Dr. Khawla (Kay) AlJohani

Board-Certified Periodontist and Implant Surgeon

Dr. Khawla AlJohani, affectionately known as Dr. Kay to her patients, grew up in the vibrant city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, surrounded by a family of dentists and specialists who inspired her passion for dentistry from an early age. She began her own dental career by earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from Ibn Sina National College, followed by a General Practice Residency (GPR) at the National Guards Hospital in Jeddah, where she gained hands-on experience in a wide range of dental procedures.

Dr. Kay’s passion for periodontics and implant dentistry led her to the United States, where she pursued advanced specialty training at Case Western Reserve University, School of Dental Medicine. There, she completed a rigorous residency in Periodontics and Implant Dentistry while earning a Master of Science in Dentistry (MSD) degree. Dr. Kay is also proud to be a board-certified periodontist and Implant surgeon, a distinction that reflects her commitment to providing the highest standard of care in her field. Dr. Kay is also LANAP-certified and trained in conscious sedation, allowing her to offer minimally invasive, comfortable treatment options for her patients. She stays at the forefront of periodontal technology, utilizing the latest advancements to ensure precise, effective, and patient-friendly care.

Dr. Kay quickly fell in love with the Greater Cleveland area, and it didn’t take long for her to establish strong roots here. Dr. Kay is proud to call Northeast Ohio home and looks forward to continuing to serve the people of this area with the same care and commitment she feels toward her own family.
