Dr. Kenneth Tang
Periodontist
Educational Journey & Research Foundations
Dr. Kenneth Tang’s journey into dentistry began with a strong commitment to patient care. While studying biomedical engineering at Virginia Commonwealth University, he volunteered at VCU Medical Center’s Post-Anesthesia Care Unit, where he provided comfort and support to patients during recovery. This early exposure shaped his philosophy of combining science and compassion in healthcare.
He went on to earn a Master of Science in biotechnology from Johns Hopkins University, where he conducted research on novel therapeutic delivery systems aimed at improving treatment options for diabetes, a chronic disease affecting millions worldwide. This work deepened his understanding of how scientific innovation can improve patients’ lives.
Dr. Tang then completed his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) at Temple University, followed by advanced specialty training in periodontics, where he served as both chief resident and resident representative. These leadership roles, combined with his academic and clinical training, gave him a deep appreciation for clinical excellence, patient advocacy, and advancing education—values that continue to define his practice today.

A hallmark of Dr. Tang’s philosophy is his dedication to preserving natural dentition whenever possible. He emphasizes prevention, regenerative therapies, and meticulous surgical technique to help patients maintain their own teeth.
