Gregory K. Tuttle considers himself a maverick dentist, valuing efficiency and quality. Tuttle has been practicing dentistry for more than 30 years, and while some people tend to burn out, Tuttle is now more active than ever in his dental career, having managed dental offices in California and Utah. Tuttle has remained passionate about the industry since his graduation from the University of Nebraska in 1990.
In 2003, Tuttle encountered a tough-to-numb tooth, and he found a way to penetrate the mandibular buccal plate without drills, ports or sleeves, using a 30-gauge needle. His innovative technique led to a complete change in the way he approached local anesthesia, and patients raved about not having a numb lip or tongue. With more than 15 years of clinical success, Tuttle revealed his findings in the TuttleNumbNow protocol and training system. Dr. Tuttle teaches dentists his numbing technique through a series of online training videos and in speaking engagements, and his technique was most recently referenced in latest volume of the Handbook for Local Anesthesia. TuttleNumbNow dentists are now in all 50 states and span more than 24 countries.
Tuttle is the father of five children and papa to fourteen grandchildren, and he has been married to his wife for more than 35 years. Tuttle enjoys speaking to dentists all across the country and witnessing how TuttleNumbNow helps them renew their passion and love of dentistry.
