Dr. Myrna Rodriguez

I earned my Science Degree from the University of Puerto Rico – University College of Humacao and then transferred to the Medical Sciences Campus from the University of Puerto Rico where I earned my Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry in 1983. Upon graduation, I worked fifteen years in my original home town Las Piedras, Puerto Rico. I moved to Orlando, Florida in 1999 and started practicing at AV DENTAL in September 2000.

I am committed to providing the highest level of care to my patients, and I believe the only way to achieve this is to stay current with the latest materials, techniques, technology, and equipment.  I frequently participate in continuing education classes, technical and practical training courses, conferences, seminars, and symposiums, as well as subscribe to dental publications to stay current.

I am licensed to practice dentistry in the State of Florida and in Puerto Rico, and I am a member of the American Dental Association, the Florida Dental Association, and The College of Dental Surgeons of Puerto Rico.

Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, doing internal tourism, and playing with my beautiful Maltese, Frosty.
