Dr. Brunner is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontics and Implant Surgery. Dr. Mark Brunner graduated from Grace College in Warsaw, IN. He met his wife, Stephanie and then went to The Ohio State University College of Dentistry for his DDS. During his time at OSU, he was chosen for a Dental Implant Fellowship which sparked his interest in surgery. Dr. Brunner then earned a MS in Oral Biology and Certificate of Periodontology at Medical College of Virginia.

After 14 years of private practice in Atlanta, GA, Dr. Brunner started full- time teaching full-time and quickly became the Director of the Postdoctoral Periodontics Residency at Augusta University, Dental College of Georgia. An opportunity came up to help start a new Residency Program at Marquette University, so a move to Milwaukee, WI was the next step. Finally, they decided it was time to settle in a familiar area, close family. So, Mark and Stephanie moved back to Northern Indiana where the story all began 25 years earlier. They enjoy time with family and tinkering with motorcycles and sports cars.
