Description

In this episode of the Chief Psycho Podcast, we sit down with the unstoppable Sonya Dunbar, better known as The Geriatric Toothfairy. With over 30 years of experience in dentistry, Sonya’s career spans clinical work, entrepreneurship, public speaking, and advocacy—particularly for elder oral health and access to care.

Sonya opens up about her journey from Navy Veteran to nationally recognized thought leader, sharing how she built Mobile Dental Xpress, co-founded the National Mobile & Teledentistry Conference, and became a powerful voice for aging populations in dentistry.

We go deep on:

  • The barriers to oral health in long-term care
  • What it means to build mission-driven businesses
  • How mindset, movement, and mentorship are at the core of sustainable leadership
  • And what keeps her “rooted in purpose” despite every obstacle

This is more than a career conversation—it’s a masterclass in living boldly and serving fully.
