Helping a dentist grow their practice has a positive impact on their family and their dental team. It is the most rewarding experience I have had professionally.
Larson is passionate about 123Dentist’s role in the industry’s ongoing evolution and helping partners improve the patient experience. He has been in the dental industry for over 5 years and, prior to joining 123Dentist, he worked at Straumann. When he is not helping our Partners create winning smiles, Larson can be found applying his green thumb to his garden and coaching baseball.
