The theme of Gillum Dentistry is the relentless pursuit of excellence in comfort, quality, and customer service. I work at a comforting pace, one patient at a time. I place all permanent restorations myself to ensure consistency, optimal quality, comfort and patient satisfaction.

The conservative quality dentistry, Dr. Gillum delivers to his patients, is the kind of dentistry he would want to receive. His standard of care is exceptionally high. He keeps his dental clinic in Greenwood, IN up to date with the most proven patient centered technology. Dr. Gillum strives to know his patients as individuals, to know them personally and to not treat them like the next patient up. Gillum Dentistry nurtures each patient relationship by understanding what you value regarding your dental health and respecting you as a person.

The Doctor would prefer his patients not experience discomfort during their dental visit and has a genuine concern for patient comfort. His goal from day one has been to continually master the most advanced pain free anesthetic and treatment techniques. After all his mother demanded it, lol! Dr. Gillum utilized nitrous oxide sedation and offers it free of charge as part of his unique comfortable injection technique.

Dr. Gillum never cuts corners using inferior materials or discount lab work. His pledge is to provide his patients with the highest level of conservative care. After all, you only get one set of teeth. The tradition of excellence, Gillum Dentistry is known for, reflects the loyalty and quality of the staff they employ.

I graduated with honors from Indiana University School of Dentistry. I earned the prestigious Gold Foil Operators Award for excellence in operative dentistry. I was selected as a student instructor and continued as a part-time faculty member after graduation.

Continuing education combined with experience, skill, and the master of universal principles is the foundation of quality dentistry. I have completed hundreds of hours of coursework in Orthodontics, Six Month Smiles, TMJ Facial Pain, and Dental Sleep Medicine.

In addition to being a well-respected family dentist in Greenwood, Indiana, I am recognized as a local expert in medically prescribed treatments for sleep apnea. We provide an effective amazingly comfortable oral appliance alternative to CPAP for the treatment of Snoring and Sleep Apnea. Visit our Sleep Medicine website SnoreCrushers.com for details.

In 1992, I completed a three-year course in applied nutrition and was awarded the title of Professor of Applied Nutrition with the American Health Science Institute. I read a number of articles every week to keep abreast of the newest developments in nutrition, dentistry, and sleep medicine.

I believe that life is a gift we share in service to others. My office provides charitable dentistry to men in Wheeler Missions faith-based Alcohol and Drug Rehab Program. My staff selects a number of patients each year who cannot afford the treatments they need and provide them at nominal fee or free of charge. I am a member of Greenwood Toastmasters, an international organization dedicated to developing leadership and public speaking skills.

I reside in Center Grove with my wife, Shelley, and two of our six children. We have a lovely granddaughter named Kyla and a Maltese named Chloe. I am devoted to my family and spend my fair weather free time enjoying and improving our back yard getaway.

I enjoy moderate regular exercise, reading, nutrition, photography, landscaping, deck construction, and venturing to the island of St. Martin, which my wife and I visit each year to relax and renew with our island friends.

I have been a hygienist here at Gillum Dentistry for more than 10 years. I joined the team after graduating from Indiana University. Patients often tell me that I have a very pleasant, calming demeanor and am very good at making them feel comfortable while getting their dental cleanings done. I enjoy seeing people who have routinely been fearful toward visiting dentists in south Indianapolis, Indiana, become confident and comfortable in the dental chair. My husband, Alan, and I live in Whiteland with our two children. I enjoy being involved in social activities with my local church, spending time with my friends and family, and helping my kids in their 4-H programs.

I have been associated with Gillum Dentistry for almost 15 years, working as a chairside assistant. I have been here through some exciting times, such as moving and updating offices, adding additional staff, and keeping pace with technological advances in the field of dentistry. I have the knowledge and the experience to answer any question you may have concerning your treatment. My favorite part of dentistry is meeting new patients and learning about the latest treatment options available to them. Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Tim, and our two daughters.
