LINCOLN, NELocal dentist and author Dr. Addison Killeen is proud to be selected by award-winning Incisal Edge magazine as one of their 40 Under 40 Top Dentists in America for 2025. This prestigious honor, now in its fifteenth year, is based on nominations from dentists’ colleagues and peers. They are then carefully evaluated by an independent panel of judges, including former honorees, to select the finalists.

“With approximately 200,000 licensed dentists across the U.S., earning a spot in our 40 Under 40 doesn’t just place honorees in the top 1%—it heralds their entry into the most exceptional tier of that elite group,” said Incisal Edge magazine’s editor, Edward Kobesky. “Every year, our honorees represent the profession’s most passionate, forward-thinking and clinically outstanding individuals, and this year’s class stands out as one of the most dynamic and far-reaching we’ve ever recognized.”

“I’m humbled simply to have been nominated, let alone selected, as one of the 40 Under 40 young dentists in America,” said Dr. Killeen. “I owe so much of my continued success to my educators, mentors, and family, as well as my dedicated team at Capital Dental for all they do.” 

Dr. Killeen’s most recent book, The Shift, has been a top seller on Amazon as they struggle to keep up with demand. It is a book that empowers leaders to shift from being overwhelmed to focusing on what matters most. This book is the latest in a series of 11 manuals Dr. Killeen has authored to empower other dentists in all areas of growing a practice. His other books include the perennial best-seller By The Numbers, as well as others in the manual series that include textbook-size step-by-step manuals around operations, startups, acquisitions, associate dentists, marketing, front office operations, dental assistants, dental financial coordinators, and supply ordering.

Incisal Edge magazine is distributed in print to over 107,000 intellectually curious, business-minded and clinically driven dentists and dental professionals. The multiple award-winning print and digital media property is considered dentistry’s premier destination for peer-to-peer insights, strategies and thought leadership, as well as the leading authority on ranking dentistry’s most successful and influential individuals.
