Tarang Patel, DDS

Dr. Tarang Patel believes that a confident, healthy smile can truly change someone’s life. That’s why he’s made it his personal mission to deliver exceptional, patient-centered dentistry to every person who walks through the door at his Modesto practice. From the moment you sit in his chair, you’ll feel the difference: thoughtful care, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to helping you achieve the beautiful, lasting results you deserve.

Education & Advanced Training

Dr. Patel grew up in India, where he earned his initial dental degree from the prestigious Government Dental College and Hospital in Ahmedabad. Determined to bring the highest standards of care to his patients, he continued his education in the United States and earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of USC in Los Angeles in 2019. He graduated with honors and was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU) Dental Honor Society, Zeta Chapter—an achievement awarded to students who demonstrate exceptional academic and clinical excellence, exemplary character, and strong leadership potential.

Never one to stop learning, Dr. Patel maintains his skills through ongoing continuing education and advanced training. His certifications and clinical experience include:

  • Certification in the revolutionary All-on-4® “Teeth in a Day” full-arch implant technique
  • Certification as an Invisalign® provider
  • Endodontics (Root Canals)
  • Orthodontics (Clear Aligners)
  • Cosmetic dentistry (Veneers)
  • Sedation dentistry (Nitrous and Oral Sedation)
  • Oral surgery (Wisdom teeth and surgical extractions)
  • Implant placement and restorations (Crowns, Bridges, All-on-4, and Snap-on dentures)

As a general dentist practicing all aspects of family dentistry, he is dedicated to providing high-quality, conservative care in a friendly, comfortable environment for patients of all ages. Dr. Patel is deeply committed to collaborating with specialists whenever interdisciplinary care is needed to ensure the best possible outcomes.

He is an active member of the American Dental Association (ADA), the California Dental Association (CDA), and the Stanislaus Dental Society.

Life Outside the Office

When he’s not creating healthy, confident smiles, Dr. Patel is surrounded by the people who inspire his own—his wife Sheena and their two children, Evyaan and Navyaa. He currently lives in Manteca, where family always comes first, and he treasures every moment spent making memories with them.

To stay energized and balanced, Dr. Patel enjoys swimming, tennis, yoga, outdoor sports, exploring new places, and spending quality time with family and friends.

Warm, highly skilled, and deeply dedicated, Dr. Patel and his team can’t wait to welcome you and help you love your smile again.
