What Is a Screw-Retained Porcelain Crown?

A screw-retained porcelain crown is a permanent restoration that is securely fixed onto a dental implant using a tiny screw. It provides a highly aesthetic and functional solution without the need for cement, making it easier to maintain and remove if needed.

When Is It Preferred?

• In single or multiple implant restorations

• For anterior restorations where aesthetics are critical

• When avoiding cement-related complications

• To minimize the risk of peri-implantitis

• In cases where the crown may need to be removed in the future

How Does the Screw System Work?

1. An abutment is connected to the implant

2. The porcelain crown is fabricated to fit and is screwed into place

3. The screw access hole is sealed with composite material

4. The crown can be removed and reinstalled without damage if necessary

What Are the Advantages?

• No residual cement – healthier gums

• Easy maintenance and cleaning

• Crown can be removed if adjustments are needed

• Strong, natural-looking, and long-lasting

• Excellent results in aesthetic regions

What Is the Treatment Process?

• Once the implant heals, digital impressions are taken

• The crown is designed and produced using CAD/CAM systems

• Fitting and screwing are completed in 1–2 sessions

• May be combined with smile design planning

• Long-term success with regular follow-ups
