Ocean Endodontics, serving Glen Park

Glen Park keeps a village feel around Chenery and Diamond streets, with Glen Canyon Park at its back and a BART station at its center. From Glen Park, Ocean Endodontics is reached along Ocean Avenue, which begins just south of the neighborhood near Balboa Park and runs west to our office at 19th Avenue.

Glen Park patients often come to us through their general dentist, and you are also welcome to book directly; no dentist referral is required. Whatever brings you in, root canal therapy, retreatment of an older root canal, endodontic microsurgery, or diagnosis of pain that is hard to pin down, your dentist receives detailed notes and images after treatment and you return to them for the final restoration.

By transit, take BART one stop south to Balboa Park Station, or ride the J Church to Balboa Park, and transfer to the K Ingleside, which runs west along Ocean Avenue past City College to Junipero Serra and Ocean, near our building. By car, take I-280 south to the Ocean Avenue exit and follow Ocean Avenue west. Parking is free in our lot through the building breezeway.

  • Rated 5 out of 5

    I just got back from having a root canal with Dr. Leong. I swear she is the best dentist. Her bedside manner is amazing. Super friendly and extremely knowledgeable in her field. I was experiencing puffy gums and we talked about my prescriptions, and she explained the connection! I was comfortable during my first visit. Today, Dr. Leong walked me through every step of my root canal as she was doing it. She told me what I would be feeling/hearing next, and exactly where in the process she was. Honestly, probably one of the easiest dental procedures I've had done. I will definitely be going back to Dr Leong again if I ever need another root canal. 10/10 recommend. Thank you sweet Dr. Leong!!

    Dr. Kelly Kimiko Leong is a superb endodontist. On a few hours' notice, she performed an emergency root canal procedure. It was virtually painless because Dr. Leong took the time to completely anesthetize the affected area, including the effective application of a topical anesthetic so the injections were barely noticeable. Each part of the procedure was carefully explained. She took multiple X-rays during the surgery to ensure that she continued to target the exact locations in the affected tooth. Dr. Leong is a perfectionist and continuously checked her work to make sure it met her high standards. Feeling great the following day. The best dental care I have ever received.

    I had a cracked tooth that needed quick attention due to the pain I was in. Dr. Leong saw me the same day and fixed it beautifully. She and her staff were friendly, efficient, and handled the pain management perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the results.
