Dr. Sam Delahunty grew up in the suburbs of Salt Lake City in a family of eight boys. Growing up in sixth position, Sam spent much of his formative years competing in his favorite sport, collegiate wrestling. He attended Alta High School, received his undergraduate degree from the University of Utah and his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Creighton University in Omaha Nebraska.
Dr. Delahunty appreciates providing his patients with sound and relevant dental care. He was selected to participate in a prestigious hospital residency with specific training focused on complex full mouth rehabilitation including root canaland dental implant restorations. He maintains professional affiliations with the Pierre Fauchard Academy, the American Dental Association, the Utah Dental Association and the American Association of Endodontists.
Dr. Delahunty is married to his greatest friend and high school sweetheart. Together they have a baby boy and an energetic Bishcon Frise puppy named Dexter. When Sam is not busy enjoying his dental practice he enjoys traveling with his wife, dining out, and an occasional golf outing with his brothers.
I like assisting the patient in gaining self confidence through replacing missing and broken teeth with esthetic and functional implant dentistry. The experience of losing a tooth is one that deeply affects the life of a person. If I can play a small role in restoring a patient to a happy and healthy smile then I have achieved the pinnacle of why I studied and trained as an implant dentist in the first place. I thoroughly enjoy using advanced technology which makes the devastating experience of tooth loss short-lived. With our state of the art 3D imaging and digital impression system we can replace a missing tooth with an implant and crown in as little as one hour. Additionally, for the patient that needs multiple teeth replaced, we can plan and execute similar treatments that will have the patient functioning in no time at all. I enjoy the ability to bridge the confidence gap for a patient who has suffered through tooth pain and loss.
Our implant dentistry has drastically changed the oral health of our patients for the better. The era of losing teeth permanently is a thing of the past as Canyon Rim Dental can safely and predictably restore areas of the mouth with missing or ailing teeth. With modern tools and technology we can help heal bone and surrounding structures in order to restore the mouth to its original function as a contributing element to the patients overall health. Without teeth we simply cannot receive proper nutrition let alone ordinary aspects of oral health such as: smiling, laughing, singing and self confidence. Our implant dentistry will help take the away the smile hidden behind the hand and turn it into the confident and happy smile you hope and dream of.
