Working with so many incredible people, especially my younger patients, keeps me young at heart. I watch each person mature and blossom through treatment and beyond. Whether Im seeing a shy child develop self-esteem, or an adult receive the smile theyve dreamed about for years, Im making a difference in the lives of people I care about. Orthodontics is professionally and personally rewarding.

I love the challenge of creating the best smile and face I can for each of my patients. Each person is unique. While they come to me with the same desired result, I have to find the ideal treatment approach for each persons specific needs. Its a pleasure to be continually thinking and using my knowledge and experience to help others.

Dr. Ripley has always pursued excellence. He was Senior Class President and graduated first in his class at Bedford-North Lawrence High School. At Indiana University, he graduated with Phi Beta Kappa honors. In Dental School, he graduated first in his class. He recieved his Masters in Orthodontics from one of the top programs in the country. Dr. Ripley brings his enthusiasm for excellenceevery day to the office.

Outside the practice, youll most often find me spending quality time with my family. My wife, Ruanne and I met at Indiana University and we have been married for 33years. We have two incredible adult children, Christina and Daniel. Christina is an English teacher at Fishers High School, and Daniel is in the finacial services business. Our third 'child', Charlie, is a Golden Retriever who is a handfuland keeps us on our toes.

We recognize that all of our patients are unique, and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our orthodontic team is committed to working with you and your family to create a positive, comfortable, and customized orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
