He has practiced dentistry in Orem, Utah, since 1999, and opened Sachs Family Dental in 2004.

Dr. Sachs continues his education regularly, studying and training beyond the amount of continuing education courses required in order to perfect his current technique and to learn new procedures to benefit his patients. He has received advanced training in dental implants, laser dentistry, and in providing treatments for soft and hard tissues, root canals, and orthodontics.

Dr. Sachs has 3 children and 2 beautiful grandchildren. He loves to build remote control airplanes, collect old coins and watches, and go four-wheeling and boating. His favorite thing by far, however, is spending time with his family.
