Crown on implant: screw-retained or cemented
Crown fixed onto an implant abutment, screw-retained or cemented, to replace a missing tooth.
What is a crown on implants?
Crowns on implants are placed on the abutment that is screwed to the implant, to simulate the original crown of the tooth.
Crown on implant step by step
Measurements are taken either digitally with scanners or using traditional impression materials, so that they are then made in the dental laboratory. Several tests are done to verify they are well adapted.
At ENIQ we do it with a digital scanner and thanks to our digital workflow system we can make it on the spot, so you leave with your crown home, without needing multiple appointments.
In case of aesthetic or functional needs, the crown could be placed at the same time as the implant is placed, this is called an immediate loading implant.
If several adjacent teeth are missing, a bridge on two implants can replace three crowns without placing one implant per tooth. If you still have the tooth and it only needs protection, no implant is needed: one of our dental crowns is placed directly on it. One of the possible materials is zirconia, strong, durable and natural-looking: we explain what a zirconia crown is like.
How many appointments are needed for an implant with its crown?
Appointments for an implant are usually the following:
Treatment appointments
Implant placement
Implant placement at the first appointment.
Crown on the implant
Crown on the implant after three months.
Provisional
Option of fixed/removable provisional for aesthetics or functionality.
Taking measurements
Taking measurements for the crown and verification in subsequent appointments.
Final placement
Final placement of the crown at a third appointment.
Total appointments: Surgery + check-up + 3 appointments for the crown (if tests are satisfactory). At ENIQ, thanks to our digital workflow, we can significantly reduce the number of appointments.
Types of crown on implant
There are two main types of crowns on implants, each with its specific characteristics:
Screw-retained crown on implants
The crown is attached to the abutment and then to the implant by means of a through screw.
Cemented crown on implant
The crown is attached to the implant abutment with cement and the abutment is screwed to the implant.
The choice between screw-retained or cemented crown depends on the implant location and whether the area is more or less aesthetic. The important thing is that the professional provides a correct occlusion to minimize the possibility of failures.
