Matthew Sheldon, DMD

Meet Dr. Sheldon

As the son of a dentist, I watched from a young age as my father helped improve his patients’ lives and exuded joy in everything he did. Now as a dentist myself, I am excited about the ability to treat a wide range of people, from little ones to their great-grandparents. I appreciate the confidence my patients have in me to treat them and their families. Every patient is different and every case is different; this is one of the most exciting parts about being a dentist. All of my patients are unique and it is my goal to treat them in the best way possible.

Being a dentist is a wonderful responsibility to have. I love helping people, enhancing their smiles, giving them more confidence, and meeting their oral healthcare needs. I’m honored to be back in Melbourne, where I was born and raised, to help and care for my patients.

Education and Continuing Education

• Bachelor of Health Science — University of Florida
• Doctorate of Dental Medicine — Tufts University
• Certificate in Advanced Education in General Dentistry — Texas A&M Health Science Center

As staying up-to-date on the latest technology and treatment options in dentistry is a vital aspect of my career, I am committed to continuing my education to provide the most effective and minimally-invasive dental care possible. Additionally, I am a member of numerous professional affiliations, including the American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, and Florida Dental Association, which provide me with many opportunities to further my knowledge in the field.

Outside the Office

I recently moved back to my hometown of Melbourne after completing my formal education. My wife, Jenifer, is also our office manager, and I feel lucky to have her around both at home and at work. I’m a true family man who loves to be around my wife, parents, siblings, and in-laws, but when I get the chance, I’m always up for playing a game of tennis or golf or watching my favorite sports teams.
