What is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants are permanent, natural-looking replacements for missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants mimic the structure of natural teeth, consisting of:
Titanium post – Acts as an artificial tooth root, fusing with the jawbone for stability.
Abutment – Connects the implant post to the final restoration.
Crown or prosthesis – The visible part of the implant that looks and functions like a natural tooth.
Unlike traditional dentures, dental implants prevent bone loss, preserve facial structure, and restore full oral function.

How Does Implant Dentistry Work?
The dental implant process involves several steps to ensure a secure, long-lasting result:
- Initial Consultation – We evaluate your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability for dental implants in Milwaukee, WI.
- Bone Grafting (If Needed) – If the jawbone lacks sufficient density, a graft may be recommended to strengthen the implant foundation.
- Implant Placement – A titanium implant post is surgically inserted into the jawbone.
- Healing Period (Osseointegration) – The implant fuses with the bone over 3-6 months, ensuring stability.
- Final Restoration – Once healed, a custom implant crown or full arch prosthetic is securely attached.
What Are the Advantages of Dental Implant Surgery?
Patients choose dental implant surgery in Milwaukee, WI for their unmatched benefits, including:
- Permanent, long-lasting results – Designed to last 20+ years with proper care.

Single-Tooth Replacement
Tooth loss starts a cascade of events that leads to bone loss and migration of teeth into the space that the tooth was occupying. Replacement of extracted teeth helps mitigate some of the adverse effects that are caused by the loss of these teeth. You may choose not to have a tooth replaced, and your dentist and oral and maxillofacial surgeon may advise you not to replace a tooth. If you are advised to have a replacement, you will be informed that you have a few replacement options.
Replacement Options
A single dental implant can replace a missing or extracted tooth independently of the surrounding teeth. It requires planning by the oral and maxillofacial surgeon and coordination of care with your dentist or prosthodontist. With the use of the Yomi® Robotic Assisted Surgery, the planning process is more precise, and the implant placement is efficient and accurate.
Generally, an implant can be placed a few months after a tooth extraction. However, and in select cases, an immediate implant can be placed. Healing time, called Osseointegration, is allowed. Depending on the type of bone that the implant is placed in, this can range from 2 to 4 months. Once that time has lapsed, Dr. Khader will ensure that the implant is stable via clinical and radiographic examination. The implant will then receive an abutment which will serve as the base or foundation of the final crown. The crown may be held in place with a screw or with cement.

Immediate Tooth Replacement
In select cases, Dr. Khader will be able to remove the tooth in question and place a dental implant immediately. This process will minimize the time between tooth loss and replacement. Even though the dental implant will still have to go through a process of osseointegration (fusing to the bone), you may be able to have a temporary crown placed on the same day as the implant placement.

Multiple Tooth Replacement
An implant supported bridge is a restorative solution for spaces where three or more adjacent teeth are missing. This restoration typically requires two implants to support the bridge that provides a functional and aesthetic replacement for a patient’s natural teeth.

Fully Edentulous (Toothless) Solutions
For patients who are missing all of their teeth and require a full mouth restoration, implant retained dentures or implant supported dentures may be an alternative to traditional dentures. These solutions can simulate the look and feel of natural teeth and remain in place with the implants acting as anchors. Using implants for retention or support of dentures allows for a smaller and more comfortable base and less shifting of the prosthesis during use.
Implant Retained Dentures
Using two to four implants, the removable denture will “snap” in place allowing for a more secure denture fit. The denture can be made slightly smaller and more comfortable. The removable denture will require less or no denture adhesive material and will provide a better fit. The restorative dentist or prosthodontist will connect small ring attachments or a connecting bar to the dental implants to allow for the denture to snap into place.
Implant Supported Dentures
Using four to six implants, a toothless jaw can be fitted with a fixed prosthesis to replace the missing teeth. The prosthesis can be much smaller than a traditional denture and is not removable by the patient. It is usually screwed into the dental implants that act as anchors in the upper of the lower jaw. Dr. Khader will work closely with your restorative denture or prosthodontist to plan this procedure.
Am I a Suitable Candidate for Dental Implant Treatment?
You may be a good candidate for implant dentistry in Milwaukee, WI if you:
- Have one or more missing teeth.
- Possess sufficient jawbone density (or are willing to undergo bone grafting).
- Maintain good oral and overall health.
- Are a non-smoker or willing to quit to improve healing.

What Is the Recovery Time After Getting Dental Implant Care?
Recovery varies by patient but follows this general timeline:
- 1-2 days of minor discomfort after implant placement.
- 3-6 months for osseointegration (bone fusion).
- Final restoration is placed once healing is complete.
Factors like oral hygiene, bone quality, and overall health impact healing time.
How Should I Care for My Dental Implants?
Caring for dental implants in Milwaukee is simple and mirrors routine oral hygiene:
- Brush and floss daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush.
- Use non-abrasive toothpaste to protect the implant surface.
- Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol to preserve gum health.
- Schedule regular checkups for professional cleanings and implant evaluations.
How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Compare:
- Dental Implants: 20+ years with good hygiene.
- Dental Bridges: 10-15 years.
- Dentures: 5-8 years before requiring replacement.
Regular professional checkups and good oral hygiene are key to maximizing longevity.
