2019 Women in Business: Terri Hubbard, DMD

Author: Special to CH2

Coastal Pediatric Dentistry

What Inspired you to start your business?
I was always scared of the dentist as a child, and I constantly thought to myself, There has to be a better way. So, I hope that is what I’m doing with my patients—making going to the dentist fun and enjoyable for every child who enters my practice.

How long have you been in business?
Thirteen years.

What advice would you give your children about running a successful business?
This will come off as a cliché but, stay in school! Shadow as much as you can in your field of interest and see all the aspects of that field that you can. Nothing is better than hands-on experience.

What is a day like in your heels?
I make people smile and have beautiful smiles. I clean children’s teeth and remove sugar bugs from their teeth; nobody wants a mouth with sugar bugs!

On those impossible days, what motivates you to keep going?
I love knowing that what I’m doing has the power to take a frightened child, restore them to good dental health, and make going to the dentist a positive experience.

About Us

In September of 2006, Celebrate Hilton Head (CH2) burst onto the scene with a fresh perspective on Hilton Head Island, Bluffton and the surrounding Low Country. At the helm was a team of young women (all under 30!) with no experience whatsoever in the publishing industry. The first year they made up the rules as they went along. CH2 (and CB2 – Celebrate Bluffton and Beyond), has evolved into a well-respected publication with over 150 advertisers and a distribution to over 47,000 locals and visitors each month.

Content ranges from Interesting Islander profiles and arts and entertainment pieces to food and wine topics and Hilton Head and Bluffton Business Profiles. CH2’s Bachelor of the Year Contest has blossomed into a greatly anticipated media event every year with viral marketing (i.e., Facebook, Twitter) contributing to the annual readership of those issues pertaining to the contest and over 700 people attending the Bachelor of the Year party held every October held at a local Hilton Head or Bluffton entertainment spot.

CH2 strives to give back to the community in which they have been so successful by sponsoring charitable events in both Hilton Head Island and Bluffton (Bluffton’s MayFest, put on by the Bluffton Rotary), donating editorial space to worthy organizations (Bold Strokes, Volunteers in Medicine, March of Dimes), and making the Hilton Head Island Rec Center the recipient of monies raised in conjunction with the Bachelor of the Year Contest.
