About Twin Rivers Periodontics | Raul S Molina & Gary S Perlman

Twin Rivers Periodontics | Raul S Molina & Gary S Perlman operates on San Jose Park Drive in the Goodby's Creek area of Jacksonville, Florida. Periodontics is the specialty focused on the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, handling more advanced gum disease, related surgical treatment, and — in many practices — dental implant placement, which sits naturally alongside that training.

Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.

Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

Can a periodontist save a loose tooth?
Sometimes. If the looseness comes from bone loss around the tooth, deep cleaning and periodontal treatment can stabilise it, though the outcome depends on how much support has already been lost.
What is gum recession and can it be treated?
Recession is when gum tissue pulls back and exposes more of the tooth root, often from aggressive brushing, gum disease, or grinding. Grafting procedures can cover exposed roots, though how well that works depends on the extent of the recession.
What happens during a routine dental examination?
The dentist checks the teeth for decay, examines the gums, looks at any existing fillings and crowns, and screens the soft tissues. X-rays are taken when there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth.

This was my first visit to Dr. Raul S. Molina’s office, and I was very pleased with the care I received. From the moment I arrived, Maria, his assistant, was friendly, efficient, and welcoming. Dr. Molina demonstrated outstanding professionalism and expertise. He performed a thorough evaluation, clearly explained the procedure, and made sure I was comfortable and well informed throughout the entire process. The procedure took less than an hour, and my recovery has been smooth and uneventful. One aspect I especially appreciated is that Dr. Molina is bilingual in both English and Spanish, which made communication easy and reassuring. I would also like to thank Nicole at the front desk for her helpful and attentive service. I highly recommend Dr. Molina and his entire team for their excellent care, professionalism, and genuine concern for their patients.

Dr. Molina and his staff are amazing! My husband and I both had to get some wisdom tooth surgery. We never experienced any pain. They made sure we were comfortable and understood what they were doing. They also use draw several vials of your blood to spin to get platelets for treatment that I believe helps with the healing process.

Thank you to Dr Molina and his wonderful staff! Best and most professional team I’ve had caring for my surgical dental implants. The office has all the highest technology when it comes to treatment and maintenance. Dr Molina and Maria work fantastic together to ensure patients are comfortable and understand the entire process. I recovered quickly from my procedure and Cindy followed up with me as well to make sure I was healing well. Both Archie and I appreciate all your hard work.

I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude to Dr. Raúl Molina and his entire office for the procedure I had last week. The professionalism, patience, care, and gentleness from the doctor, his assistant, and everyone on the team were truly outstanding. From the ladies at the front desk Cindy and Nicole to the doctor, I have never experienced this level of care in a dental office before. On the day of the procedure, when I had to have two root canals with crowns removed, I was a bit nervous. As soon as I arrived, Maria, the assistant, was incredibly kind. I hadn’t eaten breakfast, and she kindly offered me an apple, got me settled in, covered me with a blanket, and spoke to me in such a calming and reassuring way. Then the staff member who drew my blood was also excellent. And Dr. Molina, truly exceptional. Throughout the entire procedure, they were extremely patient with me and kept me informed about everything they were doing. Even though it was a difficult procedure, the experience was so much better because I was in the hands of Dr. Molina and his team. I followed all his instructions and I had no pain no swelling! I am extremely grateful for their professionalism and for the way I was treated. Highly recommend.

Best and caring staff. Highly professional and very flexible to patient needs. My health is very complicated and compromised and they made an exception to manage my oral care with a very different and specific protocol. I am blessed to have Dr. Molina and his staff.
