His Story

A Lifelong Dedication
to Transforming Smiles

Dr. Hector Palma Cochran has dedicated his career to a single pursuit: giving every patient a smile they're proud to share. After completing his dental degree and orthodontic specialty residency, he founded HP Orthodontics in Los Algodones — a clinic built on the belief that world-class care should be accessible to everyone.

Over 15 years and thousands of patients later, that belief hasn't changed. Dr. Palma personally oversees every treatment plan, from the initial consultation through the final result. His approach combines clinical precision with a genuine understanding of what a transformed smile means to a person's confidence and quality of life.

Fluent in both English and Spanish, Dr. Palma has built a practice that warmly serves patients from across the United States, Canada, and Mexico — many of whom travel specifically to Los Algodones for the combination of specialist expertise and exceptional value.
