Meet the Doctors Battle Ground, WA
Dr. Burke Jardine
Dr. Jardine loves doing dentistry. He is passionate about how the art and science can combine to create a beautiful, harmonious, and functional display. His passion for the dental field has pushed him to become a dental specialist. As a prosthodontist, he has significant knowledge, training, and experience performing advanced dental treatments.
Dr. Jardine has always had a great love of figuring things out and fixing things. His mom loves to tell stories about him when he was a kid; like the time when he was just two years old he took his sisters crib apart, with her still in it. As a two-year old, he also somehow found a way to take his bedroom door off. Especially as a young child, Dr. Jardine, was constantly taking things apart to look at the gears and parts, and then hopefully putting them back together.
The decision to become a Prosthodontist after becoming a mechanical engineer, and a dentist may not seem like a typical combination. Dr. Jardine has been able to take his passion of figuring things out, designing, and building better things and merge that with dentistry to become a Prosthodontic Specialist. As a Prosthodontist, he can see the big picture of how the mouth works, the small intricate parts of the gums and teeth, and the artistry to create a smile for his patients’ needs that they will love.
Dr. Jardine and his wife, Jen, live in a nearby community with their 6 children. They enjoy spending time together as a family doing a wide range of activities. A family night with pizza and board games, a day outside spent wake surfing on the lake or snow skiing at Mt. Hood are some of their favorites. Dr. Jardine is an avid sports fan, especially college sports, Portland Trailblazers, and the Seahawks. He also enjoys serving others in his community and church.
