Dr. Murphy has been working as a restorative dentist for 40 years and loves what he does. It’s important to him to be constantly learning new techniques and skills so he can continually improve the patient’s experience..

‍

Dr. Murphy grew up in a small Canadian town next door to a dentist. This is where he first developed his interest in dentistry. He received his education in Halifax, Nova Scotia for his undergrad and dental degree. After moving around Canada for a couple of decades, he moved to the US and has lived there ever since.

‍

With years of restorative dentistry under his belt, Dr Murphy saw many patients undergo the traditional process of getting dental implants that could take up to 10+ months to complete. When he heard that Nuvia could provide permanent teeth in 24 hours to dental implant patients, he knew he had to be a part of it. He is excited to be part of the Nuvia Dental Implant Center team in Dublin, OH.
