From Dental School to Dental Practice: The Real-World Blueprint for Success
Hi, I’m Dr. Alex Piedra — a practicing pediatric dentist, entrepreneur, and dental school admissions coach. I am an undergrad graduate from BYU. I also graduated from the highly sought after University of Utah School of Dentistry and now teach Foundations of Dentistry at Baylor University, where I mentor pre-dental students and guide them toward their goals with clarity and confidence. Beyond academics, I own and operate four successful pediatric dental practices, giving me firsthand insight into both the clinical and business sides of dentistry. I’ve coached dozens of students through the application process, helping them craft compelling personal statements, ace their interviews, and ultimately get into their dream schools. If you're ready to stand out and step into your future as a dental professional, I’m here to help you make it happen.
