MAP TALKS

DR. FELIPE BAUER

“Felipe Bauer graduated from the University of Arizona cum laude and with honors as a Veterinary Science major and a minor in Astronomy. After interning in a small animal hospital and at the Reid Park Zoo, he decided to change his sights to human dentition, even though observing an elephant dental extraction was quite fascinating! He attended the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine and returned home to practice dentistry in his hometown of Tucson. He was fortunate enough to spend the first two years in an LVI trained office, where he learned much about physiologic dentistry and ultimately completed the coursework to earn his LVI fellowship. He is currently working as a staff dentist at the local dental center of the Pascua Yaqui Native American reservation, serving a beautiful community with important cultural significance in the Southern Arizona region. He remains passionate about pursuing the highest quality of dentistry with modern technological advancements, taking courses at CDOCS on digital scanning, milling, and printing. He one day looks to create the premier physiologic practice in Tucson, inspired by the LVI faculty who have set an incredible standard to aspire to.”

He has utilized the knowledge and leadership of his mentors particularly his LVI family to help realize his goals.
