In 1988 Dr. Young became an official periodontist having graduated from the residency program here in San Antonio while still on active duty. Dr. Young's first assignment as a periodontist was Sheppard AFB, Wichita Falls, Texas practicing and teaching in an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) program for newly graduated dental students. This was like the one he attended his first year following Dental School graduation. In 1993 Dr. Young returned here to San Antonio to become a part of the Air Force Periodontics Residency Program at Wilford Hall and also to direct the Air Force equivalent to a dental hygiene school.
