BIO: DR NABEEL CAJEE
Born and raised in San Joaquin County, Dr. Nabeel feels privileged to treat patients in the community for which he cares deeply. He is a Master of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and a Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Prosthodontics. Dr Nabeel is constantly updating his skills in computer-guided surgeries including minimally invasive wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, and sinus lifts.
He completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at Highland Hospital, the San Francisco East Bay’s regional trauma center. Dr. Nabeel trained in oral surgery and comprehensive dentistry serving medically compromised patients and emergency cases in the operating room and the hospital’s outpatient clinic. He received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of the Pacific Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, during which time he received additional surgical training with the Indian Health Service in Oklahoma. Passionate about mentorship, he led a team of 32 tutors to support instruction of the Pacific Dugoni Helix Curriculum’s 1st year core medical sciences and pre-clinical dental sciences. Dr. Nabeel teaches basic and advanced suturing techniques to dentists and is a member of the faculty at University of the Pacific.
Prior to dental school, Dr. Nabeel self-designed a major at University of the Pacific in Stockton. As a student he studied Spanish, worked, and researched in Mexico, Bolivia, Colombia, and Spain. In addition he helped start and served as the Executive Director of Stockton2020, Inc., a non-profit civic advocacy group dedicated to making reinvestment in Stockton and San Joaquin Counties public libraries a priority. Dr. Nabeel’s work helped inspire Measure M on the November, 2016 Stockton ballot which will generate $150 million for libraries and recreation in the years to come.
The Cajee family has a strong, multi-generational tradition of health care providers. Dr. Nabeel believes patient care and comfort comes first.
FLOSSOPHY OF CARE
My goal: I want you to eat an apple when you are 100 years old.
“People today can expect to live longer today than ever before. What does that mean to me as a dentist? The ability to eat well into your advanced age will most likely have one of the largest impacts on your quality of life. As we age, our teeth do too! And as our dental & medical problems get more complex as we age, invasive procedures to restore function of eating become more difficult to manage for both the patient and the doctor.
What does that mean for us today? Let's look at your overall health (consult your physicians if we have to) and your current oral health and work together to customize maintainable dental treatment so you benefit from a lifetime of oral health.”
