Jesse Ritter
I am a cosmetic and reconstructive dentist in Baltimore. I’ve bought and merged 3 dental practices since 2012.
I’m fiercely passionate about helping patients reach their dental health goals by engaging them in conversations about the truth as it relates to what they want, where they are currently and what it’s going to take to reach those goals.
I’m also passionate about mentoring and helping young dentists “see the light” early on in their career so they can create a practice lifestyle with intention.
Beyond dentistry I spend a lot of my free time diving deep into crypto, macro-economics, studying societal cycles, precious metals and firearms.
I have been mining Bitcoin since 2023, am a conceal carry license holder and am strong believer in personal freedom and autonomy.
My most important role, however, is that as a husband and father of 3 young children. They give me purpose for everything that I do.
