Dentistry & Mental Health
Mélissa-Sue brings a uniquely personal and professionally grounded message to the dental community—because she’s lived it from the inside. As a registered dental hygienist, she understands the pace, pressure, and perfectionism that can quietly wear on providers and teams, even while everything looks “fine” on the outside. After losing her husband—a dentist who battled depression and suicidal ideation—she made it her mission to help change the way our industry talks about mental health, support, and survival.
Drawing from her book,
The Truth Behind the Smiles, Mélissa-Sue speaks to national dental groups and conventions with a message that is honest, compassionate, and deeply human. Her keynotes create space for awareness, conversation, and real culture change—so dental professionals feel less alone, leaders feel better equipped, and teams walk away with hope and practical next steps.
