Dental Implants & Tooth Replacement
Dentist Serving Cedarburg, WI
Implants, implant dentures and bridges for Cedarburg patients, planned in 3D at our Mequon office.
Patients from Cedarburg often come to us when a tooth is missing or a denture no longer feels secure. We replace teeth with single implants, implant-supported bridges, full-arch options and implant dentures, and we also offer traditional bridges and partial dentures for patients who need a non-implant route. Planning starts with a free consultation that includes a CBCT 3D scan, so the dentist can see your jawbone in detail before recommending anything. Mequon borders Cedarburg to the south, and our Mequon office handles every step from the scan to the final restoration. Before treatment, the team reviews your insurance benefits and gives you a clear cost estimate.

Replacing Missing Teeth for Cedarburg Patients
From Cedarburg to Our Office
Cedarburg is a city in Ozaukee County, with Cedar Creek running through it and the Washington Avenue Historic District at its core. Mequon lies along its southern border. Our office is in Mequon on N Port Washington Road, and Cedarburg residents are among the patients we regularly see for implant and tooth replacement care.
Options for One Tooth or a Full Arch
- Single dental implants A titanium post set into the jaw supports a custom crown, replacing one tooth without involving its neighbors.
- Implant-supported bridges Several replacement teeth anchored to implants, for a gap of a few teeth in a row.
- All-on-4 and All-on-6 Four or six implants carrying a complete upper or lower arch of fixed teeth.
- Implant-supported dentures Dentures that clip onto implants for a firmer hold than adhesives.
- Bridges and partial dentures Non-implant routes when implants are not the right choice.
The Free Implant Consultation
The first implant visit is a free consultation, and it includes a CBCT 3D scan. That scan gives the dentist a detailed view of your jawbone, so the plan is built on your own anatomy rather than an estimate. The visit is relaxed, and it is the simplest way to get straight answers about whether implants suit you. You leave with a custom treatment plan and a clear picture of every option, with no obligation to go ahead.
How Treatment Usually Unfolds
- Consultation and exam of the gums and jawbone
- 3D imaging and a personalized treatment plan
- Placement of the implant post
- A healing period while the implant fuses with the jawbone
- The final crown, bridge or denture
If the bone has thinned since a tooth was lost, a bone graft can rebuild the support an implant needs. The timeline depends on the case, and it is mapped out before treatment begins.

Paying for Tooth Replacement
Many insurance plans contribute toward exams, X-rays, extractions, dentures or crowns but limit coverage on the implant posts themselves. Our team reviews your benefits and estimates your out-of-pocket cost before treatment. Third-party financing through CareCredit, Cherry, LendingClub Patient Solutions, Sunbit, Proceed Finance and Alphaeon Credit can spread the cost, with approval and terms set by each provider.

Cedarburg Patients: Frequently Asked Questions
- Is your office located in Cedarburg?
- No, the office is in Mequon, at 10033 N Port Washington Road, Suite 150, Mequon, WI 53092. Mequon borders Cedarburg to the south, and patients from Cedarburg and the rest of Ozaukee County are seen regularly. Implant planning, placement and the final restoration are all handled at the Mequon office. Call (262) 241-5558 to set up a consultation.
- Is the implant consultation really free?
- Call the office at (262) 241-5558 to confirm what the first implant consultation currently includes before you book. At the consultation, the dentist examines your gums and jawbone, reviews your medical history and talks through your goals. You leave with a treatment plan and a clear picture of your options, with no obligation to go ahead.
- Am I a candidate for dental implants?
- Most healthy adults with enough jawbone to anchor a post are candidates for implants. At the consultation the dentist reviews your medical history, takes 3D images and talks through your goals. If implants are not the right fit, a bridge, dentures or a combination may be. If bone has thinned, a bone graft can sometimes rebuild the support an implant needs.
- What is the difference between All-on-4 and single implants?
- A single implant replaces one tooth, while All-on-4 and All-on-6 use four or six implants to carry an entire upper or lower arch of fixed teeth. A few single implants can also support a small bridge for a gap of several teeth. The full-arch approach is designed to make the most of the bone you already have. The dentist will explain which fits your mouth at the consultation.
- Can implants hold my denture in place?
- Yes, implant-supported dentures attach to implants for a firm hold, stronger chewing and no slipping from adhesives. Some styles snap on and off so you can clean them, while others stay fixed and are removed only at the office. The dentist walks through both so you can choose the style that matches your routine.
- Will insurance cover my implant?
- It varies from plan to plan, and many policies limit coverage on the implant posts themselves. Many do help with exams, X-rays, extractions, dentures or crowns. The team reviews your benefits and estimates your out-of-pocket cost before treatment. Financing through CareCredit, Cherry, LendingClub Patient Solutions, Sunbit, Proceed Finance and Alphaeon Credit can make the remaining cost easier to manage.
- How long does the implant process take?
- It depends on your case, and the dentist maps out a personalized timeline before treatment begins. A single implant may take several months from placement to the final crown, because the implant needs time to fuse with the jawbone. Full-arch treatment can sometimes move faster. If a bone graft is needed first, that adds to the timeline.
