Living in Fishers and growing up at 56th Street andAllisonville Road, Sauter remembers when Fishers had one stoplight,no mail delivery and a person could walk down 116th Streetsafely.

"I was involved in the town community planning.There were four of us that started the present-day Fishers Chamberof Commerce. We called ourselves Fishers Unified Businesses orsomething. Now there are hundreds of members," Sauter said.

When Sauter started, teeth whitening was not done.Today, he does a full range of restorations and cosmetic dentistry,including whitening, tooth-colored fillings, porcelain crowns andveneers.

The dentist office also makes charitable donationsto a variety of community organizations and local school bands.During National Children's Dental Health month in February, Sauterand Ryan visit local schools to promote dental health to childrenin first through third grades.

Sauter has raised four children, ages 17-26, whohave all played youth sports. He coached the youth sports teams foryears but now sponsors local teams.

"It is fun to watch the kids grow up. Moms bringkids in car seats and now they are in high school. It is a greatarea to raise kids and we feel like part of their families," Sautersaid.

A The latest revolutionary concept involvesproviding patients with fully functional teeth on dental implantsin a single procedure that lasts about an hour. I have partneredwith Dr. John Porter, an oral surgeon in Castleton, to provide thistechnology. The process starts with a CT scan of the patient'sjawbone. The scan provides a 3-D model of the jawbone, which canthen be used in virtual-reality software to plan the implantplacement and prosthesis.

After selection of the color and shape of teeth, aone-hour appointment is made with Dr. Porter where four to siximplants are placed under local anesthesia. The computer-guidedsurgery is done with no need for sutures. In less than an hour, thepatient has a full set of teeth permanently fixed to the implants.The teeth are functional and the patient is able to resume normalactivity the next day. This new technology is simply amazing.

A I take continuing education courses, almost 80hours a year. I'm involved in the Indianapolis Study Club, which is20-25 dentists from the northeast side. We meet once a month andhave speakers. Dental schools have programs and we go to nationalconventions.
