About
Oral Surgery Procedures
Dr. Molina earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from the University of Southern California School of Dentistry. Following graduation, he practiced general dentistry for 12 years, developing extensive experience with a strong emphasis on surgical procedures. This foundation provided him with a comprehensive understanding of oral health, enabling him to evaluate and manage patients from a broad, well-rounded perspective while maintaining clear and effective communication with both patients and referring providers.
Motivated to specialize exclusively in oral surgery, Dr. Molina completed surgical externships at the Universities of Oklahoma, Minnesota, and Cincinnati. He then pursued a one-year surgical internship in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Columbia University’s Harlem Hospital, followed by four additional years of advanced training at the University of Puerto Rico, where he earned his Certificate in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
Dr. Molina is deeply committed to helping patients achieve relief and renewed confidence. He finds particular fulfillment in procedures such as third molar (wisdom teeth) removal, dental implant placement, and corrective jaw surgery. By alleviating pain, improving function and bite, addressing conditions such as sleep apnea, and enhancing facial aesthetics, he helps patients experience meaningful improvements in their overall health, self-esteem, and quality of life.
“Oral and maxillofacial surgery is not only about performing complex procedures—it is about helping people feel healthier, more confident, and empowered to live their lives to the fullest.”
