This patient had a root canal-treated tooth that had a post and crown, which unfortunately broke off at the gumline. The goal was to restore function and create a natural-looking result.
The Implant, Abutment & Crown Process in Cary, NC
After reviewing treatment options, we extracted the broken tooth and placed a dental implant with the help of Dr. Brenegan, our periodontist. I then restored the implant using a custom abutment and crown.
The result demonstrates how careful planning with CBCT 3-D imaging and digital bite scans can help the implant emerge naturally from the gums. The crown’s color was custom-matched in the lab to blend seamlessly with the surrounding teeth, creating a natural, aesthetic smile. Close collaboration with the implant surgeon and dental lab ensured a precise and predictable outcome that the patient loved.
