Optimizing the esthetic outcome by using screw-retained implant abutment crowns: A 3-year clinical follow-up

Published:November 04, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.prosdent.2020.09.014

      Abstract

      This clinical report describes a ceramic complete-mouth rehabilitation with screw-retained implant abutment crowns, optimizing esthetics by combining the properties of ceramic materials. The abutments connected a titanium insert to a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) monolithic zirconia framework, offering improved esthetics and biologic response without negatively affecting the implant abutment interface. Lithium disilicate crowns were cemented extraorally on the abutments, resulting in a screw-retained restoration.
