Dr. John Merrill was raised in Michigan as the youngest of five children. His father was a chemical engineer who became a full-time Methodist minister in his 30s.

She even wrote much of today’s social work training curriculum for the state of Michigan.
Dr. Merrill is a graduate of Western Michigan University and the University of Michigan, which was voted the #1 dental school worldwide in 2019. He practiced for 25 years in the northern lakeside community of Charlevoix, MI where he was devoted to his patients, his church, and his five children: three of which are adopted.
He, his wife Natalie, and six of their eight children moved to North Carolina in 2008 where Dr. Merrill was hired as medical director for Carolinas Center for Oral Health and to head up a multi-specialty dental practice as part of the Carolinas Healthcare System.
He served there for over five years, treating patients and leading their organization in the highest patient satisfaction scores. He is a nationally recognized clinician treating many dentists as patients throughout his career.
Dr. Merrill truly loves being a Huntersville cosmetic dentist and a devoted husband, father, and grandfather.
