CASE STUDY
Dr. Antoinette Liles
Antoinette Liles is the founder of Mint Dental, a new state-of-the-art dental office located in Pearl, Mississippi, and Mentorship, a mentorship/scholarship program supporting pre-dental HBCU students from Mississippi by providing them scholarships.
A Brief Background
Overview
Dr. Antoinette is also a TV star, appearing in Oprah Winfrey Network’s reality TV series "Belle Collective," which follows the lives of five incredible businesswomen working together to redevelop their historic district.
Antoinette’s life journey inspires women who aspire to achieve what they deserve despite the barriers that limit them. Raised in Saginaw, Michigan, by a mother who earned just above the poverty line to qualify for government assistance, she lived in Section 8 housing. She moved every year during elementary school until her father rescued her from her abusive mother’s house.
She remained committed to her goals despite the hardships catalyzed by the pandemic. Antoinette’s perseverance and dedication amidst uncertainties and sadness led her to finally execute the business plan she had been tirelessly working on—a new state-of-the-art dental office in Pearl, Mississippi, aptly named Mint Dental: “Where Art Meets Science.” It was truly Mint to be.
In 2021, Antoinette was recognized in the Top 50 Leading Business Women by Mississippi Business Journal. Additionally, she starred in Oprah Winfrey Network’s reality TV series "Belle Collective," portraying the lives of five women entrepreneurs from Mississippi working together to redevelop their district.
