A Strong Foundation for Your Smile
Dental implants integrate with the jawbone to create a secure foundation for replacement teeth. This added stability can help maintain facial structure, reduce bone loss over time, and provide a more comfortable alternative to traditional removable dentures.

Every smile is different, which is why Wauwatosa Dental Arts offers multiple dental implant solutions based on your oral health needs, goals, and the number of missing teeth. Our team will help you understand your options and recommend a treatment plan designed for long-term comfort, stability, and function.
Single Tooth Dental Implants
A single implant can replace one missing tooth without relying on neighboring teeth for support. The restoration is custom-made to blend naturally with your smile while helping restore strength and everyday function.
Implant-Supported Bridges
For patients missing several teeth in a row, implant-supported bridges provide added stability and support compared to traditional bridges. This option helps restore chewing ability while preserving surrounding teeth and jawbone health.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implants can help secure dentures more comfortably by reducing slipping and movement during eating and speaking. Many patients choose implant-supported dentures for improved confidence, comfort, and stability throughout the day.

For patients with several missing or damaged teeth, we can discuss a customized treatment plan to restore function and appearance.

The short answer
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible titanium that are placed into the jawbone to support a custom crown, bridge, or denture. Because they integrate with the jawbone, they create a secure foundation that can improve chewing and speaking, help preserve jawbone health, and provide better stability than removable dentures. Treatment begins with a consultation and digital imaging, followed by implant placement, a period of healing, and the final restoration.
Dental Implants: Frequently Asked Questions
- What are dental implants?
- Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible titanium that are placed into the jawbone to support a dental crown, bridge, or denture. They are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Over time the implant integrates with the jawbone, which creates a secure foundation for the replacement tooth. That stability is why implants can help improve chewing ability and support long-term oral function.
- Are dental implants a permanent solution for missing teeth?
- Dental implants are considered a long-term tooth replacement option, and with proper care they can last for many years. Good oral hygiene and regular dental visits are what help them do so. Daily brushing and flossing protect the implant, and healthy gums are important for long-term implant success.
- Who is a good candidate for dental implants?
- Many healthy adults with missing teeth may qualify for dental implants, and good gum health and adequate jawbone support are important factors. During your consultation, the team will evaluate your oral health, review your goals, and discuss your treatment options. Digital imaging is part of the evaluation and treatment planning stage. If implants are not the right option, bridges and dentures are other ways to replace missing teeth.
- Can dental implants replace multiple missing teeth?
- Yes, dental implants can replace a single missing tooth, support a bridge for multiple missing teeth, or stabilize dentures for patients missing most or all of their teeth. For several missing teeth in a row, implant-supported bridges provide added stability and support compared to traditional bridges. Implant-supported dentures help reduce slipping and movement during eating and speaking. For patients with several missing or damaged teeth, a customized full smile restoration plan can also be discussed.
- Do dental implants look natural?
- Yes, implant restorations are custom-made to blend with your natural teeth in color, shape, and size, which helps create a natural-looking smile. The crown, bridge, or denture attached to the implant is the part you see when you smile. Because implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, they also restore everyday function. They can also help maintain facial structure by reducing bone loss over time.
- What is the dental implant process like?
- The process typically includes a consultation, digital imaging, implant placement, healing time for the implant to integrate with the jawbone, and placement of the final crown, bridge, or denture. At the consultation and exam, the team reviews your oral health, discusses your goals, and determines whether implants are the right option for you. Digital imaging then supports treatment planning before the implant is placed. After healing, the final restoration completes the tooth.
- How long does it take to heal after dental implant placement?
- Healing times vary depending on the patient and treatment plan, but in many cases the implant needs several months to fully integrate with the jawbone before the final restoration is placed. During that time the implant becomes part of a secure foundation for the replacement tooth. Your treatment plan will outline the timing that applies to your case. The final crown, bridge, or denture is placed once integration is complete.
- Are dental implants better than removable dentures?
- Dental implants provide greater stability than traditional removable dentures and can improve comfort, chewing ability, and confidence while speaking and eating. Removable dentures rest on the gums, while implants integrate with the jawbone. That integration also helps preserve jawbone health and reduce bone loss over time. For patients who prefer dentures, implants can be used to secure them and reduce slipping.
- How do I care for dental implants?
- Care for dental implants much as you would natural teeth, with daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups. Maintaining healthy gums is important for long-term implant success. Regular visits let the dentist check the implant, the restoration, and the surrounding gums. Good daily habits help the implant support long-term oral function.
