About DNTL 25

DNTL 25 was created to provide a more personalized approach to dental practice consulting and leadership coaching — one built on real-world experience, direct collaboration, and intentional strategy. Rather than a large consulting agency where clients are passed between teams, I work one-on-one with dentists and leadership teams to understand the unique systems, culture, and goals behind every practice.

Nannette Thorman, founder of DNTL 25 and dental practice consultant based in Minneapolis.

My career in dentistry is truly a history in the making.

With over 35 years of experience in dental practice management, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside—and helping lead—highly successful dental practices at every stage of growth. My journey began on the front lines as a patient coordinator, where I learned firsthand the importance of trust, communication, and exceptional patient experience. From there, my career steadily evolved through leadership roles, ultimately serving as Chief Operating Officer within a thriving dental practice.

Beyond the practice walls, I spent 11 years as a Program Advisor for a national patient financing company, partnering with dental teams to strengthen case acceptance, improve financial systems, and create sustainable growth strategies.

I am also proud to be the Co-Founder and President of a Dental Administrators Study Club in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, a role I held for more than 11 years. This experience allowed me to mentor, collaborate, and elevate fellow dental leaders through shared knowledge, accountability, and real-world problem solving.

Today, as Founder and CEO of DNTL 25, I bring this full-spectrum perspective to every practice I serve. I understand dentistry from the inside out—from patients and teams to systems, leadership, and long-term vision. My work is grounded in proven experience, thoughtful strategy, and a deep respect for the people who make dental practices exceptional.

DNTL 25 exists to help practices move with intention, clarity, and confidence toward their next level of excellence.

Why DNTL 25?

DNTL 25 was created to provide a more personalized approach to dental practice consulting and leadership coaching — one built on real-world experience, direct collaboration, and intentional strategy. Rather than a large consulting agency where clients are passed between teams, I work one-on-one with dentists and leadership teams to understand the unique systems, culture, and goals behind every practice.

Each engagement is structured to support sustainable dental practice growth, combining operational insight with practical leadership development. My work focuses on helping practices strengthen performance, improve alignment, and create clarity around the decisions that shape long-term success.


At DNTL 25, consulting isn’t about delivering generic templates or one-size-fits-all programs. It’s about building a trusted partnership — offering thoughtful guidance, honest perspective, and strategic support designed specifically for your practice. By keeping the process personal and collaborative, I help dental leaders move forward with confidence while creating systems that truly work.
