116 - The OG Dental Entrepreneur

In this episode, we’re joined by none other than Dr. Howard Rocket — the OG Dental Entrepreneur. Long before dentistry and business were seen as inseparable, Dr. Rocket was building, innovating, and paving the way for a new generation of entrepreneurial dentists.

We dive into his incredible journey: the challenges he faced starting out, the mindset shifts that led him from clinician to leader, and the lessons he’s learned about risk-taking, resilience, and redefining success. Whether you’re a dental student, a practicing clinician, or someone fascinated by entrepreneurship, there’s something here for you.

This isn’t just a story about dentistry — it’s about vision, persistence, and what it takes to leave a mark on an entire profession.
