Throughout college Dr. Evans taught ski school to four and five year old children. He was able to help many children who were timid or frightened about learning to ski and he enjoyed seeing how proud the children felt when showing off their newly attained skiing skills to their parents. As a ski instructor Dr. Evans goal was to help his students enjoy skiing so they would want to come back and he follows this same philosophy when it comes to practicing dentistry. He loves working with kids and will do his best to make your child's experience at the dentist office a great one so they will look forward to future visits.
