Who is Michael P. Najera? Is he just your everyday dentist?

Michael P. Najera is a local born and raised dental specialist. That's right an El Pasoan with a true passion for his profession and patients. Dr. Najera is a board certified Periodontist working in our Sun City, El Paso.

What sets him apart? He is the ONLY Hispanic Periodontist in West Texas. Dr. Najera always knew that he wanted to be in the health care profession. With that in mind he received an undergraduate degree from the University of Texas in Biology, then attended Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas, Texas where he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. Upon graduation, Dr. Najera completed a General Practice Residency with the United States Air Force in Washington DC. He then served 5 more years for his county while stationed in Lubbock Texas. Wanting to fulfill his dream of becoming a dental specialist, Dr. Najera then returned to Baylor where he completed a three year residency in Periodontics and earned a Masters of Science in Oral Biology. Having accomplished his academic goals and raising the bar for himself, he wanted nothing more than to come back to our beautiful Sun City and serve the growing need for periodontal and dental implant services in El Paso where he's been doing an excellent job since 1996.
