There comes a time after moving to a new hood that you have to get settled. For me, this means picking a dentist. Luckily, I live in the Mish where there is a plethora of dental options all on the same block!
Mission Street’s Dental Dam: This block on Mission between 20th and 21st houses dozens of dentists and more than one place to give you cavities (I’m looking at you La Quinta!) Should I pick Gentle Dental? Maybe Frank H. Chung? It’s so hard to decide. To me, dentistry is about aesthetics, so I have narrowed it down to two options. Alejandro Arce, D.D.S. and the M.J. Bilafer Dental Corporation.
I'm on the fence about this one.
This dentist looks pretty legit.
Each of these places seem to cater to different crowds in the Mish: A.A. to the tagged up Mission bar bathroom aesthetic and M.J. Corp. to the colorful, modern, corporate graphic designer style. Which Mish smile should I choose? I’m still torn!

She’s on 17th, not your block of choice, but I go here and she’s great:

I like how Dr. Terry sings along to her R&B music while she works on your teeth. I wish she’d drug me up more though.

+1 for Carlos at the aforementioned MJ Bilafer, I’ve been going for a couple years. He’s totally nice, very professional and the most gentle dentist I’ve ever been to. Everyone in that office seems very nice.

This is a trick question! No one will be able afford Dental care if Glenn Beck has his way. Wake up, Amerikkka! Let’s protest this at 24th st. BART 7pm tonight, dudes. Can someone bring a loudspeaker? I’ll bring my iPod touch for tunes.

Wonder if any ladies out there in the Mish still use the Dental Dam?
