An implant crown is the visible replacement tooth that completes a single-tooth dental implant. At Kreuzer Family Dentistry in Midlothian, we plan implant crowns to fit your bite and blend with your smile.
An implant replaces the tooth root and supports a custom crown, usually through a connector called an abutment. The crown restores the chewing surface and appearance of the missing tooth. Implant placement and crown restoration are different stages of care.
We review your implant’s readiness for restoration and plan the crown’s shape and shade. Once the implant is ready, we fit and attach the crown and check your bite. We explain how to clean around it and monitor it at follow-up visits.
