Why Did You Decide to Become a Pediatric Dentist?

When Dr. Rozas was a toddler, her mom often gave her coke and chocolate milk in her bottle, which led to “baby bottle tooth decay.” As a result, she had to have her front teeth pulled when she was only three. Throughout childhood, she also had three sets of braces, her wisdom teeth pulled, and plenty of cavities. Despite all of this, she absolutely loved going to see her dentists.

Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?

Dr. Rozas grew up with a large extended family in Galveston. They owned three seafood restaurants (Shrimp & Stuff Restaurant and Pier 22), and she worked there throughout her teen and college years. She met her husband at Texas A&M University (WHOOP!), and they’ve been married for nearly 30 years now. Their son, Bryce, is currently studying engineering at Texas A&M University, and their daughter attends Coppell High School. As a family, they enjoy snow skiing, surfing, and attending Dallas Maverick games.
