When teeth go missing, your smile is compromised. Your oral health, chewing power, self-confidence, and appearance all take a hit. That’s where permanent dental implants come in. Dr. Angela Bauer from Cambridge Family Dental in Cambridge, Wisconsin, can restore all the features of a healthy, beautiful smile with implant treatment. These FAQs explain more about the benefits of dental implants.
Implants aren’t replacement teeth. They’re small, titanium screws that support your new teeth. Dr. Bauer will insert one or more implants inside your jawbone surgically, and they will integrate with your bone to function like artificial tooth roots. Once the osseointegration process is complete, we’ll attach connecting abutments and your new teeth to restore your grin.
Yes, as natural-looking as your real teeth! The implants are hidden under your gumline where they can’t be seen and function like real tooth roots in stabilizing your new teeth. You’ll be able to smile, eat, laugh, and talk confidently without losing teeth. Porcelain restorations can be customized to resemble natural teeth in color, size, shape, and sheen. By the end of your treatment, your smile will look, function, and feel real. The gift of a beautiful, new smile can be yours with dental implants.
Implants have a 98% success rate, making them an excellent choice for replacing lost teeth. You contribute to their success by taking good care of your new teeth. Good oral hygiene, routine checkups and cleanings, a healthy diet, and good lifestyle habits will keep your new teeth in good shape long-term.
Implants are versatile enough to meet all restorative dental needs. Single implants paired with dental crowns are your best bet for replacing individual missing teeth. If you’re missing several teeth close together, an implant bridge can fill that gap seamlessly. To restore your entire smile, Dr. Bauer can have an implant-supported denture custom-crafted for you. It only takes four implants to support an entire upper or lower teeth arch, making this treatment very feasible.
Your implants can be placed in one day. However, depending on the complexity of your treatment, the osseointegration process can take months to complete. Once completed, however, implants can give you a lifetime of quality use.
Implant surgery isn’t painful as it’s done under anesthesia to keep you from discomfort and pain. Dr. Bauer also offers many options for relaxing, stress-free treatment.
Good general health, oral health, and jawbone health are the basic requirements for implant candidates, although poor jawbone density can be resolved with bone grafting. A consultation with Dr. Bauer is the first step to determining whether implants fit you well.

Cambridge, Wisconsin. The most important part of my practice is taking care of my patients in a
compassionate and honorable way. I will treat you like I treat my own family and friends, with utmost
honesty and your best interests at heart at all times.
Because my practice is a locally-owned small business and not a corporation, we can focus on doing the

wildlife from our treatment rooms. We even have blankets and headphones for your comfort.
I utilize only the most modern and proven techniques and materials in treatment. That way, my patients
get all the benefits of the best care possible. We have all the latest technologies, including digital
scanners for optimal results, digital x-rays for precision, and even intraoral cameras to take pictures
of teeth. That way, if you do need treatment, we can show you exactly why, so there is no uncertainty.
I have been in practice for over 20 years, and during that time I have strived to be the best dentist
possible for my patients. In 2017 I was honored with a Fellowship Award from the Academy of General Dentistry. Just this year, the same Academy awarded me with a Mastership, which only two percent of practicing dentists currently hold. That is my practice! I am Dr. Angela Bauer, and I invite you to come
and see why we are different.
