Why Did You Decide to Become a Pediatric Dentist?

“I originally owned a general dental office in Utah, and after a few months of running my own dental office, I quickly realized my favorite patients of the day were kids. I immediately sold my dental office, applied for a pediatric residency, and went back to school to focus on the area of dentistry I enjoyed most. Being a kid at heart, pediatric dentistry felt like a great fit for me.”
