Dental implants are the most advanced and permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. At Family Dental Practice in Watertown, WI, Dr. Buchholtz and Dr. Garro provide expert implant dentistry to restore function, confidence, and long-term oral health.
A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth with a titanium post that integrates with your jawbone. The result is a secure, natural-looking tooth that feels and functions like your own.
If you’re searching for a lasting alternative to bridges or dentures, dental implants offer unmatched stability and durability.
The implant not only provides a strong, secure base for a crown or to hold a partial or denture, it helps regenerate the natural bone structure in through a process called osseointegration. The term comes from the Latin osseus–meaning bony–and integrare–which means ‘to make whole’. Through this process, the implant becomes a permanent part of your jawbone, resulting in a secure, confident, and stronger smile.
One of the greatest things about working with patients is seeing their reaction to their new smile. If you have been living with missing teeth for a while, you may have forgotten how it feels to smile without worry. Dental implants can help you regain that sense of confidence and joy.
Implant treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation at our Watertown, WI, dental practice. We evaluate your gum health, jawbone structure, and overall oral condition using advanced imaging.
If bone density is insufficient, bone grafting may be recommended to strengthen the implant site. Once the foundation is ready, the titanium implant is surgically placed and allowed to heal.
Over several months, the implant becomes permanently integrated with your jawbone. After healing, a custom crown is attached, completing your restoration.
Sedation options are available to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure.
Implant restoration usually refers to the placement of the final crown at the end of the implant process, but Family Dental Practice can also assist with existing implants that have failed or broken or soft tissue recession surrounding a compromised implant. We would be happy to take a look!
If you currently wear dentures or are tired of treating the same teeth repeatedly, implant-supported dentures are a strong, long-lasting, and natural-looking solution. The general process requires removal of any severely decayed or problem teeth, the placement of implants in the jawbone, and finally the secure attachment of full-arch dentures. Ask us about implant-supported denture options!
