Dr. Shantia Kazemi, DDS

Periodontics isn’t the kind of specialty most people think about—until they need it. Gum disease, dental implants, bone grafting; these aren’t routine cleanings or fillings, but they’re the kind of precise, technical work that keeps everything else in your mouth stable. Dr. Shantia Kazemi, DDS operates out of a suite on Forest Avenue, just off the stretch where San Jose’s midtown energy starts to quiet into residential pockets. The address—2025 Forest Ave #3—puts it near the kind of low-key storefronts that locals rely on without much fanfare.

Booking a consultation here means calling (408) 294-6624; no online scheduling gimmicks, just a direct line for appointments. If you’re mapping it out for the first time, the building sits back slightly from the street—check the directions to avoid circling the block. Some things don’t need embellishment; this is one of them.
