About

Dr. Fiorella Potesta-Knoll is a top-rated dentist and prosthodontist in the San Francisco, CA, region, offering patients a broad array of state-of-the-art treatment options to help them enjoy optimal oral health and function, including preventive, restorative, cosmetic and rehabilitative procedures.

Dr. Potesta-Knoll has extensive experience treating patients of all ages and performing complex oral procedures.

What are the top 3 treatments that you focus on?

All my work is of course my focus; however, I find I do many cases that involve implant reconstruction, crowns, and smile design with anterior crowns.

What are you proud of in your practice?

My staff and our patients. Our staff works together as a true team to provide our patients with the best care possible. You will always see us with a smile on our faces, bringing positivity into our practice. We also have wonderful patients, many that have been with us for years, that have become not only our patients but our friends. This is what we are proudest of- our great relationship with our patients and our team.

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?

I enjoy treating all cases, however I find my favorite cases involve implants and improving the esthetics of front teeth. I love to see the smiles of my patients when the cases are completed. It brings me so much joy that I can improve their confidence with my work, and they leave the office happier than when they walked in.

    They did my xrays and cleaning. No pain at all, they’re really good at what they do. Nice office, Patty was helpful on the process to check what my insurance would cover. They also have a really nice view of SF and Golden Gate :) 10/10 would recommend.

    Such a friendly office. I haven’t been to the dentist in 10 years, but they were so warm and welcoming (I was nervous lol). They were also very informative and supportive in helping me learn better hygiene practices. The office also has great views of the bay, which is a plus!

    I had a really great experience at the office. Everyone had a great demeanour and it was a very positive experience from checking in, through the exam, xrays, and cleaning! The office is small but nice with great views.

    After having experiences with other dentists in the area that felt like dealing with the stereotypical insurance salesman (scammers), it was absolutely refreshing to experience Dr. Fiorella. I felt she genuinely cared about my health and wellness as a human being and wasn't just trying to upsell me on services I didn't need. Super friendly and personable and able to accommodate last minute changes. Happy to have found a new regular dentist :)

    Fiorella and everyone on her team were so kind and I did not feel judged in any way. She took care of me, made a plan that worked with my timeline and budget. I was told I was part of their family now and she was here for me and it was so sweet and sincere. Karen had amazing bedside manner and cleaned my teeth like a wizard! So grateful I found this team.

    This dentist office is really incredible. First off, all anxiety will be quelled by the incredible view of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. The cleaning is very thorough, and Dr. P isn't a dentist that is trying to do needless work just to rack up a bill. She is a great dentist and really was a pleasure to visit!

    Dr. Fiorella is one of the most kind and through dentists I have ever had. I have extreme anxiety going to the dentist and not once did her or her office make me feel unwelcomed and I left feelinh good about coming back for additional work. They work directly with my insurance so I don't have to deal with the back and forth and the view from her office is fantastic. I highly recommended checking her office out!
