Services
Murphy Family Dentistry, based in Lansing, Michigan focuses on world class state-of the-art dentistry. We have the knowledge, tools and technology to improve your general health, smile and demeanor. Explore our dental services for more information. Bonding involves adhering composite resin material that is matched to the color of the tooth, to the front of the tooth.
This is used to fill in narrow grooves in a tooth that cannot be adequately cleaned by brushing. In some cases, the tooth structure has fine grooves or pits which accumulate plaque, not because the person doesn't brush, but because they're too narrow to allow even one bristle into them. These will develop cavities over time, and you don't want that. So the dentist will brush on a coating that seals the grooves and pits, making it possible to brush off all the plaque and keep your teeth healthy.
The gums, ligaments, and bone around the teeth form the foundation for ones teeth. All structures are also referred to as the periodontium. When the periodontium is not healthy, it jeopardizes the teeth just as a bad foundation would threaten the stability of a house.
This can be anything done to correct imperfections in the appearance of the mouth. Anyone who is unhappy with their smile can have it fixed. The upper teeth show, usually, only when smiling, while the lower teeth remain hidden. This is reversed when talking, with the upper teeth remaining hidden while the lower teeth show.

I think they are the best Dental Office in the country. Lansing and Michigan is so lucky to have them. Who enjoys going to the dentist? Me! Everyone is so nice and you will be well taken care of. My family has enjoyed the Murphy Clan and their dental expertise since the early 70's. That's 50 years! Thankyou.

Had a great experience dealing with Brooke, Carrie, and Dr Kevin who installed a crown after I broke off one of my back molars. Everything went smoothly with a beautiful crown that fits in nicely with the rest of my teeth. And NO PAIN! Kudos to you all!

As usual, my experience with Dr Kevin and the staff was top notch. I have a hard time going to the dentist but Dr Kevin and the other employees are so welcoming and kind that I'm actually not terrified to go to the office anymore. Thanks so much Murphy family!

DrJohn and Dr Kevin along with their entire staff are wonderful people to work with! From cleanings, to fillings, to crowns, I have had it all and never a complaint in the last 46 years I started going their. Their office is beautiful and very clean! I would recommend them to anyone! In fact, all my siblings, their children and grandchildren, my dad, my entire family of 10 see Dr. John and Dr. Kevin.

We've been going to Murphy Family Dentistry since we moved to the Lansing area in 2016. My wife and I have had nothing but pleasant experiences here. Each of the hygienists does a great job and both Dr. Kevin and Dr. John are personable but efficient. The whole cleaning experience usually takes under 30 minutes which I really appreciate.

Fantastic dentistry! From the relaxed environment, to the high tech equipment, to the fantastic hygienists and dentists, I've never been more excited to go to my dental appointments. The service is also fantastic - I have never waited more than 10 minutes for my appointment time, and have always been notified of cancellations and every available appointment slot to find appointment times that are most convenient for me.

I actually live out of state at the moment, but I still schedule appointments with Murphy whenever I'm going to be back in Michigan rather than hunting for an okay or bad dentist someplace else. Would give 10 stars if I could!

My first real dental experience, aside from semi-annual cleaning, in sixty years. Dr. Kevin Murphy was extremely proficient. The work was done in less than a half hour, while I had imagined multiple appointments would be required to repair or replace my broken tooth. I have to admit that I actually enjoyed, and learned from the experience, Bravo!

Cannot recommend Dr. Murphy higher! Great guy and great dentist. I have been to other dentists in Lansing but none compare to him. Does great work and doesn't try to up the bill with unneeded work. Office staff is great and he always has a great story to share - ask him about the hole in one! Thanks!
