Seeking Pediatric Dentist Recommendations who take Medi-Cal
Hello!
I am looking for a pediatric dentist who takes Medi-Cal in the Oakland/Berkeley/Alameda area for a 9 year old.
Thanks for your help with this!

La Clinica Dental on Telegraph in Oakland takes Medi-Cal.
My 7yo and I both go to the Lifelong Dental Clinic in Berkeley, and they accept MediCal. Quality can be hit or miss, but there are some good dentists who have passed through there during their careers. My son and I have both recently seen Dr. Ho, and he has a fantastic, calm demeanor. I would recommend trying to request him. My son has also seen Dr. Hussein, who is friendly and thorough. The dentist that my son had an awful time with no longer works at Lifelong, thank goodness.
