Meet Dr. Paula Muñoz

Dr. Paula Muñoz is a bilingual oral surgeon, who joins our practice having graduated from the OMFS program at Alameda Health System/Highland Hospital, where she served as chief resident in her final year. During her time there, she received full scope training in oral surgery, and developed a particular interest in implant and dentoalveolar surgery, anesthesiology, pathology, facial trauma, and craniofacial/orthognathic surgery, including participation in cleft missions through Operation Smile. Originally, growing up in Sarasota, Florida, she went on to become a Roberston Scholar and graduated with honors from University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and Duke University. She then earned her dental degree (DDS) from Columbia University. At Columbia, she demonstrated a passion for research, wining several awards including the prestigious Dr Milton Schlesinger Award for Excellence in Research.

We are excited to introduce you to Dr. Chiccone and Dr. Muñoz and look forward to providing excellent care to your patients.
