Implant Crown (Zirconia)

The implant crown is the visible, tooth-shaped restoration fixed onto a dental implant once it has integrated with the bone. At Kamil Turek Stomatologia it is made from zirconia ceramic seated on a titanium abutment, chosen for strength and a natural appearance. The crown is colour-matched to surrounding teeth and shaped to restore biting function. It is the final stage of implant treatment, completing the replacement of a missing tooth.

An implant crown is the part of an implant restoration that you actually see and chew with. After a dental implant has been placed and has integrated with the jawbone, an abutment connects the implant to a custom-made crown that sits at gum level in place of the missing tooth. At Kamil Turek Stomatologia the crown is fabricated from zirconia, a strong, tooth-coloured ceramic, and seated on a titanium abutment for a durable, biocompatible result. The process involves taking an impression or digital scan of the implant and the surrounding teeth so the crown can be milled to the correct shape, size and shade. Once ready, it is tried in, adjusted for a comfortable bite and fixed in place, either screwed or cemented depending on the case. Zirconia is favoured for implant crowns because it combines high strength with good aesthetics and is well tolerated by the gums, helping the restoration blend with natural teeth. A well-made implant crown restores normal chewing and the appearance of a complete smile. Day-to-day care is the same as for a natural tooth — thorough brushing, cleaning around the gum margin, and regular professional hygiene visits help protect the surrounding tissues and keep the restoration in good condition for years. The crown is the final step of implant treatment and is quoted separately from the implant fixture itself.
