About:

Dr. Bruce Wilcox grew up in an American family in Calgary, Canada. He returned to Canada for dental school and graduated from University of British Columbia School of Dentistry in 1994. During dental school, he had developed an interest in geriatric dentistry, particularly for the institutionalized patient. Shortly after graduating, he applied for a grant to provide mobile dental services into Longterm Care facilities in greater Vancouver, BC. When he and his wife, a foreign trained dentist, failed to get the grant, they reviewed their model and decided it could be self-sufficient and launched their practice, which became a full time practice within a year. This experience set the tone for his career in finding efficient solutions to public and community health challenges.

In 2002, Bruce returned to the United States. He has owned 2 private practices, worked as a managing director of a corporate practice, been dental director of 2 FQHC dental programs and been site director for 2 residency programs. He was adjunct faculty to the University of Washington School of dentistry for 11 years and has been Adjunct faculty for the Arizona School of Dental and Oral Health since 2006.

His personal Why is to mentor future leaders, who will change the world.
