Placing a crown on the implant.

Asked for patient, 52 years Asked 3 Months ago

I have a implant in place with a abutment(screw/fixture). The crown is missing. Would you be able to put a crown ? How long will the full process take. And how much would it cost? Kind regards Ravi K

If the implant has fused to the bone, the next step is to expose the implant and scan the abutment and fabricate a crown. Should not take more than a week for the entire process

Hello Ravi, yes, in most cases we can place a new crown if the implant and abutment are compatible and in good condition. We'll first examine it and may need an X-ray. If everything is fine, it usually takes about 5–7 days. The cost depends on the implant system and crown type. Regards, Dr. Ishan Singh

Dental Wellness provides Crowns & Bridges and Dental Implants. If you already have an implant and the crown has come out, the dentist will need to examine the existing implant and surrounding area before confirming whether a new crown can be placed. Please bring any previous implant or treatment details if available.
