Born in Jackson, TN, Dr. Baron Grutter grew up in Rockford, MI, a suburb of Grand Rapids.
For undergrad, Baron attended Graceland University and received his degree in Mathematics and Chemistry. He had never really given much thought to dentistry as a profession; but, during the summer between his sophomore and junior year of undergrad, he had a conversation with a second year dental student that opened Baron’s eyes. For his dental degree he attended the University of Missouri in Kansas City.
He purchased his practice in 2011, Happy Rock Dental. He has since focused it around digital dentistry, particularly in the areas of Cosmetics, Implantology, and Orthodontics.
He have been involved with software testing and development in dentistry for many years, starting with Sirona’s CEREC Chairside Milling. Currently, he has the privilege of acting as Project Manager of BlueSkyBio’s Orthodontic Department. He also provide technical feedback to a number of companies to help them provide better dental products.
Dr. Grutter lives with his beautiful bride, Grace, and three amazing children: Bowen, Nella, and Corwin. You can learn more about their daughter Nella and her fight against Type 1 Spinal Muscular atrophy at Facebook.com/PrayersForNella.
In Baron’s free time, he squeezes in some snow/water skiing, snowboarding, running, and CrossFit. When not exploring new ways to improve work, he tries to make the most of his family time enjoying great TV and movies.
