr. Han! He has passion for his work and it shows. Dr. Han is very knowledgeable and has the latest technology. He makes conversation with the patient and keeps the parent in the loop as well. ALL of his staff is very professional, kind, caring and always so accommodating! I’m sooo happy with the care my daughter receives every time we have an appointment. Plus the office is impeccable, super clean!!!

We love pediatric dentists in general for our kids but Dr Han is very personable, professional and takes the time to have a one on one conversation about each child’s teeth + care. I have 3 kids and have taken them a number of dentist from Daly City to several around SF. I recommend him to all my friends with kids and why wouldn’t I? Make an appt and you can see for yourself.
Scott Willis
This place is amazing! Dr Han is so good with my 4 year old son. I remember hating the dentist when I was little but my son loves it and can't wait to see the "Teeth Guy". Their Covid precautions are excellent and each room has an air purifier. I would highly recommend Dr Han to anyone looking for pediatric dentistry.
Angelica Garduno Fletes
Dr. Han has been great these last three years with my 4 year old. His team and him were extremely patient when my child was afraid and crying and I had to hold her down when she was 1-3 years old. But now that she’s almost 4 and understands more as to what is happening, the last two visits have been peaceful and my kid walks out excited with her new toothbrush and stickers! Everything is explained and recommendations on how to care for teeth are great. Looking forward to taking my second little one in the future. Going pre covid pandemic and now, the team is just as cautious as they were before with extra added health measures now. I appreciate their attention to detail and safety.
Emmet Murphy
Our sons had their very first appointment today with Dr. Han. We were really impressed with him in every way. He made ours sons feel at ease and provided very clear explanations of proper dental care for young children. We both left the appointment feeling very impressed and very happy that Dr. Han will be their dentist for several years to come!
Dana Wong
We've been seeing Dr. Han for a few years and have enjoyed every visit. He is an excellent dentist, gentle and humorous with the children, and a pleasure for parents to chat with.
Lisa Fairbrother
Dr. Han is the perfect pediatric dentist. I always recommend his office to all the parents. Friendly, knowledgeable, patient, efficient, modern - everything that a parent would want for their kid’s dentist.
Erica Kodiyan
Dr Han is terrific. He is pleasant, has a cheery office, focused on children's needs and skilled at working with kids. His office has the right kid-centric tools, fun games, and pleasant atmosphere. He is professional, collaborative and an amazing communicator. He is very dedicated to his profession, helpful to parents, and comfortable around children.
Sarah Reed
It was the first time I set up an appointment for my twin daughters with Dr Han for a Saturday. The office had to cancel because Dr. Han was sick that day. However they were VERY good with communication and accommodating us with another Saturday visit 2 weeks later. Upon entering the office everyone was so nice and my girls loved the waiting area. During our appointment Dr. Han was very though and kind. I really did appreciate him taking his time to get to know the girls. Overall I am beyond pleased at Dr. Han and his staff.
linda lin
Dr Han was referred by our family dentist for my 7 year old. My little one does not like dental care visits but he was not too worry for seeing Dr Han. He was very patient with my kid. Office staff are very friendly. Office is new and clean. Very convenient location the sunsets.
julie hennessey
We love Dr. Han and his staff! They are punctual, personable and professional. The extra effort they put into reducing patient traffic during visits to keep safe during the pandemic is greatly appreciated.
Peter van Vugt
Dr Han is fantastic. I would recommend him to anyone, without reservation.
shirley t
Extremely professional and kid friendly. Dr. Han was amazing to our two daughters who are 4 and 8. My 4 year old is extremely shy and was very nervous but Dr. Hans made her feel safe and she actually had fun getting her teeth checked and cleaned. In fact they came out smiling as we left! I definitely recommend Dr. Han to any family!
Sophia Chew
I have 7 years old and 5 years old twins. We have done some cavity treatments, filling, sealants and overall dental care. We are very happy with Dr. Han and I confidently recommend him to friends and family. He is really good with kids which is helpful for my anxious kid. And little shy ones are very comfortable with him. His office staffs are friendly and helpful and his practice is just the best I have ever experienced overall. I can actually trust him with my kids’ treatments without doubts. Haha yes I’m one of those patients who tries to be a doctor. But honestly so thankful for a great doctor!! ???????
