English translation:empaste [filling/dental filling]
Explanation:
Podría referirse a empaste (empaste dental, dental filling). Funciona en el contexto al menos.
El acrónimo parece ad hoc, utilizado por la propia clínica dental aunque no se trate de uno de uso general.
¿¿CK = colocación??

Me temo que no he encontrado ni un solo ejemplo de uso de estos acrónimos (STE, CK) en este contexto en la red.
