Dr. Arthurs goal is to create a comfortable environment for patients with exceptional, full-service dental care. Her unfortunate childhood dental experiences led to a fear of the dentist, but also motivated her to pursue dentistry in order to create a more positive experience for patients. Today, Dr. Arthur loves to connect personally with every patient, especially those who may experience dental anxiety as she once did.
In her free time, Dr. Arthur loves surfing, paddleboarding, hiking, road biking, and spending time with her friends and family. Fun fact: Dr. Arthur has a new puppy named Jersey Girl, a German Shepherd, who will be trained as Illahee Dentals own therapy dog!
Dr. Harvey was raised in Milpitas, California, a town in the Silicon Valley. His wife Lynn, is a geriatric social worker based in Silverdale. The Harveys have two children, Karen (a family therapist) and Jack (an IT specialist working for the Navy at the shipyard). Dr. Harvey is a graduate of Chapman CollegeClick to open new tab to the Chapman College page class of 1982 where he earned a BS in chemistry and minor in biology; and Northwestern University Dental SchoolClick to open new tab to the Northwestern University Dental School page class of 1986 where he earned his DDS degree.
Dr. Harvey completed his prosthodontic specialty residency at the Naval Dental SchoolClick to open new tab to the Naval Dental School page, Bethesda, MD in 1993 transferring to Submarine Base Bangor where he was the staff prosthodontist and specialty consultant for Naval Dental Center, Bremerton. Captain Harvey retired from the US Navy Reserve in 2008. Dr. Harvey enjoys genealogy and history as well as biking and automobiles.
Dr. Harvey purchased Anderson Hill Dental Center from Dr. Morton in November of 1999. After practicing on Anderson Hill Rd. in Silverdale for many years, an opportunity arose in 2016 to move the practice to a more central location in an upgraded facility. A new practice name was necessary and desired to more accurately reflect the training and practice scope of Dr. Harvey. In May 2017 Central Kitsap Prosthodontics was opened in our current location on McWilliams Rd.
Dr. Arthur is by far the best dentist I've ever had. She is super nice and makes me feel comfortable and like a friend. She does a great job. I am very happy with the work I've had done so far and look forward to having her as my dentist for as long as I live locally.
Each dental implant procedure is unique and replaces missing, broken, or decaying teeth with a single, multiple, or full mouth reconstruction option. Were able to blend your new tooth with your existing smile, and each dental implant takes into consideration your natural tooth shape, size, and color.
Using the latest 3D imaging technology, our team at Illahee Dental scans your mouth to create your perfect dental implant or implants. Nobody has to know youve had any dental work done because of our tooth replacements' beautiful, natural-looking appearance.
The dental implant is a durable, long-term solution that can last 10-15 years or more. It safely fuses with the jawbone for a permanent tooth replacement that stays in place and feels comfortable while you eat, speak, and smile; never worry about your dentures falling out or causing slurred speech.
Illahee Dental in Bremerton, WA offers dental implants, which are one of the best ways to make your smile whole again. They work like tooth roots and are placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the jawbone to support the tooth replacement. Unlike dentures, dental implants are fixed and wont move, fall out, or affect speech and chewing.
The procedure includes placement of the implant, a small titanium post, into the missing tooth bone socket. The jawbone fuses with the post so that its fixed. Next, an abutment, which is a small connector, is attached to the post where the new tooth (AKA the crown) goes.
Impressions are taken of your teeth so that a tooth can be created to match your existing smile. The new tooth is custom-made to look and feel like your own natural tooth and is known as the crown. The crown is attached to the abutment.
When considering dental implant costs, remember that its an investment in your oral health. Dental implants are the top tooth replacement solution recommended by dentists. The value you get from dental implants outweighs the initial cost because dental implants are permanent and durable, and they look and feel natural. Theyll serve you well for many years as long as you maintain proper oral care.
Benefits of dental implants include: improved appearance, better speech (dental implants are permanently adhered to the jawbone and, unlike dentures, wont slip or cause slurred speech), and regular chewing and eating capabilities (your new teeth will function like natural teeth, and you can eat all the foods you love). Theyre comfortable because theyre custom-crafted for your mouth.
If youre missing teeth and worried about your future smile, then have no fear because dental implants restore the look and function of teeth. Youll get a self-esteem boost with dental implants and feel like your complete self again.
Risks involved with dental implants include infection, nerve damage, damage to surrounding teeth, and sinus problems. This is why its important to visit an experienced and professional dentist like the team at Illahee Dental.

*UPDATE* 1/19/22 Recently my Dentist, Dr. Arthur, merged with Illahee Dental, and yesterday 1/18/22 was my first time seeing her new location. Ashley was my dental hygienist; she's funny, friendly, informative, and made me feel at ease, an excellent bedside manner! Of course, if anyone has read my previous review on Dr. Arthur, you would know that we find her gentle, caring, friendly and informative! The new office is more significant in size, has more staff, is very clean and tidy, just as a medical office should be; and the waiting area, a little more on the compact size, but reasonably comfy. A bit of a downside to the raving review is that the examination chairs lack comfort; I know and understand what most people are thinking, is there such a thing as a comfortable examination chair? To this day, I have yet to find a dental exam chair that I felt like I was resting on a cloud. I'm reasonably optimistic that eventually, some of the items will be replaced, including those chairs! But, don't let that dissuade you; if you are in the market for a new Dentist, you'll have excellent care with Dr. Arthur and staff. Her new location is at Illahee Dental 1344 NE McWilliams Road, Bremerton, Washington. They are directly behind Barker Creek Community school and within walking distance to Safeway. **Like I have always said, Please be kind to ALL living things, thank you for continuing to support our local businesses and jobs, which is extremely important, and stay safe!!** --------------------------- My husband and I were lucky to have found our favorite dentist that we started with years ago. We met Dr. Arthur when she was a dentist for Silverdale Dental Office several years ago. We were unhappy to hear when Dr. Arthur decided to move on to another dental group; unfortunately, it was pretty far out of our way to seek dental care. We remained with Silverdale Dental and ended up with another dentist, whom we liked, but then left to start her practice. One day my husband and I happen to be driving to our house and saw the name "Arthur Dental Group." Low and behold, it was our dentist from years past!! Besides having a lovely personality, she is also very gentle and has no problems explaining a situation or process that will occur. Her office appears to run smoothly and efficiently and is very clean and tidy. Her staff are well mannered and make you feel welcomed. Dr. Arthur takes care of all your basic dental needs along with cosmetic surgery, sleeping disorders, and more. She also does pediatric dentistry; she's so friendly I bet kids love her, you can't go wrong, and yes, I would recommend her! Dr. Arthur's location is 739 NE Riddell Rd, Bremerton, WA. **Supporting locally owned or small businesses supports our community; this is a difficult time for everyone, and every job matters; we need to stay healthy and stay strong together!!!**

I had recently moved to this area and found Dr. Lisa Arthur. I can not express enough how friendly and professional the staff were. Dr. Arthur went above and beyond to make sure my dental needs were addressed. Over 5 stars if I could.
