Meet Dr. Moore

Christian A Moore, DMD, MD

Oral Surgeon

Dr. Christian Moore graduated Summa Cum Laude from Hobart and William Smith Colleges, in 2009 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Chemistry and a minor in Environmental Studies. He then received his degree in dental medicine from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, graduating in 2013 with a passion for oral and maxillofacial surgery. He received the Delaware Valley Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Excellence Award and ultimately matched with the University of Pittsburgh, where he began his residency in 2013.  

During his residency in oral and maxillofacial surgery, Dr. Moore operated at UPMC Presbyterian, UPMC Shadyside, UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, UPMC Mercy, and the Veterans’ Affairs Medical Center. He received his medical degree in 2017, graduating as an inductee of the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society. Dr. Moore completed an internship in general surgery before completing his OMFS training in 2019.  

While at the University of Pittsburgh, Dr. Moore received extensive exposure to all aspects of oral and maxillofacial surgery. He also participated in research on resorbable metals for craniomaxillofacial reconstruction, leading to several abstract presentations at national meetings. Dr. Moore’s current clinical interests include reconstructive surgery with implants, the removal of wisdom teeth, comprehensive reconstruction and bone grafting, orthognathic surgery, treatment of oral and maxillofacial pathology, facial trauma surgery, and anesthesia.  

Dr. Moore is proud to be a part of New Smile Now ™ Home of The Facial Surgery Center team. He has grown to love Western Pennsylvania during his time in training and beyond, though he remains an avid Philadelphia Eagles fan. When he’s not in the office, he spends his time with his wife Emily chasing their twin boys and in his spare time, running, cooking, traveling, and golfing.
