At Sullivan Dental Partners in Brentwood, TN, we want our patients to experience the fastest, easiest, and most efficient dental care possible. We realize your time is valuable and that making several trips to our dental office is inconvenient for you. That's why we use the latest dental technology to streamline our processes and provide the highest-quality dental care in the fewest appointments. By implementing 3-D printers, milling units, and on-site lab technicians, we’re showing how we put patients first at our dental office.

Let’s take a look at how our advanced technology works and how it benefits you, our patient.

The Power of Digital Dentistry

Gone are the days when dental restorations took multiple visits to complete; with digital dentistry, you don’t have to wait for your new smile. Our Brentwood dental office designs and produces your restorations using state-of-the-art digital technology. This digital process allows us to accurately recreate your smile and eliminate the need for messy, uncomfortable molds and impressions. These time-consuming processes are a thing of the past.

The first thing we do is create a 3-D model of your teeth with our digital scanner. This gives us the information we need to precisely plan your treatment. Then, we use this model to customize your dental restoration; whether you need a dental crown, bridge, filling, or any other type of restoration, we can make it right here in our dental office. We want your restoration to fit perfectly and last as long as possible.

A 3-D Printer to Make Your Appointment Easier

We're happy to use 3-D printers to improve your dental experience. We utilize this technology to make your dental restorations in our office. Once we create your treatment plan and discuss it with you, we use our 3-D printers to create your dental crown, bridge, denture, or other restoration without using an outside laboratory. We can even produce models and temporary restorations on the spot, saving you valuable time and making it possible for you to visualize your new smile. Our 3-D printer produces incredibly accurate crowns, bridges, and dentures, so you won’t have to worry about an ill-fitting or uncomfortable restoration. Everything we do is aimed at helping you achieve a more beautiful smile.

Milling Units Are Fast and Accurate

Our in-office milling units can create your dental restorations while you wait comfortably in our dental office. We use the digital files from our design software to create and customize real dental restorations, all in our dental office. Our milling unit can make a porcelain bridge or crown from a solid block of material. Once it’s finished, we can complete your dental treatment and get you back to your busy day.

This milling technology offers the perfect combination of speed and accuracy; instead of sending impressions to a dental lab and waiting days or weeks, we can create your restoration in a matter of hours. All you have to do is relax, watch television, or enjoy a beverage while waiting. You’ll spend less time waiting and make fewer trips to our dental office, making this technology invaluable to our busy patients. You can also feel confident that your new smile meets the highest quality standards; we have total control over the process since everything is made on-site.

On-Site Lab Technicians: The Heart of Precision

Even though we realize the importance of technological advancements in our dental practice, we also understand how important it is to combine technology with human expertise. That’s why we have on-site lab technicians who work with our dental team to perfect each dental restoration we make. These highly skilled, experienced technicians work tirelessly to ensure that every dental crown, bridge, or other restoration fits seamlessly with your smile. Our goal is always for you to have a healthy, natural-looking smile.

Because we utilize on-site lab technicians, we can make real-time adjustments to your restorations if needed. If you have a specific request for how you want your restoration to look or fit, we work with you right then and there to make those adjustments, ensuring your comfort and satisfaction. We can provide the fastest turnaround times since we employ in-house lab technicians. If you have any issues with your dental restoration, we will happily address them. There’s no need for delays; we’ll go straight to the source and cut out the outside dental lab.

The Benefits of Our Streamlined Approach

At Sullivan Dental Partners, we are committed to providing our patients with the best possible dental care. Here are some of the key benefits of our advanced technology and streamlined approach:

  • Fewer appointments — We can create your restorations in one dental visit instead of requiring you to make multiple trips to our dental office. We no longer rely on outside labs to make dental restorations so that you can enjoy fewer appointments.
  • Faster treatment times — Because we now have 3-D printers and other technologies, we no longer need as much time to create your dental restorations. We can make them in just a few hours, allowing for faster treatment times.
  • Improved precision and fit — Digital technology makes it possible to create highly accurate, customized restorations that perfectly fit your smile. We no longer use traditional mold, so you don’t have to worry about an uncomfortable or poorly fitting restoration.
  • Quality you can trust — Because we design and produce everything in our Brentwood office, we have complete control over the quality of your crown or bridge. We can craft restorations with exceptional precision and attention to detail.
  • Convenience — We understand how busy you are, so we know you don’t want to spend extra time at the dentist’s office. Our advanced technologies make your dental care convenient for you and your loved ones.
