Dental Implants & Oral Surgery for the Clark-Marathon Dairy Belt
From the dairy country west of Wausau — Colby, Abbotsford, Spencer, Loyal, and the surrounding towns — Bublik Dental is the area’s destination for implants and oral surgery. We also see patients on Wednesdays at our Stratford satellite office, right in the heart of this region. Dr. Jan Bublik has placed more than 11,000 implants over 30+ years, and Dr. William Shepard, a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, leads complex surgical care.
Why Clark-Marathon Dairy Belt Patients Choose Bublik Dental
The Gold Standard for Replacing Missing Teeth
Dental implants are, in Dr. Bublik’s own words, “the best option for replacing a missing tooth.” Unlike dentures or bridges, implants replace both the root and the crown — a permanent, natural-feeling solution that protects your jawbone and neighboring teeth.
Many patients in the dairy belt are closest to our Stratford satellite office on Legion Street, open Wednesdays, with full surgical care available at our main Wausau office the rest of the week. We welcome patients from across the Clark-Marathon Dairy Belt area — including Colby, Dorchester, Abbotsford, Unity, Spencer, Loyal, Greenwood, Owen, Withee, Athens, and Fenwood — for implants, oral surgery, TMJ care, and sedation dentistry, all under one roof in Wausau.
- ✓Permanent: With proper care, implants last a lifetime
- ✓Natural-looking: Indistinguishable from real teeth
- ✓Bone-preserving: Stimulates jawbone and prevents bone loss
- ✓No adhesives: Fixed in place — eat, speak, smile freely

Single Tooth Implant
Replace one missing tooth with a titanium implant post, abutment, and custom crown. No damage to adjacent teeth.

Implant Bridge
Replace 2-3 consecutive missing teeth using just two implants as anchors — no grinding down healthy teeth.

All-on-4 / All-on-X

Ideal for: Complex cases, maximum predictability
Bone Grafting + Implants
Even if you’ve been told you have insufficient bone, Dr. Bublik can prepare your jaw with grafting before implant placement.
Ideal for: Bone loss, previously denied candidates

Dr. Bublik evaluates your teeth, gums, and bone density using CBCT 3D imaging. You’ll receive a complete treatment plan with all costs upfront — no surprises.
Preparation (if needed)
If extractions, bone grafting, or sinus lifts are needed to prepare your jaw, these are completed first. Dr. Bublik handles all surgical procedures in-house.
Implant Placement
Using computer-guided surgery and German Argon implants, Dr. Bublik places the titanium posts with precision. Sedation options ensure your complete comfort.
Healing & Osseointegration
