How I Became a Dentist

Most people get a chuckle out of the story about how I got into dentistry. I thought I’d share it with you. I know you will keep it just between us.

Sometimes you end up doing what you do because you just bet you can do it.

I planned to get a PhD in chemistry, to be a chemist. That’s where I was headed.

Walter Baisley, I’ll call him to protect his innocence, was a year ahead of me at Oklahoma Baptist University. One night he came waltzing into the dorm waving an acceptance paper for dental school.

Pompous beyond words, he said, “Hey, I got into dental school. Five hundred people apply. They just accept 80. I was one of them. Aren’t I neat?”

I said, “Walter, you’re so full of hot air. Anybody can get into dental school.” He said, “I bet you $100 you couldn’t.” I said, “I bet you $100 I can.” That was $100 I didn’t have. Walter made a big deal out of it. A bunch of people were there to watch the scene go down.

How I Became a Dentist (continued)

I had no choice. I applied to the University of Missouri Dental School in Kansas City. I got accepted without even going back for an interview.

Waving my acceptance letter, I made a big deal out of telling Walter in front of these guys, “I got in. Where’s the $100?” He wrote me a check for $100.

The acceptance letter said they required $100 to hold the seat, so I forked that $100 over to the University of Missouri in Kansas City.

I got in for all the wrong reasons, but after the first year there I felt it was good for me and I just went ahead with it.

After my studies at the University of Missouri in Kansas City, I stayed in Kansas City and practiced restorative dentistry for fifteen years before my family and I moved to Boston so I could study Endodontics.

Again, Thanks!!!

We have performed thousands of root canals during these 20 years. It has been a pleasure to serve the people of Southern Arizona with you. We sincerely thank you and want you to know, more than ever, we are here to exceed your expectations and those of the patients you send our way.

Hope Fest 2009 Update
The Day in Pictures (Click Here)

It’s in the books! I just want to give everyone a post-HOPE FEST update. I can honestly say that this was absolutely the most successful HOPE FEST event ever held. Congratulations to the Tucson dental community for stepping up and giving of themselves. We had over 120 people volunteer for the dental venue. Let me share some of the numbers that I hope will put this event into perspective.

  • 110 operative patients were treated
  • 87 hygiene patients were treated
  • 95 endodontic vouchers were given out
  • 136 patients were seen for extractions which translate into HUNDREDS of teeth removed.
  • 35 patients received on-site flippers of some sort
  • 45 prosthetic vouchers were distributed for partials and/or full dentures

If one were to try and put a dollar amount on the dentistry that was done at HOPE FEST, it would come close to $500,000! That is absolutely amazing. Now let me give you an overall idea what this whole event does for our community. Over 20,000 people attended the event. There were at least 200 people who spent the night in line the night before the event.

  • 500 haircuts were performed
  • 2500 bags of groceries were handed out
  • 25 pallets of hygiene products were distributed
  • 1000 medical procedures were performed
  • 300 pairs of reading glasses given out
  • 50,000 lbs of clothing was distributed

I want to thank EVERYONE who gave their time, energy and skills to make an event like this come true. These are hard economic times and the number of participants at this year’s event proves that even more people are in need. Thank you all for your help, your prayers, your financial help, and your open hearts.
