About Daniel J. Shelby, DMD
Dr. Shelby grew up in Montana where he started learning dentistry at a young age from his father (a general dentist) the man who inspired him to become a dentist. In the past, Dr. Shelby has practiced several years of general dentistry before becoming a periodontist, which gives him a unique style of care – “a real-world approach”. He currently focuses his practice on the management of periodontal disease, pre-prosthetic surgery, tooth extractions, mucogingival defects, dental implant placement, and bone grafting surgery.

Dental Implant Procedures by Dr Shelby
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a root-form titanium screw that is surgically placed in the jaw to create an anchor for teeth to be built upon. Dental implants are considered the best way to replace missing teeth.Tooth Extractions
Sometimes referred to as “having a tooth pulled,” a tooth extraction is a very common oral surgical procedure in which a natural tooth is removed from the jaw. An implant may be placed after adequate healing time.Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a cap or cover that protects the tooth and restores it to mimic natural shape, size, and function. Crowns are make of zirconia or porcelain and can be either cemented or screw-retained.Dental Bridges
An implant bridge or dental bridge is a permanent option that replaces multiple missing teeth. It literally bridges areas that are missing one or more teeth and fill in larger spaces with natural looking crowns.Dentures
Often made of plastic, acrylic or hard resin, dentures are outdated replacements for missing teeth that must be removed daily for cleaning. Patients typically dislike dentures and have difficulty chewing with them.Implant Cosmetics
The goal of implant cosmetic dentistry is to create tooth-like restorations that are strong, mimic natural beauty and completely restore natural function. Think of cosmetic dentistry as plastic surgery for teeth.Frequently Asked Questions
