One bite. That is all it took for an old metal filling to finally crack this tooth. 💥

We see this often. Over time, large amalgam fillings can act like a wedge inside the tooth. Eventually, the pressure becomes too much while eating, and a cusp simply snaps off.

In traditional dentistry, a fracture of this size is usually treated as a catastrophic failure requiring a full crown. The remaining healthy structure gets ground down just to fit a cap over the damage.

But with Biomimetic Dentistry, we look for the conservative route.

❌ Traditional: Grind it down.
✅ Biomimetic: Build it up.

The patient elected to move forward with an Onlay. This allows us to replace only the broken cusp while bonding the rest of the tooth back together. We mimic nature rather than amputating it.

It takes a little more precision to execute, but saving your natural tooth structure is the ultimate goal.

The BCCD family is always growing! 👶✨

Our morning huddle looked a little different today. Before we dove into the schedule, we got to celebrate Kacey and her little one on the way.

It’s important to take the time to celebrate the people we work with at The Burkitt Center. We talk a lot about "biological health," and community is a huge part of that ecosystem. We love that our team operates as a family that celebrates each other’s milestones.

Drop a congratulations for Kacey below! 👇

A moment of appreciation for the depth of our team. 🌟

This photo captures a beautiful balance. In the background, you see Narah handling the daily operations of the practice. But in the foreground is a piece of her heart that we recently discovered.

Years ago, Narah wrote and published a children’s book designed to help kids navigate the difficult journey of losing a family member. It is a profound and tender story, and learning this about her makes perfect sense to us.

We often talk about "clinical excellence," but compassion is just as important. Knowing that the person greeting you at the front desk has this kind of empathy and understanding for the human experience makes us incredibly proud to call her a colleague, and friend.

Drop your shoulders. Remove your tongue from between your teeth. Take a deep breath. 🌬️

Your teeth should strictly touch when you are chewing and never when you are resting. If you found yourself clenching as you read this, take a moment to reset.

Chronic jaw tension is rarely just about “stress.” It is often a red flag for a compromised airway or a nervous system stuck in fight or flight.

We often dismiss a clenched jaw as a bad habit, but in biological dentistry, we view it as a signal. 🧠

• It’s often about Airway Health. Many people who struggle with bruxism (grinding) don’t realize their body is actually trying to open up a collapsing airway while they sleep. If you can’t breathe deeply, your jaw compensates.

• It’s a Nervous System check. When your TMJ is constantly engaged, it sends distress signals to your brain. This keeps your body in a sympathetic state, preventing the deep rest and recovery you need.

• It requires a Root Cause approach. A traditional approach might just give you a night guard to protect the enamel. A biological dentist asks why you are grinding in the first place—looking at everything from mineral balance to nasal breathing. 🌿

Your mouth is the gateway to your total health. Stop treating the symptom and start listening to the signal.

We see this situation a lot. The older filling starts pulling away from the tooth and creates a gap. Once we got in there, the crack was evident and way deeper than we expected 🦷

We intervened right on time.

We used biomimetic protocols to bond the tooth back together and mimic its natural mechanics. This decreases the chances of that crack becoming a bigger problem. We managed to save the natural structure and avoid a root canal or implant in the future 🌿 It feels good to keep the tooth vital.

If you aren't sure about a treatment plan you've been given and want to see if there is a more conservative option, we’d love to take a look.

When a filling fails, it doesn’t always need a crown. Sometimes the smarter move is to strengthen what’s already there.

This patient wanted something stronger but more conservative than a traditional crown, so we created a custom inlay milled in house to restore strength while preserving healthy enamel.

That’s the heart of biomimetic dentistry—working with your natural tooth instead of cutting it down. It’s the future because it keeps more of you intact, lasts longer, and helps prevent bigger problems later.

Relax, you’re in good hands.

We’ve started documenting more of our biomimetic cases with clean, detailed photos from real treatments.

This patient came in with a broken filling and decay underneath. Instead of removing more healthy tooth for a crown, we rebuilt the tooth using biomimetic techniques that preserve strength and restore what’s needed.

Biomimetic dentistry is one of our core pillars at The Burkitt Center. It’s the future of dentistry— care that protects, rebuilds, and lasts.

Relax, you’re in good hands.
Relax, it’s The Burkitt Center.

Things have settled back into rhythm here at The Burkitt Center after the flood.

The days have been full, steady, and meaningful.

They remind us why we love what we do. It feels good to be back in flow, taking care of our patients and our people.

Some of the team dressed up for Halloween on Thursday (we’re closed Fridays, don’t judge).

The ears? Committed.
The dogs? Professionals.

If you’re diving into the candy stash this weekend, at least follow it up with some water. And if you get too carried away… give us a call on Monday. 😏

Biological Dentistry isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing it better.
Better materials. Greater precision. Extra care.

Because your body deserves dentistry built around your biology.
We’ll be sharing more of our biomimetic treatments soon, and we can’t wait to show you what that really looks like.

🦷 Relax, it’s The Burkitt Center.

This pursuit begins with a state-of-the-art dental office and experienced staff and doesn't end until the patient is satisfied. Our team of skilled and compassionate staff have made it our goal to make our patients comfortable, and we understand the importance of convenience and overall satisfaction, which is why we constructed a surgical suite in the summer of 2015 for IV sedation dentistry. Sedation dentistry is an invaluable resource that provides patients with a safe, effecitve, and comfortable avenue of treatment without anxiety. Dr. Tom and Dr. Will have more than three decades of combined experience, and along with the most advanced surgical equipment and techniques, including the use of our brand new 3D cone beam xray for early detection and overall health awareness, we provide a level of quality care that is unbeatable.
