Ceramic implant placed to replace a missing tooth. Take a look at the gum! pink and healthy! We restored the implant with a zirconia crown designed by CeraCrown and made in our in house lab. https://www.ceraroot.com/

Ceramic Implant placed to replace a missing tooth. The gum loves CeraRoot implants so it grew over the implant. We needed to cut it with laser to uncover the margin and cement a zirconia crown. Now our patient is very happy chewing his favorite food!

 

Carries Removal and Restoration with Bioclear

This patient came from another office where he was told he needed a RCT (root canal treatment and a crown). Tooth was vital. I offered Selective Caries Removal and an injection molding technique (Bioclear matrices). I told him that we could watch the tooth and do vitality test every 6 months to be sure the tooth is alive. The procedure was done on 04/30/2018.

The patient has been at the office for periodic exams and cleanings and the tooth is alive and he can chew normally with it (he even wrote a review for us in Google). Notice the round contour of the restoration (filling). It’s easier to clean, which means bacteria won't stay there facilitating the restoration to last longer (using dental floss every night).

Mom and son were so happy with the result. Mom wrore this  after the appointment: “Dr Burke, he's so happy with his teeth. I took a closer look and your work is beautiful. The 2 -tone touch makes the tooth look so real and the front teeth are symetric! You were a lifesaver today."

 

Repair of Fractured Restoration with Bioclear

This patient came to our office with a fractured restoration wondering if she could avoid a crown.

The Bioclear restoration was done instead of a crown, costing the patient less money and saving more tooth surface.

Notice the round contour of the restoration. This is much easier for the patient to clean and this prevents bacteria proliferation, making the restoration last much longer. The Bioclear injection molding process and technique makes this possible.

 
 

WE RAISED HER VDO( vertical dimension of occlusion). Our patient shared with how raising her bite affected positively her health: 🥳
“For positive feedback, I never questioned your sincerity in trying to do the best job for me and in considering the health of the tooth in addition to the satisfaction of the patient. Raising my bite has alleviated my painful tmj and has improved my sleeping. I may not have told you this, but I had seen a cardiologist prior to this treatment. An ultrasound showed there was increased pressure in one part of my heart, which he said was usually due to sleep apnea. After my bite was raised, I had the same test done and he said the pressure was normal now. 🤠 So many connections with our mouth/teeth and overall health!”

“Thank YOU! You really make your patients feel special....and it's really great hearing about your life and your family while you are working.😊”

Ceramic Implant placed to replace a missing tooth. Gum grew over the implant healthy and strong and we cut it with laser to uncover the margin. We took digital impressions, CeraCrown designed the crown for us and we milled it in our office! Our patient is very happy because now she can chew her favorite food !

 

Bridge and Diastema Closure

This patient came to our office to fix his front teeth. We place a CeraRoot 12 to replace #10 and crowns to make his upper front teeth more even.

Our patient was getting a tooth fractured at the time and the rest were getting loose. We told her that her bite needed to get stable to have all the force more even and prevent more fractures. We crowned her teeth and now she can chew her favorite food and her TMJ feel happier! Even a earache she used to have, disappeared!
