You deserve a loyal, dependable partner for complex cases.
Sometimes cases arise that are better referred out of your office. Whether a case is too time consuming, or a bit outside of your comfort zone, you need a trustworthy partner who can offer expanded treatment options for your patients.
But letting go of a valued patient can be worrisome. Dr. Vence respects and values the doctor-patient relationship. That is why he communicates with referring dentists during treatment to provide ongoing updates and collaborative treatment planning, he sends back work the referring dentists can and want to do with their own patients, and he sends back exceptionally satisfied patients. In fact, patients tend to thank their dentists for the referral, and the coorperative process is of great credit to the referring dentist.
Dr. Vence’s 35 years of diagnostic and clinical expertise, his proven track record, and his professional affiliations with the AAED, AARD, FACD, and FICD can give you confidence your patients will receive world class innovation and technique.

Management of Dentoalveolar Ridge Defects for Implant Site Development: An Interdisciplinary Approach
This article presents the interdisciplinary management
of a severe alveolar ridge defect to enable optimal
implant placement and minimally invasive dentistry
for an optimal functional and esthetic outcome.
Clinical Treatment Planning - Case 73 (DX)
This article outlines the diagnosis and prognosis of a 60-year-old male who had been under the care of his longstanding general dentist with regular dental visits. Dr. Vence proposed and carried out a treatment plan to specifically address the needs of the patient after the co-discovery process.
Clinical Treatment Planning - Case 73 (TX)

Sequential Tooth Preparation For Aesthetic Porcelain Full-Coverage Crown Restorations
The fabrication and delivery of functional, biocompatible restorations with a natural appearance have become the definitive goals of restorative dentistry. This article presents a sequential approach that can be used to render the proper shape and margin design critical to the fabrication of full-coverage crown restorations that are indistinguishable from the adjacent natural teeth.
Predictable Esthetics through Functional Design: The Role of Harmonious Disclusion
The goal of this clinical report is to describe and illustrate the principles for achieving a predictable esthetic result for patients with worn incisal edges by creating a harmonious angle of disclusion. An angle of disclusion in harmony with a patient’s envelope of parafunction reduces load on the anterior teeth and therefore may help reduce failure on the restored anterior teeth.
Implants: Plan B As A Contingency Plan For Restorative Failures
Even when dentists execute proven principles and use contemporary techniques optimally, the oral environment, cyclic loading, and thermal cycling cause materials or structures to fail. Implant dentistry enables dentists to limit the extent of their restorations and plan for one-tooth or fixed-partial dentures of just three or four units, limiting the extent of replacing failures in contingency plans.
A Classification System For Crestal and Redicular Dentoalveolar Bone Phenotypes
Pretreatment knowledge of crestal and radicular dentoalveolar zones and their associated thickness can improve risk assessment to meet esthtic and functional goals, particularly when discrepancies in anterior maxillary and mandibular arches exist and when an anterior protected articulation is to be achieved.
