Meet Our Doctors
The two people behind MSD
Get to know Dr. Dillon and Dr. Shantall before your first visit.
Dr. Matthew Dillon, DDS, MAGD, FICOI
Restorative & implant dentistry
“My role is to give patients clarity — so they understand their options, feel confident in their decisions, and know exactly what to expect.”
Dr. Dillon enjoys the detective work of dentistry. Cavities, cracked teeth, and worn-down smiles are easy to see; the reason they happen isn’t always obvious. He works out why teeth break down so patients stay ahead of larger problems, and when rebuilding is the right call — implants, crowns, restoring teeth with extensive damage — that’s his craft.
Raised in a South Florida family rooted in healthcare and public service, he developed an early appreciation for accountability, trust, and clear communication. Outside the office, he enjoys time with his family, playing lacrosse, and supporting animal welfare.
“Matthew cares deeply about this work. He takes pride in doing it well, but little of it is about him. He’s soft-spoken. He sits, listens, and gives patients room to tell their story. He knows how much can build up over the years for some — and that others just want to get in and out. He respects both. He truly cares.”— Dr. Shantall Di Loreto
Dr. Shantall Di Loreto, DDS
Prevention, hygiene & alignment
“I focus on how patients feel throughout their visit — creating an experience that’s comfortable, supportive, and genuinely positive from start to finish.”
Dr. Shantall has a particular interest in helping patients improve both the health and the appearance of their smiles — through preventive care, clear-aligner therapy, and comprehensive treatment planning. She’s known for her gentle approach, her attention to detail, and her ability to help patients feel comfortable and informed throughout treatment. A fluent Spanish speaker, she loves helping both English- and Spanish-speaking families feel at home in the practice.
She has straightened hundreds of smiles and loves the boost in confidence that comes with them — and being part of a dental journey many patients are nervous to begin. She’s also fascinated by the science of how teeth break down, and by finding smarter ways through the everyday frustrations — recurring cavities, gum disease, treatment that doesn’t last — that lead some people to give up on dental care altogether.
Raised by two physicians, she developed an early appreciation for empathy, preparation, and patient advocacy. Outside the office she’s committed to community involvement and animal rescue.
“Shantall and I never set out to run the busiest office. We set out to run the best one we’re capable of — she’s a true partner, to me and to our patients.”— Dr. Matthew Dillon
The team behind your care
The team you’ll get to know
Everyone involved in your treatment knows your history, because everyone involved was there for it.
Manny
Dental Assistant & Technology Lead
A Coral Springs local and FIU grad, Manny is our resident tech wiz and the doctors’ right hand — chairside for your care and the person who keeps our technology running smoothly. He’s been a driving force in MSD’s growth from the very start. Catch him between appointments and he’ll happily talk South Florida sports with you.
Julianna
Patient Coordinator
Often the first voice new patients hear, Julianna coordinates appointments and treatment behind the scenes. She works off-site, but she makes sure every visit is scheduled, organized, and easy — right from your first call. Warm, unflappable, and endlessly organized, she has a gift for making people feel looked after before they ever sit in the chair.
Two doctors, one plan
Two dentists with complementary skillsets
The reason we practice together is simple: our skillsets are complementary. Dr. Dillon’s side is restorative and implant work — rebuilding teeth with significant structural damage or loss. Dr. Shantall’s is prevention, gum health, and alignment. On anything significant, we both weigh in before you decide, and you get the benefit of two different vantage points on the same mouth.
Outside the office
Real people, invested in this community
We think who your dentists are matters as much as where they trained — so here’s a little of what we care about when we’re not in the operatory.
Lifting up small business
Dr. Shantall enjoys connecting with and supporting fellow small business owners throughout Coral Springs and Parkland. Through local networking and community involvement, she has built relationships with entrepreneurs, professionals, and families who care deeply about strengthening the community they call home.
Animal rescue, every week
Dr. Dillon and Dr. Shantall volunteer weekly with the Humane Society of Broward County, caring for abandoned and homeless animals. It’s a cause close to both of them — and a good picture of how they show up in general: consistently, for those who need it.
Lacrosse, community & giving back
Dr. Dillon has played with the Parkland Buzzards, a North Broward men’s lacrosse league, since 2020. Competing alongside players younger and older has brought him good friends and a real sense of community outside of dentistry — a big part of what drew him to this area. Staying active matters to him personally, too: he believes in leading by example and embracing health, in the office and outside of it.
Off the field, he and his brother, Dr. David Dillon, collect and donate gear so youth who might be new to the game can pick up a stick without the cost getting in the way. A dental practice, he figures, should be part of the neighborhood — not just located in it.
