Meet Dr. Joe Baguette and his story behind being part of Alaska Premier Dental Group - the Crown Council's Humanitarian Team of the year.  Joe was raised in the small, rural community of Branchville, New Jersey. After graduating from High Point University in North Carolina in 1989, he attended Temple University Dental School graduating in May of 1993. He joined the Indian Health Service as a Bush dentist in Bethel, Alaska for 4 years. He enjoyed his experience flying 22 weeks of the year taking care of native Alaskans. Joe gained much; honing his dental skills working up to 14 hours per day. In 1997, he transferred to Anchorage to the Alaska Native Medical Center. Over the next three years, he was mentored in emergency hospital dentistry. This included many hours in the operating room with an oral surgeon and additional Operating Room time with pediatric cases. He valued the continual opportunities to further his education in all clinical specialties through lectures and one-on-one clinical mentoring. From there, Joe associated with Dr. Jim Libby from 1999-2006 when he became co-owner of Alaska Premier Dental Group and GentleCare Dental Center.
