Overview
We have an excellent restorative dentistry staff at the Texas Center for Cosmetic Dentistry to help you with missing teeth. In our offices in Houston or The Woodlands, TX, we are committed to bringing you a dental bridge or partial dentures that is aesthetically pleasing as well as functional. Our Founding and Accredited Member of the AACD (American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry), Dr. Guy Lewis and his team of dentists offer attractive porcelain dental bridges to patients who are missing one or more of their natural teeth.
Traditional bridges are comprised of an artificial tooth or teeth that are secured into place by crowns attached to the natural teeth on either side of a gap. Bridges can also be stabilized by dental implants for a secure, lasting restoration. When our patient is missing one to several teeth in a row, we often recommend a fixed dental bridge, or partial (removable) denture. Dental bridges anchor an artificial tooth or teeth between two natural teeth for a lasting, beautiful smile. We can also provide implant-supported (partial) dentures for a tooth loss solution that does not anchor to your natural teeth. Learn about all your options at a dental consultation with Dr. Lewis and restore your smile and the functionality of your teeth with a dental bridge.
Treatment
Patients usually need to make two visits for their dental bridge procedure. During the first visit, the abutment teeth (anchors) are prepared by filing down the teeth to allow room for a crown to be placed over them. Impressions of the teeth are then made to help make the bridge in a dental laboratory. Patients will be provided with a temporary bridge to wear in order to protect their exposed teeth. During their second visit, the dentist will remove the temporary bridge and the custom-made bridge will be installed, checked, and adjusted as necessary. Patients may need to schedule multiple visits over the next few weeks to check the framework of the bridge as well as adjust the patient’s bite for comfort.
Texas Center for Cosmetic Dentistry Reviews
I had a consultation at , Texas Center for Cosmetic Dentistry and it was a wonderful experience. The entire team was friendly, welcoming, and professional from the moment I walked in. The dentist took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explained my options, and answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed.I left feeling informed, comfortable, and confident about moving forward with treatment. It’s clear they genuinely care about their patients and take pride in providing excellent care. I highly recommend this office.

I recently saw Dr. Teddy Lewis at Texas Center for Cosmetic Dentistry in The Woodlands and had a wonderful experience. Both Dr. Lewis and his dental assistant Marissa were incredibly kind and compassionate from the moment I walked in.I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so I tend to notice every little detail—and Dr. Lewis matched that energy with the patience of a saint. He is clearly a perfectionist himself when it comes to cosmetic dentistry and that made me feel completely at ease knowing everything would be done to the highest standard.His office staff were equally warm, caring and supportive the entire time.I left feeling well taken care of and truly impressed. Highly recommend Dr. Teddy Lewis and his team!
Dr. Guy Lewis is absolutely the best! I conducted months of research meeting with other cosmetic dentists before meeting Dr Lewis. Once I met him I knew he was the one! On our first visit he found a small cavity that 3 other dentists had overlooked.I live in Midland TX and traveled 9 hours. I trusted no one else with my smile. I personally know Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders who travel to have him perfect their smiles.He is, honest, detailed and will never encourage you to have a procedure you do not need, he cares about perfection. Along with the health of your teeth, he is an artist, he sees every detail. If he feels something has not come out to his standards he will fix it free of charge.If you worry about the cost, DO NOT convince yourself that saving a little money by using another dentist is justifiable. I had the same concern; however, it is not worth compromising your smile which could compromise your entire facial appearance.A smile contributes so much to your first impression, make sure it is a good one. Your personal and professional life can be dictated by your smile. Your smile will change your life, I never realized people love taking pictures with me or of me because of my “smile”.I'm not paid to write this, I care about beauty, I want anyone seeking to better themselves to find the best professional to accomplish their goals. Life is worth living!The pure joy of having a beautiful smile is more than words can convey, your life will change and Dr Lewis is talent sent from heaven, if you want perfection do no search any further.
Great experience- don’t live the dentist visits in general but this was easy and great!
