Avalon Dental
Established in 1998, Avalon Dental in San Ramon is a family-owned, independent practice dedicated to providing unhurried, personalized care for patients of all ages. Led by Dr. Cliff Broschinsky, who has been practicing since 1989, the clinic combines decades of experience with a philosophy that prioritizes patient comfort, transparency, and long-term health over corporate efficiency. As a family tradition, many patients have stayed with Dr. Broschinsky from their first childhood visits to bringing in their own grandchildren.
We believe that dental anxiety often stems from uncertainty. That’s why every appointment begins with a conversation about your concerns and a clear explanation of our findings using digital imaging. You will see your own x-rays and intraoral photos on screen, understand exactly what we are looking at, and receive honest recommendations without jargon or pressure. Not every finding requires immediate treatment; we explain when monitoring is appropriate versus when prompt care is needed, ensuring you are always in control of your treatment plan.
Our practice is equipped with modern technology designed to make visits more comfortable, accurate, and faster. We utilize digital x-rays with significantly lower radiation, digital scanning for precise impressions without gagging, and diode lasers for enhanced gum disease treatment with less bleeding and soreness. From routine cleanings and composite fillings to cosmetic services like Invisalign and whitening, we offer comprehensive care tailored to your individual needs.
We accept most major PPO insurance plans, including Delta Dental, Cigna, and Aetna, and verify your benefits before your visit. For those without insurance, we offer a straightforward Membership Plan that covers preventive care and provides discounts on other treatments, with no deductibles or annual maximums. Whether you need emergency care, pediatric dentistry, or a regular check-up, Avalon Dental is your trusted partner for healthy smiles in the Tri-Valley area.

Fantastic experience: Dr B is great! They treat you like family. Dr B’s teeth cleanings are the best! I have sensitive teeth and he always takes that into consideration. Thank you Avalon Dental team!
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough great things about Avalon Dental! I was in between cleanings from my own dentist when I made an appointment with Avalon and I’m now seriously considering joining. First of all, Shawn did a great job advising and suggesting dental hygiene techniques while cleaning my teeth thoroughly. Not only did he give me a great ideas but he put me at ease before Dr B came in and finished the exam with expert advice. They are experts at what they do!
Daniel, thank you so much for your review! It was such a pleasure to have you in our office and we can only hope to see you again!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! All the staff is friendly and relaxed. Dr. B takes time to analyze everything. The new state of the art stuff is great! This is a great dental place!
Fantastic experience: Dr. B is honestly one of the best dental experiences I’ve had. He’s incredibly skilled, but what really stands out is how fun and easy he is to talk to, he makes the whole visit feel relaxed instead of stressful. He has such a great personality, and I love that he plays the piano we ended up bonding over music since I play the violin, which made the experience even more personal and memorable. If you’re looking for a dentist who is not only excellent at what he does but also genuinely enjoyable to be around, Dr. B is the one. Highly recommend!
This is so kind of you to say! I am so glad you found Dr. B to be a gentle and skilled dentist for you. See you again soon!
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Avalon! Going to see Cliff is like visiting a really good friend that just happens to be an AMAZING dentist!
Positive experience: I recently visited Avalon Dental for an Invisalign consultation and was really impressed from start to finish. Scheduling was easy, and the scanning process was quick and efficient. Dr. B and his staff were wonderful — thorough in explaining exactly what’s happening with my teeth and what to expect. Highly recommend!
I am so glad we were able to help as needed! Talk to you soon!
Fantastic experience: My hygienist Seon and Dr. Broshinsky, both of them were very patient-friendly and professional. I had my teeth cleaned up on March 17. Seon was very good in listening and responding to my questions. No reservation at all to recommend these two dental professionals.
Thank you so much for your kind review!

Fantastic experience: Dr.B has been my goto guy for a decade. Wonderful work and flexible solutions.
We are so thankful to have you as a patient!
Fantastic experience: I’ve neglected my teeth for a long time, partly due to my own mistakes and partly because of negative experiences with dentists in the past. But the team at Avalon has completely changed my perspective. Their hospitality, professionalism, and genuine care made me actually enjoy my visit. They not only cleaned my teeth better than I ever imagined, but they also referred me to the proper specialists when needed. I have sensitive teeth, and they took their time to ensure the entire cleaning process was completely painless. Their gentle touch and attentiveness made me feel comfortable the whole time. They truly listen to their patients and make an effort to create the best possible experience, which is something I’ve never experienced before. A special thanks to Dr. B and my dental hygienist (I’m sorry I forgot your name!) for taking such great care of me. At 30 years old, this is by far the best dental experience I’ve had since middle school. I genuinely feel happy to smile again and motivated to stay on top of my dental hygiene.
I am so glad we were able to make you feel cared for and comfortable. See you soon!

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience going to see Dr B. I had not been to see him since 2012, but I decided I had to have my teeth checked out and scheduled a visit. He is an excellent dentist and he has updated technology that wasn't available when I saw him 13 years ago. I was nervous about having my teeth cleaned, but he did a thorough job and my gums are healthy again and don't bleed when I brush my teeth. I thought my gums would be sore afterwards, but they weren't sore and my teeth are white again. I highly recommend Dr. B because he is an excellent dentist!
Fantastic experience: The Dentist and staff are always very welcoming and treat you like family. Dr. B is descriptive with his plan of action to address any problem areas before and during the procedures. Comfortable environment and modern practice.
Fantastic experience: Cliff is an amazing dentist. And a really great human. I’ve been a patient for over 15 years.

Fantastic experience: I chose Avalon Dental because of the positive review. I'm happy with my first visit. Everyone is really friendly and professional. A very comfortable environment. Everything is on schedule, no long wait. Well design office; cleaning, x-ray, and exam in the same room. It helps you overcome your dental anxiety when relaxing on the chair. Unlike most dental offices, you need to walk to a different place to get an x-ray.

She explained several different services in detail that they offer. I appreciated being educated. I was convinced that I should schedule an appointment to meet with Dr. B . I made that appointment and will review Dr. B later! Karen W
Fantastic experience: My husband and I have been patients of Dr. B’s for close to 20 yrs! We actually moved from San Ramon to Brentwood and continued to make the commute. Eighteen years later and we’ve moved again and still have no plans to change dentists. Dr. B is always gentle and let’s you know what he’s doing with each procedure. I have terrible TMJ and both he and the dental assistants have been very accommodating. All of the staff at Avalon Dental is friendly and helpful! I depend on reviews so felt compelled to share how happy we are with Dr. B!

Fantastic experience: Excellent work and phenomenal service is very personalized. I have visited for cleanings, Invisalign treatment and major dental work. I am very impressed with this practice and even after moving out of California I prefer to treat with Avalon Dental. I recently visited for a cleaning and informed Dr. Broschinsky and his staff that my teeth and gums were becoming sensitive. My teeth were cleaned but not before the appropriate amount of numbing gel was used so I did not experience any discomfort.
Fantastic experience: Dr. B and his team are truly top notch! They promote healthy habits and their rates are within reason. Many of their patients are fellow dentists which says a lot. I highly recommend this practice!
Fantastic experience: Dr B is awesome! Always optimistic and very professional! The stuff is very organized and caring! Lots of love❤️
