Maryam Saleh, DDS
Dr. Maryam Saleh
Chair: Sacramento
Dr. Maryam Saleh, DDS, FAGD, is an experienced provider of Invisalign in the greater Sacramento area. She also has a considerable case history with pediatric dentistry and brings this passion for working with young people to her practice, J Street Dental Group.
Dr. Saleh graduated from the New York University College of Dentistry after earning her undergraduate degree in Biology at Pennsylvania State University. While she always enjoyed studying science, Dr. Saleh found that “being stuck in a lab and staring through microscopes” just did not appeal to her. Friends seeking degrees in dentistry convinced her to join the college dental club and shadow a local dentist at work. Soon she was hooked on dentistry.
Dr. Saleh immediately started studying dentistry and became a dental assistant while attending college. She realized that dentistry had the benefit of allowing her to work in medicine and still have time for family.
She met her future husband, Dr. Ashkan Alizadeh, while studying in New York. When she finished her degree, she came to California to complete her residency in dentistry. During this period, she gained significant experience with oral surgery. Once she finished her residency, she settled in the Sacramento area with her now husband, Dr. Alizadeh.
Dr. Alizadeh and Dr. Saleh have three children together, a daughter and two sons. They make the perfect professional pair as general dentists at the J Street Dental Group. “We have the same goals and objectives for patient care. We know that we’re both highly committed to the practice and together, we give patients a choice between a male or female practitioner. Best of all, we offer pediatric dentistry too.”
