Twenty-Five to Thirty Minutes
A Direct Run Down US-80
Bossier Parish patients reach our west Shreveport office on a straightforward drive, which keeps each crown appointment manageable.
Haughton, LA · Bridges & Crowns
Haughton has grown quickly, but restorative work beyond the routine still means driving west. Our Pines Road office is about 25 to 30 minutes along US-80, where Dr. Judson Murray and Dr. Neil Patel handle crowns and bridges in a building that also houses a Certified Denture Technician.
If you’re seeing the name Professional Denture Clinic, you’re in the right place.
Professional Denture Clinic is now Texas Sedation Dental & Implant Center, Shreveport. You’ll find us at the same Pines Road office with the same phone number and the same denture craftsmanship, now with the full-mouth dental implants, meticulous planning, advanced technology, and IV sedation of Texas Sedation Dental & Implant Center. We’re here for patients who are tired of missing teeth, loose dentures, or failing teeth and feel like they have no good options left. Learn about the change →

Why Patients Choose Us
Twenty-Five to Thirty Minutes
Bossier Parish patients reach our west Shreveport office on a straightforward drive, which keeps each crown appointment manageable.
Failing Older Crowns
Crowns from decades ago often hide decay at the margin. We evaluate the tooth underneath rather than judging by appearance, and replace only when it is warranted.
Implant or Traditional Bridges
Dr. Murray and Dr. Patel restore both kinds, and Dr. Murray also places implants, so the comparison of the two comes from experience with both rather than favoring one.
Sedation Available
IV sedation at the Shreveport office makes extended restorative visits comfortable, which suits Haughton patients combining several teeth into one trip.

Crowns are recommended when what is left of a tooth cannot survive normal chewing on its own: after a crack, after a filling has grown wider than the walls holding it, or after a root canal has left the tooth brittle. Covering the tooth completely is what keeps it in service, and it is almost always preferable to extracting and replacing.
For Haughton patients, that work is done at our Pines Road office in west Shreveport, about 25 to 30 minutes along US-80, by Dr. Judson Murray and Dr. Neil Patel. Dr. Murray also handles implant and full-arch cases, which is useful context when the question is whether to invest in saving a particular tooth or plan around losing it.
Bridges close gaps where a tooth is already gone. A traditional bridge borrows support from the neighboring teeth, an implant-supported bridge does not. If those neighbors are already crowned or heavily filled, a bridge may make good use of them. If they are pristine, we will usually explain why an implant leaves you better off, with both prices in writing.
