About MSD Dental Studio
A dental practice built to a higher standard
Independent, doctor-owned, and invested in the Coral Springs community.
Why we started MSD
We answer to no one but our patients
Before MSD, Dr. Dillon and Dr. Shantall were colleagues having the same conversation behind closed doors: this isn’t the dentistry we trained for. Somewhere along the way, volume targets and billing codes had crowded out the part that actually matters — solving the problem underneath, and creating a calm enough space for people to feel ready to say “yes” and to feel like they finally had a team advocating for them.
“We didn’t spend nine years in training to become dental procedure box-checkers — we did it to help people.”
So they built one — a practice that’s small, independent, and built entirely around the people they treat.
That independence is the whole point. In larger groups, even a dentist who holds the clinical license often has less say in the team’s training and the structure of visits. Here, no outside company sets quotas or decides how many minutes you’re worth — the two of us make every call about your care, together, based on what’s actually right for you.
Two owners, two sets of eyes
Two opinions before any plan is set
We’re equal co-founders with complementary strengths. Dr. Dillon rebuilds and restores teeth; Dr. Shantall focuses on prevention and alignment. On anything significant, you get both of our opinions before a plan is set — a quiet advantage that’s genuinely hard to find. Most of the time you get one dentist’s read. Here you get two who talk to each other, and who have both pursued advanced training at the Kois Center.
“Matt is the most relentless learner I know. Dentistry has changed so much — the materials, the digital tools, what’s actually possible for patients — and he’s always chasing the next bit of training so our patients feel the benefit. It’s a big part of why I wanted to build this with him.”— Dr. Shantall Di Loreto
How we think about your teeth
Keep what’s healthy. Catch problems early. Fix what needs fixing in a way that lasts. We explain everything in plain language so you can make the call with us, not just nod along. No secret philosophy — just attention and honesty.
“What patients feel with Shantall is calm. People walk in tense and somehow leave relaxed — she has a way of making the chair feel safe. I’ve watched her turn lifelong dental anxiety into trust more times than I can count.”— Dr. Matthew Dillon
Here for all of North Broward
We’re proud to be part of the Broward community and to care for neighbors throughout North Broward — Coral Springs, Parkland, Coconut Creek, Margate, Tamarac, and beyond — in English and Spanish, and to support local causes close to us, including animal rescue.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does “independent, doctor-owned” mean?
It means no outside company or dental group sets quotas or decides your treatment. The two dentists who own MSD make every call about your care, together.
Who owns MSD Dental Studio?
Dr. Matthew Dillon and Dr. Shantall Di Loreto, equal co-founders who practice side by side in Coral Springs.
What does “MSD” stand for — is it related to the high school in Parkland?
No — “MSD” comes from our own initials: Dr. Matthew Dillon and Dr. Shantall Di Loreto. The shared initials with the Parkland high school weren’t top of mind when we named the practice; people kindly pointed it out to us after we’d opened. We have a great deal of respect for that school and community, and we hope our name isn’t a source of confusion — it simply reflects the two doctors behind the practice.
