Why Patients Choose Us
Decades of Experience
Dr. Reed has restored Shreveport smiles for decades and personally plans each crown and bridge case at the Pines Road office. His background in implant and denture dentistry means he can compare every option side-by-side.
Zirconia and Porcelain Options
Back molars take monolithic zirconia for strength. Front teeth take layered porcelain for natural translucency. Shreveport patients leave with a restoration built for the specific tooth, not a one-size-fits-all crown.
Implant or Traditional Bridges
If the teeth next to your missing tooth are healthy, we may recommend a single implant. If those neighbors already need restoration, an anchored bridge often makes more sense. We talk through both at your Shreveport consultation.
Sedation Available
Shreveport patients who have been avoiding the dentist can pair their crown or bridge prep with nitrous oxide or oral sedation. IV sedation is coordinated on dedicated days at the Pines Road office.
A dental crown is a custom cap that restores a tooth that has been cracked, heavily decayed, root-canal treated, or worn down. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth, called a pontic, to crowns on the adjacent teeth or to dental implants. Both restorations are color-matched to your existing teeth and built to last ten to fifteen years or longer with routine care and cleanings.
At our Shreveport office on Pines Road, Dr. David Reed plans each crown and bridge using 3D digital impressions instead of putty trays. Restorations are crafted in zirconia or layered porcelain depending on the tooth, and the fit is verified before anything is cemented. Patients commuting from Bossier City, Haughton, Stonewall, Keithville, and Greenwood appreciate that complex cases can be handled in one local office instead of multiple referrals across the ArkLaTex.
Your first step is a Shreveport consultation where Dr. Reed examines the tooth, takes a 3D scan, and walks through whether a crown, a traditional bridge, or an implant-supported bridge is the better restoration. We provide a written estimate, verify your dental benefits, and schedule the prep visit on a day that fits your commute across Caddo or Bossier Parish. Most Shreveport patients leave the second appointment with the permanent crown or bridge cemented in.

“I lost a lower molar years ago and the gap kept getting wider. Dr. Reed walked me through an implant versus a bridge and we went with the implant. Three months later I have a crown on it that feels exactly like the tooth I lost. Worth the drive in from Bossier City.”
