Life-Changing Restorative Dentistry : When your teeth are healthy and in peak form, you feel better. If your smile is worn or less than picture perfect, we can help you overcome nearly any dental challenge. Dr. Morris and Dr. Bakke have been honored to teach other dentists in the area of esthetic neuromuscular reconstruction dentistry. Their elite continuing education includes instructing at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, as well as many other courses at prestigious dental training centers around the world.

True transformation goes far deeper than cosmetic changes because a restored smile renews function, comfort, and personal confidence. By focusing on complete oral health rather than quick fixes, dental care helps people eat without pain and laugh freely again.

Modern health-first dentistry shifts the focus from repairing damage after it occurs to preventing future issues through advanced technology and comprehensive planning. Embracing a whole-mouth approach reduces the need for constant procedures, delivering lasting health, function, and peace of mind.

The true cost of neglected dental health goes far beyond financial expenses because it robs you of confidence, favorite foods, and genuine moments of joy. Comprehensive smile restoration isn't just about fixing teeth, as it gives you the freedom to smile, eat, and live without worry.

Freehand composite veneers offer a quick single-shade transformation, but they are prone to chipping and staining within five to ten years. In contrast, custom porcelain veneers provide superior strength, natural translucency, and precise fit that can last for decades.

The difference between looking good and actually having a healthy mouth is quite different. A pretty smile isn't always a healthy smile. It's easy to focus on what we can see. White teeth. Straight teeth. All those social media photos that are posed. But healthy dentistry goes much deeper than appearance.
What's happening below the gums? How healthy is the bone supporting the teeth or the gums just waving in the wind? Is your bite balanced? Are your restorations protecting your long term health? Those questions matter just as much as what your smile looks like. That's why our philosophy is health first. Because when your mouth is truly healthy, everything else becomes easier.
Your smile feels natural. Your bite feels comfortable, and your dentistry will last longer. You spend less time worrying about what's going to go wrong next, and you get real confidence. That starts with real health.

Treating bleeding gums as a normal occurrence overlooks an early warning sign that threatens your entire mouth's foundation. Addressing gum inflammation early protects your natural teeth and ensures that any restorative dental work stays secure for years to come.

Removing heavy tartar buildup with ultrasonic tools is essential for stopping severe gum inflammation and bad breath. Left untreated, the underlying bacteria can enter the bloodstream and elevate risks for systemic health issues like diabetes and heart disease.

Social media trends often promote bright white teeth as the standard for dental health, but surface appearance can hide severe bite or gum issues. Prioritizing functional stability and long-term oral health naturally produces a beautiful, authentic smile that lasts.

Extensive decay can reach the nerve of a tooth, requiring a root canal and post placement to support a protective crown. However, when very little healthy tooth structure remains, long term success becomes a significant challenge despite best efforts to save it.

Some patients become more than just familiar faces, they become part of the family. ❤️

Swipe to see a few special family photos back in the day, when Dr. Morris, Dr. Bakke, Dr. Johnson, and lab tech Kelton Johnson attended Larry Dean’s ballroom dance competitions. Larry is a longtime patient and Sarasota familiar face!

Larry has lived an incredible life. After serving in the 101st Airborne Rangers, he took his talents into the world of ballroom dance, where he became a distinguished international ballroom dance competition organizer, studio owner, choreographer, and judge. His reputation in the dance world reached far beyond Sarasota, with dancers and professionals from around the world seeking out his expertise.

Our entire family used to dance, and Larry judged many of our competitions. That shared passion and personal connection make these memories even more special. We’re grateful to celebrate Larry’s remarkable career and the lasting impact he has had on so many dancers.

Many in Sarasota know Larry, and we’ve been so fortunate to know him not only for his accomplishments, but also for the wonderful person he is. It’s always a pleasure having him in our office, and we’re proud to have cared for his smile throughout the years! 🦷✨
