- Education
It's Teeth Time!! Hey friends! My name is Stephen Ray, and I am a third-year dental student and YouTuber. YouTube has opened many doors for me, but I have found that I need another creative outlet. As a dental student and a young person, I have plenty of thoughts, ideas, concerns, and words of advice. This will be my place to share them. On this podcast, you will hear me describe the ins and outs of a life in dental school with topics like my social life, content creation, fitness, hobbies, relationships, and much more. You will also share in my conversations with like-minded creators, students, and doctors who share my goals: to educate and entertain. That's enough from me! Enjoy!
