Personalized Dental Implant Care
Restore Your Smile’s Comfort & Function
Missing teeth can change the way you eat, speak, and feel about your smile. If you’re exploring tooth replacement, Skinner Dental can help you understand your options. We offer dental implant care in Murray, Utah, with thoughtful planning and personal attention throughout your treatment.
A dental implant is a small post placed in the jawbone to support a replacement tooth. As the surrounding bone heals, it forms a connection with the implant. A custom restoration completes the visible part of your smile.
Depending on your needs, implants may support a single crown, a bridge, or a denture. Our team will evaluate your dental health and discuss which approach may be appropriate for you.
An implant consultation may be helpful if you’re:
Missing a single tooth
Missing several teeth
Exploring alternatives to a traditional dental bridge
Looking for additional support for a denture
Planning ahead for a tooth that needs removal
Unsure which tooth replacement option fits your needs
Your care starts with a conversation about your goals, concerns, and everyday needs. We’ll explain the recommended treatment, compare suitable alternatives, and help you understand the steps involved before you decide.
My daughter started going here, and I soon transferred over as well. I was impressed with the up to date equipment, and they can basically do everything in the office without sending you elsewhere. Both of the Dr. Skinner and JJ have always been very informational with every visit. I would recommend them to anyone.

Great service and very friendly! I broke open a tooth while overseas and called them immediately upon landing in SLC. They were able to get me in the next day and within a few hours I had a completely new crown installed. Thank you Dr Justin Skinner, Loren, J.J. and everyone at Skinner dental.

Best office EVER!! I was visiting SLC and broke a tooth. Dr. Skinner was able to see me on the weekend and take care of it. His office staff ( I think her name was JJ) was so kind and helpful. Highly recommend them!!
Understand Your Tooth Replacement Options
Dental Implant Questions?
We Have Answers
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Your gum health, available jawbone, overall health, and medical history all influence whether implants are appropriate. We’ll review these factors during your evaluation. Some patients need additional treatment before implant placement, while others may benefit from a different replacement option.
Can implants replace more than one tooth?
Yes. Implants can support individual crowns or restorations that replace multiple teeth, such as bridges or dentures. The number and placement of implants depend on your anatomy and the planned restoration.
How are implants different from a traditional bridge?
An implant-supported replacement is anchored in the jawbone. A traditional bridge typically relies on neighboring teeth for support and may require reshaping those teeth. We’ll discuss the benefits, limitations, and care requirements of each suitable option.
What if I don’t have enough bone for an implant?
Additional evaluation can help determine whether bone grafting or another approach may be appropriate. Grafting adds steps and healing time to treatment. We’ll explain any recommended procedures and whether specialist care is needed.
How long does dental implant treatment take?
Treatment usually involves several stages, with time for healing between them. Your schedule depends on factors such as extractions, grafting, implant placement, and the final restoration. We’ll outline your expected timeline after evaluating your needs.
How do I care for dental implants?
Brush and clean around your implant restoration daily using the techniques and tools recommended by your dental team. Regular visits help us monitor the surrounding tissues and restoration. Contact us if you notice pain, swelling, looseness, or changes in your bite.
