Dr. Eric Citron has been practicing dentistry since 1985 and is a graduate of the University of Southern California School of Dentistry. He attends numerous continuing education classes each year to learn about the latest advances in dentistry. His goal is to raise your oral health to a state of excellence and then to have you maintain that condition through good home care and routine maintenance. He is a member of the Berkeley Dental Society, the California Dental Association, and the American Dental Association.
Dr. Citron is also a 1981 alumnus of UC Berkeley and is emotionally invested in Cal athletics. In his free time you will find him running, gardening, watching TV and movies, listening to music, pontificating on current events and politics, cooking, enjoying food & wine, or just hanging out with his wife, two sons and daughter.
Chloe has been assisting Dr. Citron for eighteen years. In addition to providing an extra pair of hands during dental procedures or taking x-rays, Chloe is resposible for monitoring OSHA's blood-borne pathogens standard, and infection control. She also keeps our dental supply shelves stocked and current. When called upon, Chloe's voice may also be heard answering the telephone.
Chloe was raised in Oakland and still resides in the neighborhood she grew up in. She is very involved with the Native American community and Aztec culture and dance. Often you will find Chloe cheering for her daughter's high school volleyball team.

After having a lifetime of cosmetic dental issues, due to fluorosis, The dentist in this clinic fixed it with a new treatment, really happy with the result. Staff was also very welcoming. Recommend.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was a first time visit with a broken crown. They fit me in to their busy schedule. The staff members were great and Dr. Citron was very kind and thorough with his explanations. I will definitely come back and recommend this practice to anyone who is looking for a dentist.

Dr Citron was recommended to me by another dentist who changed professions. Several MDs I know go to him and I think I've been seeing him for over a decade. He is astonishingly kind and practical and gentle although he looks like a football player. He doesn't do razzle dazzle or have a 3D printer for crowns and only recently got a dental hygienist and part time partner. Yeah, old school private practice who doesn't gouge you. He gets Cal students, he gets Alta Bates staff, he gets all kinds. The office staff is small, it was good ole Sonja and Chloe for a long time. He is just plain reasonable. I feel like I'm seeing a brother or uncle. "Well, you want a filling or shall I file it down or you want to wait it out?". What can you say to someone like that but thanks, I appreciate you, I'll be back.

Great listener, efficient, and genuinely helpful without any judgement. Remembered me even after 5 years! No upsells or skirting around, just great, personal service.

I've had the pleasure of being Dr. Citron's patient for a very long time. I've always been so pleased with everyone's professionalism, kindness and thoroughness. I feel very lucky to have them as my dental team and hope to carry on the tradition for my son. Dr. Citron, Chloe and Sonja are the BEST.
