Meet Dr. Vasanthan

Triple Board Certified Periodontist and Dental Implantologist with expertise in Advanced Implantology.

Hi, I am Dr. Ash Vasanthan. I am a triple Diplomate with Board certifications from the American Academy of Periodontology, American Board of Oral Implantology and the International Congress of Oral Implantology. I am also a Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and International college of Dentists. I served as a full time faculty member at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) School of Dentistry, teaching periodontics and serving as the director of the Implantology course for 5 years. I have placed over a five thousand dental implants through my career of over 20 years and also taught dentists on how to place dental implants. My typical day at work involves placing dental implants, performing gum grafts and bone grafting procedures under IV sedation.
 
My wife is a dentist and practices in the Roseville area; we have 2 children, a boy headed to college and and a girl in high school. When I’m not involved in patient care, I am a busy dad taking care of the family and volunteering my time for Organized Dentistry.

I have been invited to speak to my peers by American Academy of Periodontology and continue to speak regularly at National and International meetings. I previously served as the President of the Sacramento District Dental Society and currently serve as a Delegate to the California Dental Association.
