Many years ago he and Lance Burton were working theme parks and Tim was trying to decide if he wanted to be a magician or a dentist. Lance chose magic (Excellent choice for Lance) Tim chose becoming a dentist in Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics (Excellent Choice for Tim). Tim went on to build one of the most successful Pediatric dental practices in the country which brands itself around his love of Magic, and how he creates a Magic Smile for the kids. Doing magic tricks for the kids to calm them down before the dental work begins is pure brilliance!
