We know our patients have a choice in several different areas, so we go out of our way to deliver the level of care and compassion we would want for our own families.
Theyre all related and they all begin with excellent family dentistry. You and your family lead hectic lives, and you demand a lot from your teeth.

We look forward to brightening your smile with the same attentive care, gentle technique, and conscientious service that weve given to thousands of satisfied visitors.
The art and science of dentistry has become my careers passion. I can utilize my artistic passion and skill to give my patients smiles they have always dreamed of. I am also able to relieve my patients of their pain and discomfort, restore function to better their quality of life and educate the patients how to take care and maintain their oral health.
I love Bakersfield and have considered it as my home since 2019. I have an extended family who lived in Bakersfield for more than 40 years. I am excited to own and operate the only laser dental office in all of Kern County. I envision growth in our community and look forward to the future of Bakersfield. It is very humbling to me that many of my patients come to Bakersfield from Los Angeles (many of which have been my patients for over 20 years), Simi Valley, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Arizona and even Alaska.
I have served thousands of patients throughout Southern California for more than 25 years. I opened my first dental practice, Molato Dental, in San Fernando Valley in 1999. I acquired my second practice Simi Hills Dental in Simi Valley in 2016 and served numerous patients in Ventura County for 4 years. In August 2019, I made the exciting decision to establish Laser Dental Bakersfield, where I currently work full time serving Kern County and neighboring cities.
My training began in Manila Philippines, where I completed my dental education at Centro Escolar University School of Dentistry at the age of 21. I also attended the UCLA review program for the California Central Board in 1995. In 2001, I attended Dental Engineering Laboratories workshops in Endodontics in Santa Barbara, CA. I attended the Bioclear Learning center in 2012 and became a Bioclear Certified Dentist. In 2019, my interest in dental lasers made me transform my practice into laser dentistry where I attended numerous laser classes by Fotona Lightwalker Laser. I had been restoring implants for over 18 years but in 2021, I attended and finished the Implant Maxi Course program of Loma Linda University School of Dentistry and Implant externship program of California Implant Institute to incorporate the implant surgery in my practice.
I am blessed to have 2 lovely daughters, Chelsea and Camille who support me in my career and decision to move to Bakersfield. My oldest daughter Chelsea is in Loma Linda University School of Dentistry hygiene program graduating May of 2022 then will start her Dental degree to become a dentist in the Fall of 2022 in the same university. My younger daughter Camille currently works at Laser Dental Bakersfield as a dental/office assistant.
Volunteering in the community is also one of the things I enjoy doing. I was a volunteer dentist for 6 years at MEND (a nonprofit organization in Pacoima CA) until 2015. I also joined different community outreach programs in different countries in the past like the Philippines and Peru.
One of the reasons why I love being a dental assistant is because of the patient interaction. I have met some of the funniest, most interesting people while working at this job. Another reason why I love my job is because I get to spend more time with my best friend, my mom, Dr. Molato! I love working with the staff in all the dental offices that my mom has established. I have known them all my life because they have been with my mom for many years, and I basically grew up at the dental office. I joined the team when I was in 10th grade. I also enjoy attending dental seminars, where I get to meet very inspiring dentists, which help me envision myself as a future colleague.
I am on target to graduate from the Loma Linda School of Dentistry for the Hygiene/Dental Bridge program in 2022. I plan to enroll in the DDS program at Loma Linda in the Fall of 2022. I graduated from Cal State Northridge with a degree in Cell and Molecular biology in 2019. Even though I am a full-time dental student, I help the office remotely doing admin and billing. You can still see me work in the office from time to time when I visit Bakersfield.

My experience at Laser Dental with Dr. Molato and Staff has been outstanding! I first came in for some concerns after a car accident. Thankfully Dr. Molato was able to work her magic. Her energy, professionalism, and attention to detail is second to none. The office is always clean. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Molato takes extreme pride in her work and I would definitely recommend her.

I can not say enough good things about this dentist office! From the receptionist to the dentist and everyone in between they made me feel the most comfortable I have ever felt at a dentist visit. They were all very comforting and never left any questions in answered. I will recommend laser dental to anyone who needs and dental work done.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE! I have never been to a dentist that cares so much and makes you feel like a part of the family. I have always been so afraid to go to the dentist due to past experiences. As soon as I found Dr. Molato she changed my whole perception. My entire family and even my friends/coworkers go to her now because of how amazing she is! I will never go anywhere else. She is my family And not to mention her office staff is top tier and I look forward to seeing each and every one of them every time.

Absolutely one of the best Dentist on the planet.The staff also made me feel very comfortable and were very kind. I don't think there is a better Dentist around Bakersfield. I had a horrible experience with Western Dental about 3yrs ago and was nervous to go back to another dentist again. Then Laser Dental called me for some Electric work they needed and I needed dental work done so I booked an appointment and so happy I did. I finally found a home dentist.

One of the most excruciating pains i have ever been through. They told me that i should be okay and continued to pull my tooth with me wide awake under the advisement that they told me i should be fine.

As my first time in the office, I was very impressed. Everyone is so friendly, especially Dr. Jeannie. She ensured my pain went away and I really appreciated that. As she works on my teeth, she was telling me everything she was doing so I was aware. I love this place and would recommend to anyone.
