Crown implants are artificial tooth roots—usually made of titanium—that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once healed, they serve as a stable foundation for a custom-crafted dental crown that looks and functions just like a natural tooth. A connector piece, known as an abutment, joins the implant and the crown securely in place.
Implant-supported crowns help restore the aesthetics of your smile and also support jawbone health and prevent shifting of neighboring teeth.
Getting a crown implant typically takes multiple appointments over several months—but the long-term benefits make it worthwhile.
Step 1: Consultation & Imaging
We begin with a comprehensive exam and digital X-rays to assess your jaw health and determine the best course of action.
Step 2: Implant Placement
Under local anesthesia, the titanium implant is precisely placed into your jawbone. We’ll then guide you through the healing process as the implant fuses naturally with the bone (osseointegration), typically over 3–4 months.
Step 3: Abutment & Crown Placement
Once healing is complete, we place the abutment and take impressions for your custom crown. Your final visit involves securely attaching the crown, giving you a natural-looking, fully functional smile.
