Cement-Retained Restoration
Advantages of cement-retained crowns include a passive fit of the implant crown, avoiding the transfer of stress to the implants, excellent esthetic results and an ideal occlusal design.
An unaltered framework or abutment design decreases porcelain failure, allowing the use of conventional crown-and-bridge procedures.
In addition, with cemented restoration the implant abutment-crown micro-gap is sealed, preventing bacterial debris from migrating into the abutment-crown space.
