About
Mazzetti & Mazzetti is a dental office at 1131 Mission Road in South San Francisco, on the stretch of Mission that runs past the BART station and Orange Memorial Park toward Colma. Ciara Rivas is the contact on record. Compiled from public filings and directory records, this listing is pending the owner's confirmation, and the practice's own website was not reachable when it was checked, so call before making the trip.
Typical dental care
- Exams, cleanings and x-rays on a six-month cycle, the routine work that fills most of a general dentist's day.
- Fillings, crowns and bridges to repair decayed or broken teeth.
- Root canal treatment when the nerve is involved, or a referral to a specialist for difficult cases.
- Extractions, including wisdom teeth in straightforward cases.
- Dentures and partials, and care for children alongside their parents in a family practice.
Directory sites describe this as a family dentistry office with two dentists sharing the practice name, which is what the name itself suggests. Whether cosmetic work, implants or orthodontics are offered in-house is not something a directory can tell you; ask.
Making an appointment
Call to confirm the office is taking new patients and which insurance plans it accepts, since dental plans in San Mateo County vary between PPO and HMO networks and many offices take only some. Bring your insurance card, a list of medications and any recent x-rays from a previous dentist to save a repeat. For anything beyond a cleaning, ask for a written treatment plan with the procedure codes and what your plan is expected to cover, and ask whether payment arrangements exist for larger work. Expect the first visit to take longer than a routine one.
North County neighbours
The office serves South San Francisco first, then San Bruno, Daly City, Colma, Brisbane, Millbrae and Pacifica, the northern tier of San Mateo County, and residents of San Francisco's southern neighbourhoods who prefer a short drive down Mission Road to a downtown practice. The South San Francisco BART station is within walking distance.
The phone number is 650-588-1501. The chamber will pass the listing to the practice to confirm or correct on request.
Services
Typical for this type of businessRoutine check-ups on a six-month cycle with a hygienist cleaning, periodic x-rays and a screening for gum disease and oral cancer, the base of general dental care.
Repair of decayed, cracked or missing teeth with tooth-coloured fillings, crowns made from impressions or scans, and fixed bridges anchored to neighbouring teeth.
Treatment of an infected or inflamed tooth nerve to save the tooth, followed by a crown; complex cases are often referred to an endodontist nearby.

Common questions
Typical for this type of businessHow do I check a dentist's licence in California?
Search the Dental Board of California licence lookup on the Department of Consumer Affairs site by name. It shows the licence status, expiry date and any disciplinary history.
Does the office take my dental insurance?
Ask before booking. Offices take specific PPO and HMO networks, and being out of network changes what you pay. Have your plan name and member number ready when you call.
What should I expect at a first visit?
A longer appointment with a full exam, x-rays unless recent ones are transferred, a cleaning if time allows and a treatment plan if anything needs work. Bring your medication list and previous records.
Can I get a written treatment plan and cost estimate?
Most offices provide one for anything beyond a cleaning, listing procedure codes and the expected insurance share. Ask for it before agreeing to work, and ask whether payment plans are available for larger treatment.
Before you hire
- Look up the dentist's licence on the Dental Board of California lookup.
- Confirm the office accepts your insurance network and is taking new patients.
- Ask for a written treatment plan with procedure codes and your expected share before major work.
- Bring recent x-rays from a previous dentist to avoid repeating them.
- Call ahead: the practice's website was unreachable when this listing was compiled.
