After dental school, he was accepted directly into a residency program for training as a specialist.
Dr. Molen completed a six-year residency program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Some of the first orthognathic (jaw) surgery and dental implant surgery procedures performed in the United States were done at the Mayo Clinic by the pioneers in these fields from Germany and Sweden, and the doctors they trained were some of Dr. Molen’s instructors.
