Founder's Story
Dr. Malaika Simone Thomas is a dentist, entrepreneur, author, and oral health innovator whose journey began in a small town in Florida and evolved into a career defined by resilience, creativity, and purpose. Raised by a single mother in housing projects, Dr. Thomas’s life changed at the age of eight after a traumatic playground injury severely damaged her front teeth. The months spent in dental chairs sparked a lifelong fascination with dentistry—and a deep empathy for patients navigating fear, pain, and vulnerability. That early experience would later shape her passion for emergency dental care and smile restoration.
Despite being told her injury might limit her future, Dr. Thomas excelled academically and creatively. A gifted clarinetist, award-winning student, and community leader, she earned an academic scholarship to Florida A&M University before completing her undergraduate degree in Biology at the University of North Florida. She went on to graduate from Howard University College of Dentistry, launching a career rooted in service and excellence.
Dr. Thomas worked as a general dentist providing care through the U.S. Army DENTAC for eleven years, followed by extensive experience in pediatric dentistry, emergency care, and locum tenens dentistry—working in over 150 dental offices across 12 years. Her breadth of experience has given her rare insight into patient needs, practice operations, and gaps in oral healthcare delivery.
Parallel to her clinical career, Dr. Thomas cultivated a powerful entrepreneurial path. She has owned a full-service catering business, worked in sales and multi-level marketing for over 10 years across telecom, health and wellness, and travel, and expressed her creativity through modeling, writing, and design. She is the author of a children’s book inspired by her early life, as well as a vegan cookbook.
In 2012, Dr. Thomas launched Revive, an at-home teeth whitening system born from her own dental school experience—when specialists debated how to address the teeth discoloration that resulted from her childhood injury. Choosing innovation over conformity, she developed a professional-grade, semi-custom whitening system that allowed clients to safely whiten at home. With Revive, Dr. Thomas made history as the first African American dentist to own, brand, and market a teeth-whitening company. That same year, she was honored with Startup Business of the Year by a Forbes-recognized organization, Stiletto Women in Business.
Six years later, she expanded Revive into a part-time teeth whitening spa. During the COVID-19 pandemic, after being laid off from employed clinical work, she pivoted once again—opening an emergency dental clinic adjacent to the spa. What began as a solution during crisis evolved into a larger dental practice, where she remains in active practice today, specializing in emergency dentistry and smile makeovers.
Today, Dr. Thomas is preparing to launch a fluoride-free oral care wellness brand, driven by her belief that patients deserve informed choice in their oral health products. Her mission is to bridge the gap between traditional dentistry and holistic oral wellness—without sacrificing clinical integrity.
At the intersection of science, creativity, and entrepreneurship, Dr. Malaika Simone Thomas continues to redefine what it means to be a modern dentist.
