How I Feel About Being a Dentistâ€. Lee might truly be described as a both an innovator and a maverick in the field of Periodontics, perpetually seeking truth over accepted belief through contemporary scientific research. When found, he then effectively implements those new treatment concepts that will best benefit his patients, into his armamentarium of available therapies.
“This book is a synthesis of Lee’s lifetime work effort. It reflects his growth, both as a human being as well as a clinical periodontist. The book is a valuable resource for existing and potential patients, dental professionals, periodontal residents and dental students. Although the content is technically accurate and timely, it has been written so personally that it provides its readers with an accurate assessment of the diverse therapeutic activities a clinical periodontist is involved in on a daily basis.â€

Dr. Lee Sheldon taught me some amazing clinical techniques while I was completing my residency at the University of Florida, where he was an associate clinical professor. I admire Dr. Sheldon for his holistic approach to the treatment of periodontal disease; I believe this clinical approach truly puts the needs of patients first – and of course, it works! He is an outstanding clinician and a true genius in the field of periodontics.

As a colleague and friend I am happy to endorse Dr. Lee Sheldon in his efforts to provide a first class treatment to the vast array of patients who seek his care. While I am not a patient, I have for many years up to today regarded Lee as a Mentor and a friend. He is kind, pleasant and is committed to bringing out the best in others.
“Lee epitomizes professionalism and innovation and is easy to work with because of his compassion and friendliness. I wish him continued success with Solid Bite. If he treats his patients the same way he treats his mentees then Florida will be filled with happy folks.â€

Hello Folks, I am a dentist. Several years ago, I chose to travel to – and be cared for by – Dr. Lee Sheldon for my periodontal treatment. Dr. Sheldon is highly educated. He has continued to pursue sophisticated training courses over the years beyond the training required by his DDS degree and his specialty training in periodontics. Dr. Sheldon and his staff are welcoming, thorough and professional.
They start with a complete exam including assessing the patient’s presenting condition and measuring pocket depths. Of course, presumably all periodontists measure pocket depths, but not all general dentists do, despite the fact that they should. Pocket depth can give a great deal of information about the health of your tissues and therefore the viability of your remaining bone to support your teeth. Dr. Sheldon is thorough and competent, but he does not over-diagnose or over-treat. He will tell you what you need and not create extra work or trauma.
“What is special in addition is that Dr. Sheldon also has a great sense of humor. I like that because, when I can laugh, I can feel more at ease. Don’t think this means that Dr. Sheldon will take your work lightly. He won’t. But he is easy to talk to and to laugh with – when appropriate – and that can make a could-be-anxiety-producing situation a whole lot more comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Sheldon and would look forward to having my next surgery with him if I ever need to have such again. He is also very conscientious in following through to make sure you are okay after the surgery. I am glad to recommend Dr. Lee Sheldon for your periodontal treatment.â€

I have known Dr. Lee Sheldon for close to 10 years. Our relationship began at the University of Florida while I was completing my residency in Periodontics. Dr. Sheldon was one of my clinical instructors. I have always had the greatest admiration for Dr. Sheldon’s clinical skills. In addition, his sincere and compassionate demeanor for his patients and colleagues set him apart. On numerous occasions, Dr. Sheldon has assisted me with various clinical and nonclinical matters.
“Lastly, I have had the honor of being a member of a blog that Dr. Sheldon and I participate with. His contributions are greatly respected and appreciated by myself and many other periodontists and oral surgeons. I am grateful for Dr. Sheldon’s invaluable wisdom and friendship.â€

Dr. Sheldon and his team treat patients with unsurpassed customer service that will make you feel truly cared for. I am always confident they utilize not only the latest in periodontal advances and technology but also will have a complete understanding about how these advances can increase patient’s experiences and outcomes.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Lee Sheldon for over 20 years and have been working with him professionally since I began my practice in Brevard county over 5 years ago. In that time we have collaborated on numerous therapies for our patients and I can say that Dr. Sheldon delivers quality and compassion to each and every one of them. He has taken the time to further his knowledge and understanding to utilize the most current state of the art concepts in dentistry and this combined with his decades of experience make him a tremendous resource to not only patients but other dentists such as myself.
“Joint treatment of patients with Dr. Sheldon has been efficient, our communication is easy, and my patients tell me every time just “how nice Dr. Sheldon is…â€

Dr. Lee Sheldon is one of the most talented periodontists I’ve ever observed. I have done numerous implant cases with him and his implant placement techniques are second to none. His vast experience allows him to make the best clinical decisions regarding treatment.
“He is always up to date on the latest trends and materials. He also uses high tech in office scanning equipment to confirm the implants are placed in the correct position, something I rarely see elsewhere. If I ever personally need an implant placed, I already know who I’m going to!”
