Many people who are missing teeth feel embarrassed to smile, laugh, or talk. They may even have trouble eating.
Dr. Clint Newman provides dental bridges to qualified patients in order to restore their smiles and renew their confidence.
How can a bridge improve your health and confidence?
Replacing missing teeth with a dental bridge can restore proper function, allowing you to eat and speak comfortably and preventing other oral health issues from forming.
Dr. Newman in Nashville, TN, can create a custom bridge which blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth and complements your facial features for an incredibly lifelike effect.
For qualifying patients, we can secure a bridge with dental implants. This means we do not have to alter healthy teeth to accommodate crowns and you can enjoy added health benefits.

Wondering what to expect during treatment?
Dr. Newman can place and restore implants at his Nashville practice, making this stage of dental implant treatment very convenient. During the surgery, he will precisely place two or more implants in your jawbone. For your comfort, you can opt for sedation during the procedure.
Over the next four to six months, your dental implants will fuse with the surrounding bone tissue in a process called osseointegration. Successful osseointegration is vital to the success of your dental implants, and you can assist the process by maintaining a healthy lifestyle throughout.
Once your dental implants have successfully integrated with the jawbone, you will come back to our office to receive your permanent bridge. We work with renowned dental labs to deliver high-quality restorations that blend in naturally with your smile.
Dental bridges are permanent solutions to replacing missing teeth. By inserting a fixed bridge between the two teeth on either side of a gap, dental bridges hold an artificial tooth.
There are several types of dental bridges provided by Dr. Newman, and during your consultation you and he will establish which option is best suited for your situation. Traditionally, bridges are made up of porcelain and metal and include two crowns that anchor to the teeth surrounding a gap. An artificial tooth (pontic) fills the space from which the tooth is missing.
Dental bridges often require at least two office visits. During the consultation, the two anchoring teeth are filed and buffed to allow space for the crowns. A mold is then made of the site and is sent to a dental laboratory where the bridges are designed. Temporary bridges that can be worn for several weeks will be placed in the patient’s mouth while the permanent ones are being completed.
Dr. Clint Newman provides dental bridges to replace missing teeth and restore your confidence.
When the dental bridges arrive at our Nashville office, we will schedule your second visit during which the permanent dental bridges will be adjusted to fit perfectly then cemented to ensure a comfortable fit. Depending on the case, Dr. Newman can temporary cement the bridges to allow your teeth and tissue time to adjust to the new bridge and the bridges can be permanently cemented at a later time.
