    Peer Recommendation 1:

    A contemporary office and a friendly staff and doctor, all in a convenient location. All this is just a bonus. The main factor I would use in choosing a dentist Is the quality of his work.. Dr. Steve Byun is the dentist to all of my family in the Bay Area. He even did cosmetic work on my brother before I became a dentist. I recommend Dr. Byun to anyone looking for their next great dentist.

    He's the best, the whole office is a joy. You never have to wait. In and out on time and that is important during a busy work day. I hadn't been to the dentist in many years after a bad experience and procrastination. I was so relieved to get back on track and that was no doubt to Dr. Byun's professionalism and easy going nature.

    Patient Review 3:

    Dr. Byun and the entire team have always been pleasant to visit. I've never had a bad experience and all of my concerns or requests are addressed.

    The location is ideal if you work in the financial district. The facilities are clean and you can see/feel the thoughtful approach that they've taken to ensure the patient's comfort during visits (i.e. massage chairs, t.v.'s).

    If you're looking for a knowledgable, professional, warm dental group with better than reasonable prices, check out Dr. Byun's practice. I've referred him to work colleagues who have become disgruntled with their dentists (often someone they've been with for years) over quality of the facilities, equipment, procedures, expertise and price.

    I'm definitely not an advertisement but I like this DDS and team quite a bit!

    Treatment Length with Dr. Byun: 2 years.

    I had a very good experience at Dr. Byun's office. I was overdue for a visit and a co-worked reccommended Dr. Byun. The staff is extremely friend and professional. I was greeted with a smile and everyone was very calm. I tend to get very anxious about dentist appointments and it really was helpful that every step of the appointment was explained to me so that I always knew what was coming next.

    Dr. Byun filled three cavities for me. The process was relatively quick and painless. I would give Dr. Byun my highest recommendation.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Byun: 6 months.

    Frances at the Front Desk and Carmen one of the Dental Hygenists are GREAT! They are friendly and accomodating.

    Dr. Byun demonstrates concern for his patients. He referred me to a specialist and after my visit with the specialist, Dr. Byum called me at home to see how I was doing.

    He is thorough and always keeps the entire dental process in mind. He helped me plan out all of the work that I want done in a way that is manageble for both my scehdule and my bank account.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Byun: 2 years.

    Efficient and Professional. Dentist was really nice as well as the staff.

    I came in for cleaning and a check up. After the first appointment when I had my cleaning done and xrays taken I went in for the second visit to fill one cavity I had. I have a thing about needles so I asked that he not give me a shot. He was a bit reluctant at first but went ahead anyway. It was over in less then 10 minutes and it was painless. I would use Dr. Byun again. He seemed very knowledgeable and confident.

    I've been a patient at Rincon Dental for about 10 years and started seeing Steve Byun a few years ago when he came into the practice. He is very complete with his exams and takes time to chat which is a plus. Steve did some great work on two veneers in the front of my mouth - excellent results.

    Unlike a lot of other doctor/dentists I've been to, Dr. Byun takes the time to explain everything involved in your procedure before doing so. Really fast, professional, courteous service, and the rest of his staff is super nice and extremely competent as well.

    Also, it doesn't hurt that he's in a great location if you work downtown in SF - literally a block away from my office.

    I am the type of person who is NOT impressed with "bells, whistles, and fluff". Dr. Byun makes a great effort to provide a little fluff and comfort. However, what really impresses me about Dr. Byun is his knowledge, expertise, and professionalism. If there is a problem or pain, he and his staff fix the problem. I have no problems with my teeth, thanks to Dr. Byun and his staff. Their preventative efforts are the best. They prevent problems before they happen. They make me feel good from start to finish! The prices are very competitive as well.

    I was new to the area and asked a coworker for a recommendation... Dr. Byon was it.

    Everyone in the office was SO nice and friendly. I do not like any medical/dental work and I left totally at ease.

    Dr. Byon was fast, efficient and painless!

    I would highly recommend him to everyone!

    I'm new to the area and chose Dr. Byun because of all of the excellent reviews he has on this site. My choice was not mistaken. Dr. Byung is an excellent dentist: clean, professional and trustworthy. During my treatment I eased into the massage chair and closed my eyes while he worked. I felt comfortable and relaxed -- concepts not often associated with the experience of having drills in your mouth -- the entire time. I left the office smiling.

    Parking tip: The parking at the Rincon Center is outrageously expensive; park instead in one of the metered spaces on the Embarcadero.

    Excellent service. Francis the receptionist and scheduler is very helpful, and the rest of the staff is very professional as well. They have TVs and chair massagers in all the rooms and seem to make an extra effort to make sure you are comfortable. I received treatment and needed a follow up appointment, and they got me back in right away and took care of the problem. Highly recommended.

    Patient Review 21:

    As a child, I was systematically tortured by my dentist. He was the type that used a jackhammer to test for cavities. Strangely enough, I shied away from dentists as a result - it became a downward spiral. Small animals started living in my mouth...

    During my adult years, I've had a few dentists who were OK - the science is definitely improving. And then, after several years in the UK (not as bad on the dental front as commonly believed), I returned to SF and looked for a dentist downtown. Rincon Dental seemed like an OK place...but what level of torture would THEY employ?

    The good news is - these people are sooooo comforting. Treat me like a friend, not an annuity. Yes, we should all floss more, and for the first time, I want to floss, if only to show these people that what they say matters. I want them to be MY friends.

    These people really get it - they know how traumatized some people might be, and yet, after a few visits, you WILL NOT BE. You have my word.

    Patient Review 22:

    I can't say enough great things about Dr. Byun and his practice. Dr. Byun is extremely skilled and thorough, is always friendly and considerate and does his utmost to understand what I, as the patient, want rather than making assumptions. He helps the patient make decisions on treatment options based on all factors, from expected outcome to out-of-pocket cost. His work on a front crown of mine is outstanding. He calls to check up a day or two after certain treatments to make sure the patient is comfortable. I've had to move around a lot for school and work and I've never had a dentist that made me feel this much at ease.

    The front desk staff and hygienists are also very good at what they do. They are incredibly helpful and make the patient feel comfortable during the entire visit, walking the patient through billing issues and answering any questions about billing or procedures.

    The facilities are comfortable, with television, music and optional massage pads on the chairs.

    Although the costs are a tad higher than average (meaning I pay a bit more out-of-pocket), the level of treatment and care is more than worth it in this case.
