Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
Dr. Csok’s journey to becoming a dentist started where she grew up, a small village in Romania. There, she says that most people didn’t go to the dentist regularly and would only schedule appointments once their pain became excruciating. As a result, she Dr. Csok was afraid of the dentist! Her perspective changed when she moved to the United States. In middle school, she noticed that most of her classmates had braces, and this caught her attention because she had crooked teeth herself. The ability to change this fascinated her, and she eventually paid for her own braces while in high school.
