Craig Kohler
Craig Kohler is the founder and CEO of ONVI, a Chicago-area oral health technology company building what he calls the operating system for oral health. A dentist for four decades on Chicago's North Shore, he spent 20-plus years recording procedures through surgical microscopes and noticed a pattern: patients who could actually see inside their own mouths started taking better care of their teeth. He turned that observation into a product line - the video-enabled Prophix brush, the LED-lit MOTSY Light manual brush, and the HIPAA-compliant ONView platform - backed by 39 patents and a $25 million Series A raised in August 2025.
Nichole Garcia
Nichole Garcia is Co-Founder and President of OrthoFX, the doctor-delivered clear aligner startup she built with two former Invisalign executives. With a BS in Biochemistry from UCLA, an MBA from Pepperdine, and a diploma from Oxford, she spent two decades running global divisions at Philips Oral Care and Align Technology before co-founding OrthoFX in 2017. The company raised $17M total - including a $13M Series A led by SignalFire in 2020 - to commercialize a proprietary FXTetra polymer that delivers 50% faster treatment, paired with an AI-powered remote monitoring platform called FXOnTrack.
