Dr. Meera Sahni

Dr. Meera Sahni is a Board-Certified periodontist certified in Dental Implant Surgery and Periodontology. She was born and raised on the Jersey Shore in Rumson, New Jersey, where she spent her childhood sailing on the Shrewsbury River. Her passion for Periodontics began after a moving shadowing experience where she encountered a 16-year-old patient with periodontal disease. Dr. Sahni majored in Art History and earned her BA from Barnard College, Columbia University, to balance her varied interests. She was awarded the Alpha Zeta Prize for her thesis on Contemporary Chinese Art.

Her dental career began shortly after graduating college at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, where she earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree and was the recipient of American Academy of Periodontology Outstanding Senior Award awarded to the graduating senior who demonstrates a high level of clinical and academic excellence in the field of Periodontics.

After honing her interest in Periodontics during dental school, Dr. Sahni was accepted to the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, where she received her Certificate of Periodontology. In addition to her surgical training, Dr. Sahni also received her Master of Science Degree in Oral Microbiology during her time at UPenn, which involved a clinical research project on enhancing traditional non-surgical periodontal therapy. Prior to joining Dr. Steve Eisen and Dr. Scott Zirkin in 2020, she worked all over South and North Jersey.

Dr. Sahni is a firm believer in providing excellent care to her patients before, during, and long after treatment. Her patients are her number one priority, which gives her excellent satisfaction in her practice. Outside of dentistry, Meera is passionate about developing a healthy mindset through her weekly yoga and mindfulness practice. She is also an avid lover of art museums, birds, road biking, running, and any opportunity to go hiking in nature.
