Why Did You Want to Be a Dentist?

Dr. Boyles’ mother regularly took him to the dentist for checkups and cleanings, and he was always fascinated with the different instruments. He wanted to know what each one was used for. From there, his passion to become a dentist grew with each ensuing year. All these decades later, he couldn’t be happier with his chosen career.
