Union City Dental Care Clinic

Welcome to the University of the Pacific Dental Care Center in Union City. We are the satellite clinic of the University of the Pacific Dental School in San Francisco.

This clinic began serving the community over 20 years ago. Our purpose for having a satellite clinic was not only to give the students an opportunity to work in a private office setting, but also to extend our services and discounts to the East Bay. Treatment is provided by a rotation of senior students from the main campus in San Francisco. They are overseen by three senior resident dentists and a clinic director, all of whom are graduates of University of the Pacific School of Dentistry.

Hours of Operation

All patients are seen by appointment only.

Mon 1:15-5:00 PM
Tues to Friday - 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:15 to 5:00 PM (closed for lunch)
Sat, Sun, and Holidays - closed

How to become a patient

  1. Call 510-489-5200 and make an appointment for an initial visit.
  2. We begin by taking necessary x-rays and diagnosing full treatment plans.
  3. Specialist referrals can be accommodated at our main campus in San Francisco.

Fees and Payment Plans

Pacific School of Dentistry offers comprehensive, quality dental care at reasonable prices. Our fees are 30 - 40% less than the average private dental office in the Bay Area. We accept most dental insurance plans, including Denti-Cal, Medi-Cal and private insurance, and cash, check, VISA and Mastercard. Flexible payment options are available for those who are eligible and may be discussed with one of our patient/financial coordinators.