Carol Grunberg
If you want the very best for your child, this is the dentist for you. Dr. Han is incredible. He's so good that even during a painful dental episode, he and his staff put my 2 year old son at ease. He is not a dentist. He's a caring, thorough and thoughtful Dental Magician. Handini! We were referred to Dr. Han after our son had a dental emergency. His was an unusual case and rather than treat the problem, Handini dug deeper and sought to understand the cause. He ran some tests, requested the results stat, then moved forward with treatment. His diligence is fantastic. Dr. Han also followed up via email to ensure our son was doing better. We used to go to a well known Pediatric dental practice in the Inner Sunset, they don't come close to the attention to detail and care that Dr. Han provides. I wish he treated adult patients, our entire family would switch. Our son is now five years old, our daughter is three. Dr. Han has been treating both for the past three years. The kids adore him. He's made them enjoy going to the dentist. Who needs the Elmo brushy brush song when you've got Dr. Han in your corner?! He's warm, comforting and caring. Dr. Han has taught the kids the importance of good dental hygiene in a fun and nurturing environment. We cherish him dearly. Dr. Han, the pediatric dental magician!
Wenjing Ou
First time visitor, and my kid never been to dentist before. Staff are welcoming, helpful and friendly. Cost is reasonable. Doctor is very professional, children friendly and put parents mind to ease. Definitely recommend!! :D
Tiffani Mah
I brought my 21 month old daughter to Dr Han twice now and each time, Dr Han has been very warm, friendly, and patient with my daughter. His front staff is very kind and the facility is very clean with tables, chairs and toys in the waiting area for the kids. Dr Han is genuine and cares about his patients. He is extremely knowledgeable and does a really great job explaining how to care for my daughter’s teeth and what to look out for. Highly recommend.
Tracy
We had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Han, I have to say. He is fine with my 12-year old, but he is very short tempered with my 5-year old. He screamed and yelled at my son when he couldn't stay still for his major teeth work (crown and fillings) which is not helping with an already terrified 5-year old. My son almost had a panic attack at his last visit. Dr. Han might be a good dentist in general, but I wouldn't recommend him as a good pediatric dentist, especially for younger children.
Karen Aguilar
My 5 year old was afraid of the dentist, bad experience. I brought him to Han's when he was 3 and from that day on he looks forward to going to the dentist. He isn't afraid any more, thank you! You're awesome Dr. Han!
Rick Pan
Dr.Han is a great dentist and person!! He is very respectful. And mostly importantly he is very patient in answering all my questions for my child and explaining the treament options without making me feel uncomfortable. Thank you.
Jolene Yee
Dr Han is great with my two boys, very kind to his staff and provides thorough dental care. We have been with him for 1 year so far and had two visits. He uses new X-ray equipment so the images are high quality instead of grainy, he is very thorough and does a complete oral exam including tongue and lymph nodes check, he is on time, answers any questions I have very thoroughly. I also appreciate how kind and respectful he is with his staff, which is one of the reasons we left our prior dentist. Only con is the location— it’s far for us but it’s only twice a year.
emily yee chinn
Dr. Han is hands down, absolutely top notch, THE BEST!!! He is super professional, smart, great with kids, great with parents, friendly, kind, generous with his time and the list goes on!! His office space is impeccably clean and super high tech, kid friendly and has ALL of the bells and whistles!! We are blessed to have found this hidden gem of a practice!! My hope is that Dr.Han will be my kids dentist until adulthood!! Also the staff is A+++ too!! Thank you Dr. Han!!
Cindy Hong
We had our first dentist appointment for our 3 year old daughter today. Dr. Han put her and us at ease immediately. I was pretty anxious prior to the visit and Dr. Han's calming bedside manner made the visit a pleasure. I highly recommend Dr. Han to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist!
Kelso Chan
Dr Han is awesome! So kind and patient and calming. I was shocked that my 2 year old let him poke around her mouth for as long as he did. He was also great about giving us tips and nutritional advice to avoid cavities I hadn’t thought about. He is absolutely worth the 30-min drove across town and I highly recommend him. May 2021 update - My child is now 5.5 years old and we still love seeing Dr Han. I wish he accepted adults! I appreciate the sound dental advice he’s given us over the years and his friendly way with kids. His office is clean, organized and has ceiling mounted TVs to keep the kids occupied during their cleanings. I recommend Dr Han to all of my friends. June 2022 update - Still the best pediatric dentist in SF! Dr. Han and his staff are warm, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to engage with. We learn something new at each visit and tips for kids apply to adults as well.
Jessica Callahan
I have been to several pediatric dentists in the city and Dr. Han is hands down the best. I took my four year old son to Dr. Han for several dental procedures and could not have been happier with the results. My son left each time happy and pain-free asking when he could come back next! . Dr Han is an incredible dentist but what makes him exceptional is his approach and bedside manner both with kids and adults. He is patient, kind, and calm. He carefully explains everything to his patients and their parents in a way that is appropriate and easy to understand. His work is impeccable (coming from a long line of dentists I am incredibly picky) and he does everything in his power to make sure his patients are comfortable (TVs with a Netflix account, coins to get toys from a vending machine, stickers, rooms decorated with kids posters, and I could go on). Simply put - Dr. Han is amazing!
