ORCAA Mission

Had an amazing week in Guatemala learning the placement of extramaxillary implants with ORCAA. Thank you to the amazing faculty, Drs Sewon Oh, Juan Gonzales, Gregorio Redaelli, Emanuele Coppola and Zack Brown, the prosthetic team as well as the University of Francisco Marroquin. The ORCAA mission focuses on reconstruction and rehabilitation of the severely atrophic maxilla for the folks here in Guatemala. Edentulism is unfortunately endemic to this part of central America, so there was a lot of challenging pathology. This complexity required the use of advanced techniques such as zygomatic, trans nasal and pterygoid implants. I can’t recommend this experience strongly enough for clinicians who want to further their implant expertise while serving the Guatemalan people.

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy birthday to our clinical partner, Kim or should we say, Coach Kim. Kim led practice and games over the weekend for her daughter’s basketball team. The team also took her out to dinner to celebrate her birthday. We helped Kim celebrate with a delicious carrot cake. We hope you enjoyed your special day, Kim; you deserve it!

Cosmetic Gum Grafting

Cosmetic Gum Grafting Before and After Healthy gums cover the root surfaces of the teeth. When you have gum recession, the gum retracts back, exposing the vulnerable root surfaces. Dr. Towe performs periodontal plastic procedures designed to rebuild lost gum. The grafts provide “new” gum tissue, covering unsightly recession, protecting against root cavities and damage as well as prevent future worsening of recession.

Transformation Wednesday

Transformation Wednesday! It’s amazing how a smile can be changed in just one day! It has been our pleasure going through this journey together. We use a complete digital workflow, where we first take a digital scan of the patient’s face and use that to design and create their digital new smile. Technology allows us to plan the position of the implants and the final restoration with significantly greater accuracy. To change a smile, to change a life is our privilege and honor. Words cannot explain this transformation. Thank you for trusting us with your care!

Patient Thank You Note

We recently received a fantastic, hand written thank you note from one of our satisfied patients. We take such reassurance in our positive patient reviews and when our patients are happy, so are we! It’s a very gratifying experience to receive such positive feedback and know that we are making a difference in our patient’s lives. We thank this patient for her kind words and for choosing us to help her on her journey!

Laser Surgery

Laser-assisted surgical therapy with the LANAP® protocol is a less invasive alternative to traditional periodontal surgery. Compared to traditional gum surgery, our patients typically report less discomfort during and after the procedure. Bone loss is a destructive process that is bacterial driven and can be exacerbated by clenching and grinding. Using our laser for non-invasive surgical treatment, there has been a significant increase in bone level and attachment around this molar. If you struggle with periodontal disease come see how we can help you get a healthier smile!

Pterygoid Implants

‘Tis the season to be thankful! We are thankful for our wonderful patients and how we can help change their lives. With a multi-disciplinary approach, Dr. Towe was able to place both traditional and pterygoid implants. Pterygoid implants were used in the areas of the upper jaw for severe jawbone loss. Our advanced technology uses a combination of a facial and intraoral scanner and allows for digitizing the patient to enhance treatment planning. We are able to three-dimensionally plan the case after the initial intake data is captured. The Digital Smile Design allows both the patient and the doctor to see what the new teeth and the new smile will look like before the procedure. Improving smiles is our goal, and we take pride in restoring healthy, beautiful smiles!
