Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?

Dr. Hutto’s family has a long history of serving Baytown ever since his grandparents moved here in 1927. His dad even served as mayor for 12 years. So it’s no surprise that he would inherit the same passion for helping his local community.

Early on, Dr. Hutto knew that he wanted to become a doctor of some kind. He initially considered pursuing traditional medicine, but one of his good friends – a dermatologist – had a brother who was a dentist and suggested that he follow that path instead. The rest is history!
