You mastered dentistry. Now it’s time to master the business behind it.
Where Clinical Excellence Meets CEO Confidence
I’m Dr. Megan Shelton, a Kois Mentor, AACD-accredited cosmetic dentist, and executive growth strategist. I help practice owners evolve from “busy operator” to confident CEO, transforming their practice, leadership, and life.
You were trained to fix smiles, not to build businesses. And yet, every day you juggle insurance limits, staff turnover, patient flow, and production goals, all while trying to deliver the kind of care you’re proud of.
You’re not alone. Most dentists hit the same wall:
You’re producing more, but keeping less.
Your team feels reactive and inconsistent.
You’re always the bottleneck.
You’ve done the CE, but still feel like something’s missing.
Here’s the truth: clinical mastery doesn’t guarantee business mastery.
But when you align both, everything changes, profit, peace, and patient experience.
The Truth No One Told You in Dental School
Why Dentists Choose Me
Because I’ve built what you’re trying to build, in today’s economy, with today’s workforce.
I’m not the retired consultant in Dockers teaching yesterday’s dentistry. I’m a millennial dentist, business owner, and advisor who scaled a private practice from $300K to $3.6M and sold at peak value (all without AI, I know!), while navigating inflation, staffing volatility, insurance pressure, and leadership burnout.
What’s different about my approach:
Real-world credibility: Kois-trained, AACD-accredited, and clinically grounded in risk-based, functional dentistry.
Modern leadership: I understand how today’s teams think, work, and disengage, and how to lead without micromanaging or going soft.
Depth over volume: I don’t do massive groups or templated advice. I work deeply, strategically, and honestly.
Results that actually stick: More clarity, stronger leadership, better systems, and a practice that performs and feels good to run.
If you want polite advice, I’m not your person.
If you want clear thinking, strong standards, and real traction, I am.
It’s not consulting. It’s calibration.
What Working Together Looks Like
My clients don’t hire me for a pep talk. They hire me to transform the way they think, lead, and perform.
Together, we build:
Leadership Confidence: You’ll stop managing problems and start inspiring performance.
Systems that Scale: Scheduling, treatment presentation, and financial workflows that drive consistent production.
Team Alignment: Communication tools that eliminate drama and strengthen accountability.
Clinical Integration: Data-driven decision making rooted in Kois principles, smile design, connecting occlusion, risk, and profitability.
Coaching isn’t an expense. It’s the most profitable procedure you’ll ever do.
Every system you refine, every leadership conversation you master, every team member you elevate, it all compounds.
My clients routinely see:
10–30% growth in production within 6–12 months
Higher case acceptance through elevated verbiage and visuals
Reduced turnover as teams feel supported and accountable
Doctor fulfillment that’s visible in every interaction
You’ve invested in CE for your hands.
Now it’s time to invest in CE for your head and heart.
