Background and Credentials

Dr. Green graduated from IU Dental School in 1972. He enlisted in the US Army Dental Corps while in school and was stationed in Okinawa for 3 years — just missing Vietnam War by one month. Dr. Green taught at IU Dental school from 1975 to 1980 while also practicing evenings in Brownsburg. In 1980 he started his practice full time in Frankfort and performed traditional dentistry until 1993 when a patient, Wayne Cox, showed him the dangers of mercury. Thus he began his present day ‘mercury free-mercury safe’ practice, which has evolved into today's biological/holistic care with alternative and biocompatible services as a replacement for contemporary dental care.

Dr. Green is trained and certified by the IAOMT in proper removal techniques of amalgam fillings. He is opposed to water fluoridation and routine treatment of children with topical fluoride. Dr. Green also believes root canals can have far-reaching health effects upon the body and must be monitored closely if you have one; if you have a choice, don't get a root canal. Periodontal care is observed closely for this same reason. His approach has always been biological with an emphasis on how the mouth relates to the whole body. Dr. Green is also a licensed acupuncturist so he understands the body's 'chi' pathways and effects that toxic materials can have on whole body health.

Dr. Green has been treating temporomandibular joint problems since 1990. Dr. Green and Dr. Lau have developed a highly successful system for those who suffer from different kinds of craniomandibular disorders. Their patients often tell them how life altering it is to finally be pain free. Treatment for TMJ problems are now performed at Dr. Lau’s Pendleton office.

I started work for Dr. Green in June 2013. I have a college degree in accounting, four wonderful children ranging in age from 11 to 23. I also have a 2 year old granddaughter.

My job title is office manager but I also assist Dr. Green as necessary. I am responsible for billing, insurance, scheduling, and I will be your main contact when you call in with questions.

In the first 2 years I have worked with Dr. Green, I have acquired my dental radiology license, learned to assist, and many things about how our teeth act as circuit breakers for the energy flowing through our body, and thus they can lead to chronic disease in other organ systems. I enjoy my job very much and look forward to learning more each day.

I'm Dr. Green's assistant. I've been with the practice since 2012, and I love meeting patients and hearing their stories. When I meet you I will ask lots of questions, and answer your questions as well. I will also take any necessary X-rays and assist Dr. Green with your procedures. While working here I have learned so much about holistic concepts and healthy living that I have changed my own family's lifestyle quite a bit, and I'm always excited to learn more! I'm married with three kids; they are in grade school, high school, and college, so our house is always busy. I've found that healthy changes can be worked into any lifestyle or budget. We always encourage our patients to educate themselves and take charge of their personal health, and I try to do the same.

I am Dr Green's hygienist. I have been working here since May 2016. I received my degree from Indiana University in 1970 and have been working as a hygienist ever since.

Our practice has a chemical free environment. Not only are your cleanings fluoride free but we also have other great procedures I routinely use for periodontal therapy: such as ozone, categorizing bacteria with a microscope, and waterpiking with povidone-iodine. X-rays are taken as safely as possible and kept at a minimum. Everything I use is safe to ingest. We consider the whole body, not just the teeth.

I'm active in my church and when I'm not working I enjoy reading, bridge club, and golf league. I am married and we have two adopted sons, a daughter in-law and two grand daughters.
