Get to know
Dr. Chad Brown, DDS
For Dr. Chad Brown, dentistry is more than a profession, it’s a craft that blends science, artistry, and lifelong learning. With 28 years of experience and over 100 hours of continuing education annually, Dr. Brown is passionate about helping patients achieve healthy, beautiful smiles they can feel proud of. As a graduate of Creighton University School of Dentistry and an original member of the Chicago Study Club, he’s always sharpening his skills.
Dr. Brown's dedication goes beyond high-level training. He designs all of his restorations in Exocad, offering patients fully customized outcomes and greater accuracy. His investment in dental photography and office technology allows him to show, not just tell, how their smiles are progressing.
A Minnesota native, Dr. Brown grew up at his family’s fishing resort, where he learned the value of hospitality and hands-on problem-solving. A self-starter at heart, he founded his own dental office in Sheldon after years of commuting and planning, driven by a vision to deliver personalized care in a space that felt true to him.
You'll often find Dr. Brown doing just about everything, from designing a smile makeover to cracking a joke with his team or patients. His love of woodworking even finds its way into the office, quite literally, through handmade furniture in the lobby. And when he’s not in the operatories, you might catch him on the golf course, traveling, or behind a drum kit playing in a local rock band.
Whether you're looking for long-term care or a transformational cosmetic solution, Dr. Brown combines technical expertise with a personal, relaxed approach that puts patients at ease while delivering top-tier results.

3D printing capabilities
By integrating 3D printing into our workflow, we’re able to streamline processes and create accurate models for orthodontic, cosmetic, and restorative procedures. It’s part of how we maintain control, enhance results, and avoid unnecessary delays.