Sonia Hwang Morsella
Super clean and friendly office with fun toys and tv playing for kids. Both my husband and I were a little nervous about taking our 3.5 year old for her first check up, but the experience could not have been more pleasant for us and our daughter. Dr. Han is very knowledgeable and professional. He put our daughter at ease right away. We got very good tips on brushing and flossing. He took time to explain our questions. Dental assistant was gentle and our daughter didn’t mind getting cleaning and fluoride treatment at all. She loved the fun gifts she got, hour glass, cute toothbrush, toothpaste, stickers, and gold coin to get a small toy. We live in Mission Bay and took our daughter all the way to Sunset since Dr. Han came highly recommend from local moms group. We are so happy to have found a great dentist for our daughter.
Morgan Day
Dr. Han is an exceptional pediatric dentist. I am a dental student and met him when he was teaching at UCSF- he is part-time faculty there- and was so impressed with his professionalism and commitment to excellent dental care that I begged him to let me observe his work in his own office. In shadowing his office, I was impressed with his friendly staff and spacious, comfortable office. His patients genuinely love to visit him and the little ones blow him kisses. ? What most impressed me was his commitment to educating both his patients and parents on how to prevent cavities in the first place. I am a dental student and I learned things I had never learned in dental school from him! I am so thankful I have a doctor I can confidently refer my younger patients to. They will be in great hands.
Jennifer Lai
Dr. Han has been amazing. He is wonderful with my 2 year old. He is super attentive and spends the time to educate his patients on how to keep their teeth healthy. I've learned a lot from him during my visits with him. His staff is very nice and accommodating as well.
Joann Tawasha
Dr. Han is a excellent dentist that really cares about the safety and effectiveness of treatment. He has been seeing my 3 and 5 year old girls, glad to say they look forward to going to see him. We never feel rushed, Dr. Han takes the time to explain everything and answer our questions.The office is very kid friendly. Front office staff and dental assistants are very welcoming and knowledgeable. Glad we found Dr. Han and highly recommend him.
Brian Hansen
Took my 15 month old son to see Dr. Han for his first dentist checkup, and could not have been happier. The offices are very clean, cutely decorated, and full of toys/TVs to entertain children. Dr. Han is friendly, great with kids, and most importantly seems to genuinely care. This was our son’s first visit to the dentist and Dr. Han helped him settle down and get used to the environment first, they even play brushed a puppet’s teeth together! He was also very thorough about explaining to us as new parents brushing tips and what foods/drinks were appropriate for our little guy. Would highly recommend Dr. Han to anyone looking for a qualified and caring dentist for their children.
Mike Rubinshteyn
I took my daughter for her first appointment a few weeks ago and Dr. Han made her feel extremely comfortable. She usually is not a huge fan of males (except me of course) but Dr. Han kind demeanor quickly made her feel at ease and she was smiling and laughing the whole time. Dr. Han showed us how to properly clean her teeth and gave her a sticker and small toy to go. He also explained to us which toothpaste we should be using and how to make the experience quick and enjoyable for our daughter . The office is kid friendly and extremely immaculate. The staff is really nice and the overall experience was nothing I ever experienced as a kid going to the dentist. I would highly recommend this office and Dr. Han!
Lina M
Fantastic new dental office!! Really wish I could be a patient here (but i'm too old)!! Review is for my younger brother, who was seen by Dr. Han. He had major issues with his wisdom teeth impaction because they were really close to the nerve root. Dr. Han explained the risks of this situation, and that it would be a very high risk surgery in terms of potential nerve damage. He recommended an experienced oral surgery specialist who knew how to deal specifically with these special situations. In the wrong hands, my baby brother could have risked serious permanent damage! Thank goodness for Dr. Han's keen assessment and excellent connections to the right people. My family found Dr. Han to be very professional, courteous, thorough, meticulous, and importantly, genuinely caring. We are so happy to have found him and can't wait to rave about him to all our friends and family! Ease of scheduling: no problems. really love that he has Saturday availability. Facilities: brand spanking new, very spacious, private rooms. fancy looking gadgets, TVs, equipment. very kid friendly. (I'm tired of going to those places with curtains and shared rooms!) Walls were decorated with awesome posters: Frozen, Star Wars, Marvel, My Little Ponies- super kid friendly. Location: This new pediatric dental office is located right off 19th ave & Noriega. street parking. Highly recommend!

Wonderful service and care! Took my 8 yo daughter there first time and was very pleased with everything. The experience was exceptional, excellent, and different from other dental places. The big difference was that the dentist did Not rush through the appointment. He got to know our case, chatted, carefully examined and cleaned the teeth while letting mom look and listen to all his explanations. He answered all my questions thoroughly as well. I’m happy and my daughter was also very happy with the service.
