Dr. Nathan Cole, DMD

Dr. Nathan Cole has helped build Molly’s presence in southwest Riverside County. He earned his DMD at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine and completed his oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. He joined Molly Riverside in 2012 and became the lead surgeon at Molly Temecula when it opened in 2022.

Many of his patients are retirees in Temecula, Murrieta and Menifee who have worn dentures for years. He places implants to stabilize a lower or upper denture, often with two to four implants, and grafts bone when the jaw needs it. He works with the patient’s dentist or a Molly prosthodontist on the final teeth, and he explains clearly how a snap-on denture differs from a fixed full-arch bridge in cost, care and feel. He also places single implants and removes wisdom teeth for local teens.

Dr. Cole is a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Patients say he is easygoing and honest about costs, and they often mention the evening phone call after surgery. He has a habit of drawing the plan on the back of the estimate so patients can take both home to discuss with their families.
