Meet the Founder & CEO

Elite Dental Systems is led by its Founder and CEO, Shelbey Arevalo, known throughout the dental industry as The Dental Detective™.

As a nationally recognized dental billing expert (CDBS, CDC) and board-certified patient advocate (BCPA), Shelbey is known for translating complex insurance rules into clear, compliant, and ethical revenue systems for dental practices. Her work spans dental and medical billing, revenue cycle management, and patient financial operations—bringing practical insight and accountability to every system Elite Dental Systems builds.
