A non-metallic crown attached to an osseointegrated implant is necessary to restore aesthetics and function in visible areas. These crowns are typically fabricated using materials like ceramics or composite resins, ensuring a natural appearance that blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth. Non-metallic crowns are particularly useful for anterior teeth, where aesthetics are a priority. The procedure involves precise placement and bonding to ensure optimal retention and comfort.
Providing a natural appearance while restoring chewing efficiency and preventing bone loss enhances the patient’s confidence and satisfaction. Non-metallic crowns are highly durable, reducing the risk of fractures or debonding over time. Additionally, they provide excellent marginal integrity, minimizing the risk of recurrent decay or infection. The restoration also ensures the tooth remains functional and aesthetically acceptable, particularly in areas visible when smiling.
Ensure proper bonding and occlusion to avoid premature wear or failure. Pay close attention to the shade selection to ensure the crown matches the surrounding teeth. Use advanced bonding techniques to ensure a strong and durable bond, reducing the risk of debonding or failure. Educate the patient on proper care and maintenance of the crown, emphasizing the importance of avoiding habits like grinding or clenching.
