If you were born after 9/11, I implore you to make a point to talk to someone who was alive that day and how it changed our world, and how important that event still is today. United we must stand.

Long Live the Empire State.

🚨NEW HYGIENIST ALERT🚨

Welcome to our team Robert!

Robert brings a unique background and a wealth of life experience to our dental team. Patients quickly appreciate his calm, friendly demeanor and the genuine interest he takes in making each visit comfortable and positive.

A local to the area, Robert graduated from Billings High School, just a short distance from our office. He continued his education at Wichita State University, earning an Associate’s degree in Administration of Justice, followed by a Bachelor’s degree from Drury College. He later completed his Master’s degree in Sociology at Lincoln University in 2014.

Robert spent 30 years serving the community in law enforcement with the Springfield, Missouri Police Department before retiring in 2014. After his retirement, he pursued a new path in healthcare and earned his dental hygiene degree in Kansas City in 2017.

Today, Robert enjoys helping patients improve and maintain their oral health while creating a relaxed and reassuring experience in the hygiene chair. His ability to connect with people from all walks of life makes him a valued part of our team.

Robert is married and has one adult daughter and three grandchildren. Outside the office, he enjoys restoring and learning about classic 1968–1969 Pontiac Firebirds, scuba diving, snow and water skiing, amateur radio, and flying remote-controlled airplanes.

Robert is in the office one to two days each week, which also allows us to offer additional hygiene appointment availability for patients who prefer a flexible schedule or are looking to be seen sooner.

Goodbye Crane Family Dentistry! It's been a great 27 years!

Dr. Burpo has been proud to serve our community as a family dental office, providing quality, compassionate care to patients of all ages, in a general dentistry atmosphere. As dentistry continues to evolve, so have we. We've expanded our services, invested in advanced technology, and pursued additional training to offer an advanced range of treatment options—all while maintaining the personal relationships and friendly atmosphere our patients have come to expect.

Today, our practice has grown into a more advanced dental clinic. This change reflects our commitment to providing comprehensive care under one roof, from routine preventive services to dental implants, complex restorations, dentures, cosmetic treatments (including BOTOX!), endodontics, and other advanced procedures. Our goal is to reduce the need for referrals, offer the latest treatment options, and help our patients achieve healthier, more confident smiles with the highest standard of care. While our name and capabilities have evolved, our dedication to treating every patient like family remains exactly the same.

So don't fear! Dr. Burpo is not going anywhere! And to celebrate, we will be giving a FREE Sonicare electric toothbrush to anyone who schedules as a new patient this month!

Do you, or anyone you know have severe problems with grinding or clenching? Perhaps you don't even know you grind and/or clench but your teeth look like the photos below?

Grinding and clenching leads to lesions on the hard tissues of the teeth that can lead to expensive repairs. We now offer Xeomin (another neuroparalytic like Botox) that is injected directly into the masseter muscle in order to weaken the muscle responsible and prevent further damage. This does not render the muscle completely paralyzed, so chewing and talking is not disrupted.

Common symptoms of TMD —jaw pain, headaches, poor jaw mobility, and even earaches—can all improve with this minimally invasive procedure. For patients who have tried night guards, physical therapy, or medications without success, masseter Botox offers a new path forward.

We offer free consultations for masseter Botox and have openings for these appointments most days. Call today if you're interested in learning more! 417-723-1723

We have some big changes on the horizon! Be on the look out 👀👀

It's never been easier to get a denture! As some of you may know, our new scanner allows us to instantly send over anatomical information to the lab where they can fabricate it faster, and even more accurately. So far the feedback from the patients has been overwhelmingly positive.

So on that note, we are offering a BOGO deal. Buy a denture, get an EXACT COPY for 50% off. That means two dentures made the way YOU like, ready for a backup if (when) the occasion calls for it.

If you know anyone who has been looking to finally commit to a denture, now's the time to call.
