I am Dr. Nancy Shackleton, otherwise known as the leader of TEAM ORTHOSHACK! I have been the Orthodontist at Family Dental Center for 21 years. I became an orthodontist largely because of treatment I received as an adolescent. I loved the environment I was treated in, with happy energetic people creating a beautiful smile for me, and that is exactly what we try to give our patients today!! I was born and have been grown in Louisville, KY and attended Bellarmine University and the University of Louisville. Four years of dental school and a 2 year orthodontic residency there, completed 25 years of education! I have two daughters (graduate patients), one a dental hygiene student at WKU and the other graduating from high school this year and attending UL in the fall. My daughters and 2 female Yorkies keep my busy in my free time and make me smile daily. I love camping, gardening, dabbling in Triathlons and most anything outdoors. Many ask why I still commute from my 3 day practice in Louisville to Frankfort on Thursdays. That is easy! I value the patient and parent relationships I develop. I value the people that I work beside and are proud to call my teammates. I value the care that patients receive at Family Dental Center and I value the ability to give patients what they want and deserve: a beautiful smile and healthy functional bite.
