Dr. Epitacio M. Sison Jr, DMD

Daly City’s Gellert Boulevard stretches through a mix of mid-century commercial strips and residential pockets, where practical businesses cater to the neighborhood’s everyday needs. Among them is Dr. Epitacio M. Sison Jr, DMD, a dental practice tucked into a suite at 2085 Gellert Blvd #9. The office sits in a no-frills plaza, the kind that houses the kind of services people rely on without much fanfare—dentistry being one of them. Routine cleanings, fillings, and extractions are the bread and butter here, the sort of care that keeps things running smoothly for patients who prefer straightforward visits over spa-like experiences. Crowns and bridges get handled as well, for those who need more than just a checkup. Calling ahead at (650) 878-3171 is the quickest way to sort out an appointment, whether it’s for a persistent toothache or just the twice-yearly maintenance that dentists always recommend.

Dentists in this part of the Peninsula tend to serve a steady stream of locals who’ve been coming for years, along with newcomers who move into the area and need a reliable place for oral care. The practice doesn’t advertise itself as anything other than what it is: a dental office handling the essentials. For anyone mapping out their first visit, the directions place it just off the main drag, where parking is a matter of circling the lot like everywhere else in Daly City. No grand promises, no gimmicks—just the standard fare of exams, X-rays, and the occasional lecture about flossing.
