Course Description:   Restorative Considerations for Implant-Supported Single Crowns

Summary:

Join us for an in-depth, clinically focused presentation exploring key restorative factors that influence the long-term success of implant-supported single crowns. Topics will include:

  • Abutment-implant connection design (platform switching, microgap)
  • Effects of abutment disconnection/reconnection
  • Retention type: screw-retained vs. cement-retained, custom vs. stock abutments
  • Optimal restorative materials
  • Comprehensive review of restorative contours, including emergence profile management and contour design strategies

Backed by current literature—this session will blend evidence-based concepts with practical clinical applications.
