Dr. Lide is married and stays very busy with his four children, Mark, Madison, Mason, and Avery. Choosing a career that allows him to be skillful with his hands, was definitely a must for him, and you will soon understand why!

If it breaks, no worries! Dr. Lide takes it apart, examines and fixes it while making it better in the process. During the COVID pandemic, the aerosol purifier machines were on high demand and lengthy backorder, not a problem for Dr. Lide! He and his brother-in-law, an engineer, built several for all the operatory rooms in the dental office and built many others which have been purchased by other dental and medical professionals!
