Suite 202, 155, North Jackson Avenue, Alum Rock, San Jose, California

Closed · Opens today at 9 AM

Documented periodontics profile in San Jose, pairing Periodontal Care and Periodontal Surgery across 24 services on file.

Read full description

<p>Smiles of San Jose is at suite 202, 155 North Jackson Avenue in San Jose's Alum Rock neighbourhood — a location in East San Jose accessible from the surrounding Alum Rock, Mayfair, and Berryessa communities. Alum Rock is one of San Jose's most densely populated residential neighbourhoods, with a predominantly working-class and Latino community that values accessible and comprehensive dental care close to home.</p> <p>Maxillofacial surgery, oral pathology, and periodontal surgery together mark this North Jackson Avenue practice as one with a clinical scope substantially beyond standard general dentistry. Oral pathology — the assessment and biopsy of abnormal oral tissue — requires a practitioner trained to distinguish benign mucosal variants from suspicious lesions requiring histopathological workup. Maxillofacial surgery covers the range from alveolar bone procedures and cyst enucleation through complex jaw pathology. Periodontal surgery covers osseous surgery, flap procedures, and crown lengthening for advanced periodontal disease that has progressed beyond maintenance-level management.</p> <p>Bone grafting and dental implants are listed alongside the surgical scope — the full alveolar bone management and implant restoration sequence for tooth replacement. In the Alum Rock community, where access to specialist surgical dental care has historically been constrained by geography and insurance limitations, a general practice with in-house maxillofacial surgery and periodontal surgery capability reduces the specialist referral barrier that would otherwise delay or prevent treatment for patients who need surgical care.</p> <p>TMJ/TMD treatment addresses the jaw dysfunction and myofascial pain that presents consistently in East San Jose's working-population demographic. Braces, Invisalign, and orthodontics cover the alignment correction range. Dentures, crown and bridge restorations, and cosmetic dentistry complete the prosthetic and restorative scope.</p> <p>For Alum Rock, East San Jose, and Berryessa patients on the North Jackson Avenue corridor who want a general practice with maxillofacial surgery, oral pathology, periodontal surgery, and bone grafting in-house, the suite 202 address at 155 North Jackson Avenue provides that clinical depth in the East San Jose community.</p>

How to Choose a Dentist in San Jose - California

Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

If you want routine or family care

Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

If urgency matters

Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

If affordability matters most

Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
  • Are you taking new patients right now?
  • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
  • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
EditorialUpdated July 15, 2026Independently reviewed

Periodontic specialists in San Jose practice in an entirely private-practice market — Santa Clara County has no dental school whose periodontic residency programme provides the specialist training pipeline or the clinic access tier that UCSF provides in San Francisco and that serves the Bay Area’s most medically and academically complex periodontal patient cases. The AAP Diplomate periodontists who trained at UCSF, Pacific, or out-of-state periodontic residencies and chose the South Bay’s tech professional patient market have built the specialist periodontic practice community that serves the Santa Clara County referral demand from the General Dentists whose three-wall pocket or furcation involvement case exceeds the general practice periodontal scope. The Indian-American professional community’s elevated Type 2 diabetes prevalence — the HbA1c that compounds Stage III periodontitis in the fifty-year-old Cisco director whose general dentist referred the surgical case — creates the diabetes-periodontitis co-management demand that the San Jose periodontist addresses with the endocrinologist co-management protocol that the tech corridor medical infrastructure supports. Peri-implantitis management is an increasingly significant portion of the San Jose periodontist’s case mix as the implant investment of the high-income tech professional patient community creates the peri-implant disease presentations that the generalist refers to the AAP Diplomate for surgical management.

Smyleee evaluated San Jose periodontic specialists on AAP Diplomate or private periodontic residency training credentials, full surgical scope including osseous surgery, guided bone regeneration, connective tissue and free gingival grafting, and peri-implantitis surgical management, implant placement capability and CBCT guided surgery, diabetes comorbidity co-management protocol for the Indian-American patient community, Denti-Cal billing for covered periodontal services, Vietnamese and Spanish-language specialist consultation, and clinical outcome consistency in bone level and soft tissue stability. These ten San Jose practices are the periodontists the data confirmed as most reliably delivering specialist-capable periodontal care to Silicon Valley’s complex patient community.
