To be honest, seeing reviews like this is the best part of our job.

When a patient drives two hours to see us because our "concern for mental health is a step above," it confirms exactly why we are here.

We believe that true healing is impossible without a regulated nervous system. How are we supposed to help you heal if you aren't even relaxed?

That is where The Comfort Menu comes in.

This isn't just a list of nice perks. We designed this complimentary protocol to lower cortisol and ensure your visit feels more like a restoration and less like a medical procedure. Every patient has access to these tools to help them find their calm.

The Menu Includes:

🎧 Noise Cancelling Headphones Block out the sounds of the clinical environment entirely. You can listen to your own music or simply enjoy the silence.

🌫️ Weighted Blankets Deep pressure stimulation helps calm the nervous system immediately. It provides a sense of grounding that many patients find essential for feeling safe in the chair.

🐕 Therapy Dogs There is no medication quite like the presence of a calm animal. Our therapy dogs are available to sit with you during your appointment, providing a grounding, non-judgmental presence that instantly lowers heart rate and anxiety.

🧣 Warm Towels We finish every appointment with a hot towel service. It aids in sensory regulation and leaves you feeling refreshed rather than clinical.

And the most important item on the menu:

👁️ Radical Transparency It isn't a physical item, but it provides more comfort than a blanket ever could. It is the peace of mind that comes from knowing exactly what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what it costs—before we even start. No surprise bills. No hidden agendas. No medical mystery.

You deserve a provider who anticipates your comfort before you even ask.

If you have questions about our approach or just want to see if we’re the right fit for you, send us a message. We’d love to chat.

Invisalign providers often focus on the smile, but we focus on the sleep.

When you expand the arch to straighten the teeth, you create more room for the tongue. When the tongue has room, it stops falling back into the throat at night.

We use clear aligners as a tool for airway health first and aesthetics second.

The functional benefits include:

✅Better oxygen intake during sleep
✅Reduced snoring and grinding
✅A wider, fuller smile

Don't just fix the crooked tooth. Fix the breathing problem behind it. 🦷💤

Swipe to see the difference. ➡️

Photo 1 is likely what is sitting in your mouth right now. It’s the “standard” way dentistry has been done for decades.

In traditional dentistry, a filling is treated like a pothole repair on a street. They drill out the decay and pack in a material that acts like a wedge. Over time, that wedge puts pressure on your tooth walls, causing it to crack from the inside out. 📉

That is the “cycle of repair” you have been stuck in. Filling. Crack. Crown. Root Canal.

Now look at the final photo.

This is Biomimetic Dentistry.

We didn’t just plug a hole. We rebuilt this tooth layer by layer. We use advanced materials that mimic the flexibility and strength of your natural enamel and dentin. By sealing the tooth against bacteria and bonding it together, we restore it to its original function. 🧬

Notice how you can’t tell where the tooth ends and the restoration begins? That is by design.

You shouldn’t have to worry if your dental work is silently failing you.

If you are tired of the drill-and-fill cycle, it’s time for a different approach. Click the link in our bio to schedule a New Patient Exam and let’s see what’s really going on. 🦷

We are absolutely delighted with Tretobia’s new smile. She looks radiant, and seeing her side-by-side with Dr. Will in matching shirts was the perfect surprise. It just goes to show that great minds really do think alike. 👯‍♂️

It is a privilege to play a part in a journey like this. We have loved every step of the process with her and are so grateful she chose us for her care. 🖤

If you have been thinking about making a change, we are here to help. Dr. Will would love to chat with you about your own smile goals.

The holidays are for feasting and family. We want you to enjoy every single bite. 🥧

But while you are grazing on leftovers and holiday sweets, remember that sugar loves to stick around.

The Solution: You don’t have to skip the dessert. Just follow it with water.

A simple “swish” after eating neutralizes acids and helps rinse away sugar before it can settle into your enamel.

Eat well. Enjoy the time with your people. And stay hydrated. 💧

We told everyone to wear holiday pajamas for our holiday picture today.

While MOST of the team nailed it, our doctors forgot what day it was and wore their standard clinical attire... 🎄

I believe in uniform compliance here. So I fixed the issue for them.

Please enjoy this corrected holiday portrait. Hope everyone stays safe and has a wonderful holiday season!

It hasn’t been a perfect year, but the energy this team brings to the office makes every day better. ✨

If you’ve stopped by lately, you know we are fully embracing the holiday spirit with the wardrobe to match. Stay tuned because we are just getting started. 🎁

We are ready for some holiday downtime. What does your family have planned for the season? 👇

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.
