Dr. Watson discovered his calling early on. At 13, he knew that dentistry wasn’t just going to be a career but a lifelong passion. His personal motto, “don’t be a dental dinosaur”, encapsulates his relentless drive to evolve as a dentist. He believes that every aspect of dental care is an opportunity to explore, innovate, and refine his skills. What truly distinguishes Dr. Watson is his genuine curiosity and devotion to the craft of dentistry. He has pursued advanced continuing education throughout his career, not only to master new techniques but also to share those insights with others. His experiences at the Nash Institute—where he immersed himself in transformative training and even embraced a full mouth reconstruction during his own treatment— not only sharpened his clinical acumen but also inspired him to give back to the dental community. Today, he teaches at the Nash Institute, guiding EFDA's and fellow dentists in mastering the best direct restorations. This teaching role stands as a testament to his belief in sharing knowledge and continuously elevating the practice of dentistry. He also serves on the board of the Academy for Private Dental Practice. Outside the dental operatory, Dr. Watson’s vibrant personality shines through. His love for live music, the great outdoors, and even the playful art of making duck calls reveals a creative spirit that informs his approach to dentistry. It is this blend of technical mastery and an adventurous heart that fuels his desire to teach and inspire fellow dentists, motivating them to push the boundaries of what’s possible in dental care.
