Maria Trinidad, DDS
General Dentist
Dr. Maria Trinidad is a native of the Dominican Republic where she graduated as both a medical doctor and a dentist. After living in Spain and traveling Europe, she decided to continue pursuing her dental career in the USA at NYU College of Dentistry. As a dental resident at Bronx Lebanon Hospital, she was chosen to be a chief resident and later as an attending. The 9/11 event brought her to upstate New York into the Capital Region where she resided for more than 14 years. Presently, she relocated to Texas, to be closer to her kids.
Dr. Trinidad finds joy in helping others over come the fear, insecurities in their smile and help them to re-innovate and to learn to love and care for their teeth. She always put her best foot forward in decision making and always wants what’s best for her patients. She believes in treating each person’s mouth as if it was her own.
Dr. Trinidad enjoys making jewelry, reading, riding her bike and working out. She loves festivals, craft fairs, musicals and performing arts. She has a wide diversity of friends that she considers her family and is truly grateful to be in Texas.
