Kelly Giannetti

DR. KELLY GIANNETTI grew up in the Central Valley of California. As a child of teachers, she developed a love for education. She graduated from UC Davis with a BS in physiology and moved to Boston for her next adventure in dental school. In 1995, she graduated from Harvard University with a doctorate in dental medicine and a master’s in public health. She furthered her orthodontic specialty education with a master’s in oral biology at the University of California at San Francisco. After graduating in 1998, Dr. Giannetti moved to Sacramento, California to be near her family.

In addition to her private practice, Dr. Giannetti is the director of the Orthodontic Assisting Program at the FADE Institute and guest lecturer at UCSF Orthodontic Department. Her passion for dentistry, learning, and travelling takes her to all corners of the world where she collaborates with other health care providers to bring a unique perspective to her practice.

Dr. Giannetti met her husband, Stephen, in 1986 at UC Davis. Stephen is a fine art painter whose paintings inspired the practice logo and are on display in the office. They have two girls, Maya and Isabella. Maya is currently in dental school at UCLA and hopes to join Dr. Giannetti and Dr. Booms after graduation. Isabella is a freshman in college.
