MEET DR. KABIR SANDHU

Born and raised in Southern California, Dr. Sandhu has been interested in dentistry since he was in his teens. He was always self-conscious about his smile growing up because of severe crowding and malaligned teeth. That is until he gained self-confidence following the completion of orthodontic treatment. No longer afraid to smile, Dr. Sandhu has been committed to reciprocating that life-changing feeling with his community ever since. After attending dental school at Boston University, Dr. Sandhu returned home in 2012 and worked as an associate for seven years. It was at this point that he decided that it was time to open his own practice and do dentistry differently by fostering the growth of relationships around and within his own office. He met the wonderful Dr. Zellerbach at just the right time and acquired her practice shortly thereafter. Committed to continuing her family-oriented and professional reputation, Dr. Sandhu is bringing modern comforts and treatments to the local community as Riverside Tooth Co.
