He credits Dr. Hal Huggins and Dr. Blanche Grube as his mentors in the field of biological dentistry.

Dr.Grieco is also SMART certified by the IAOMT. He is also a member of the Weston Price Foundation and the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD). Biological dentistry has become Dr. Grieco’s passion.
