Meet Dr. Harris

During basketball practice in his senior year of high school, Dr. Harris’ life was changed forever. Following a collision with a teammate, he landed face-first on the wood floor and fractured his two front teeth. Over the course of the next several months, he saw firsthand the impact a dentist could have in someone’s life, as he eventually came out with a brand new smile!

Having always planned to pursue a career in the medical field, Dr. Harris was drawn to dentistry after seeing his own smile transform. Once in dental school, he realized specializing in Orthodontics was the best way to truly transform a smile. Dr. Harris was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and moved to St. George, Utah with his family as a young boy. After high school, he served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Stockholm, Sweden.
