As an undergraduate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Dr. Rogers started as a business major, but became a biology major. Volunteering at the UNC at Chapel Hill Adams School of Dentistry changed his career path during this time. A patient who had survived squamous cell cancer of the mouth palate suffered devastating side effects that left him unable to smile, speak, chew food, or drink beverages. He was fitted with a special denture prosthesis that transformed his life. This impactful experience led to Dr. Rogers enrolling in and completing his dental degree at this institution. Every day since becoming a dentist, Dr. Rogers feels grateful that he can transform smiles and lives by delivering compassionate, state-of-the-art dental care.
