Dr. Shantia Kazemiesfeh, DDS

I had gum graft surgery with Dr. Esfeh. When it comes to this type of surgery, you need not only a periodontist but one who is extremely skilled with the details of the surgery; a periodontist "artist" if I can use the term. I have has one other gum graft from a previous doctor which was covered under my dental plan. While somewhat less expensive the r results of the first surgery, which took about 40 minutes, did thicken the gum tissue but covered none of the gum recession, leaving the roots still vulnerable to hot/cold sensitivity and aesthetically less pleasing. Dr. Esfeh, working with two assistants took over two hours to carefully and with extreme precision cover all exposed recession. The results truly exceeded expectations and I am not a person easily impressed. Additional Comments: 1) Initial meeting was where the entire procedure was explained in great detail and written down so you would remember it when you get home. 2) Scheduling is not immediate, ~ 5 months

From start to finish, Dr. Kazemi and her staff were wonderful to work with, made everything clear, and the procedure was as smooth as possible. They followed up afterwards with genuine care and are a fantastic team that I highly recommend.

I had my gum drafting done by Dr. Kazemi and it went very well. She showed me the difference before and after surgery and I could appreciate her work after seeing this.

I needed to do something about my receding gums. Dr. Kazemi did a wonderful job- the graft healed beautifully and I now can smile again!

I had gum grafting done by Dr. Kazemi. I’ve had it done several times before and this was by far the best experience. Very little bleeding, swelling, or pain at all. She is a skilled surgeon. She uses a minimally invasive technique with better results I believe. She was out of network for me and significantly pricier than competitors but while friends who had gum grafting done by other periodontists in the area had a 4-6 week recovery with limitations on food and drink mine lasted a week at most.

I had a great experience, and was particularly impressed that Dr. Kazemi followed up via text message several times after the procedure to ensure everything was going well. Highly recommend.

I am totally satisfied with Dr. Kazemi’s gum graft procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Kazemi! John C

The doctor was fast, professional and explained everything before and during the procedure. She also checked in with me via text several times after the procedure. I would totally recommend her to family and friends.

I had gum-graft surgery done by Dr Kazemi. She was very professional and highly competent, and provided good follow-up via text, including before and after pictures. Her work was very high quality: both the origin and destination graft sites healed up well. Unfortunately, the pre-op communication from the MenloSmiles office was rushed and poorly managed, and their office also mis-billed me, making the work seem even more expensive! (An outlier: their dental care itself is wonderful.) We also had a bit of trouble with scheduling, but eventually managed to work things out. But the bottom line is that the gum surgery outcome was very good, and Dr Kazemi herself was great.

I had a recent gum graft on one of my veneers, and the other on my molar (all on left), due to gum recession and sensitivity. Dr Kazemi explained my options, including risks, benefits and long-term outcomes, prior to the procedure and was receptive to my support person being part of the conversation. I had also heard Dr. Kazemi was detailed oriented and "amazing", but when I saw the results of my gum graft, I was astounded by my results. Given the relatively small area of recession on my frontal teeth, I was astounded by how PERFECT my gums matched my right side. I also felt better at the site of my gum graft within 2-3 days; I definitely felt the extra protection of my teeth within days. 100% highly recommend Dr. Kazemi for her patient-centered, thorough, detail-oriented, and excellent results.

Dr. Kazemi sets the bar very high in her field of expertise with her genuine care and professionalism towards all her patients. During and throughout my surgery, she unfailing made sure I was okay. Post surgery, her follow-ups or check-ins through text messages showed authentic care. I will 1000% highly recommend Dr. Kazemi to all my family, friends, colleagues, and everyone who is looking for the perfect Periodontist/Dentist. Thank you, Dr. Kazemi for doing such a phenomenal job taking care of me. I am very grateful for you.

I had two gum grafts done. I didn't know what to expect but I had no pain and a quick recovery.

I was quite apprehensive about my gum surgery. However, thanks to Dr. Kazemi’s skill, knowledge, and post op follow up, the procedure went very well and resulted in a very good outcome. I found her to be very professional and caring, sensitive to my anxieties and concerns. I really appreciated her frequent post op follow ups via text.

I needed oral surgery on both sides of my mouth in order to rebuild my gums using tissue from the roof of my mouth. Dr. Kazemi performed the surgery. Before the procedure, she explained my surgery options, told me the expectations for both the surgery and recovery, and answered all of my questions thoughtfully. During the surgery, she checked in with me often, was responsive to my needs, and did a great job of explaining each step to her team (and to me). She gave clear instructions both in verbal and written form for my recovery care and checked in on me several times during my recovery. I have to have a future surgery of the same kind in a few months, and I’m so pleased that Dr. Kazemi will be my surgeon!

Dr. K did both my lower and upper graft procedure and it turned out great. She is extremely professional and I love the way she treats and talks with her assistants, says please and thank you and creates a calming atmosphere. She did fantastic work and also took plenty of pictures to show the before and after. I would highly recommend her.

I have always heard wonderful things about Dr.K so I decided to see semi for myself and recommend my dad to see Dr.K. The results were amazing! I could not have asked for better. Dr. K took the time to walk us through the procedure and answer any and all questions we had. She also checked on my father after which was very sweet of her. We are very grateful that we decided to go through with the surgery to cover my dad’s exposed roots and love the results! Thank you Dr. K!!

Dr. Kazemi is so wonderful. She was so helpful during the consultation for my gum graft surgery and when it came around to the actual surgery, I felt very comfortable. Seeing the before and after photos was quite amazing because you can see her results. Highly recommend anyone to see her for any dental needs.

Dr. Kazemi is attentive and professional. I had my wisdom teeth removed, and it was the fastest and most painless experience I've ever had. I would highly recommend her.

I decided to get an implant after I was told my tooth needed to be extracted. Dr.Kazemi worked with my dentist and made my experience very nice as she was very attentive and knew exactly what she was doing. I didn’t feel anything besides the initial numbing prior to the procedure and she made sure that I was okay throughout the whole surgery. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family. Thank you so much

Dr. Kazemi explained the issue with gums, the need for surgery, what could be achieved, and also, IMPORTANTLY, what could NOT be achieved. This helped me, as I was familiar only with dental cleaning, and not dental surgery. She also provided material via web, email, and text. She was very straightforward and tried her best to answer my questions, and was very honest. She was very willing to follow up outside business hours (since she was very busy) and answer my additional questions. She explained some of the after-care features as well. As I understand it, the surgery went very well. I understand that she is a highly qualified expert. I should add that I have been going to Dr. Zahra Hakim's office for decades, and the fact that she chose Dr. Kazemi as a partner provides additional corroboration. She is firm and direct but most helpful. This enables a patient to develop trust in her. I recommend her highly.
