The short answer on implant crowns.
An implant crown is the visible porcelain tooth attached to a healed dental implant. Making and fitting it takes two short visits over two to three weeks, and it's the final stage of implant treatment once the bone has grown around the post.
Because we place implants and restore them in the same office, the crown is designed with the position of the post already known. That avoids the awkward hand-off where two practices blame each other for a crown that doesn't sit right.
The crown either screws into the implant or cements onto an abutment. Screw-retained crowns are easier to remove later if anything needs servicing, and we'll explain which suits your case.

How much does implant crowns cost in Schaumburg?
We don't publish a price, because quoting a number before we've looked at your mouth would be a guess. Here's what actually moves the figure, and how to get a real one.
- The crown is priced separately from the implant post and any bone grafting
- Material and whether it's screw-retained or cemented affect the cost
- Coverage varies widely: some PPO plans pay toward the crown even when they exclude the implant
- We give you a written total for the whole implant sequence before it begins
We file claims with most major PPO plans. If you're uninsured, our membership plan is $499 or $699 a year and includes exams, X-rays and cleanings plus a discount on treatment. See what the membership plan covers.

Implant Crowns questions, answered.
Usually three to six months after the post is placed, because the bone needs to grow around it first. Cases with grafting can take longer. You're not left with a gap in the meantime: we can provide a temporary tooth for visible areas.
Typically not, and it often needs no numbing at all because the implant has no nerve. The gum around it can be slightly tender when the healing cap is removed. Most people find this appointment far easier than they expect.
Brush it like a normal tooth and clean underneath the contact points daily with floss, a floss threader, or a small interdental brush. Gum inflammation around an implant, called peri-implantitis, is the main long-term risk, and it's driven by plaque exactly like gum disease.
Yes. The implant post is the permanent part. If the crown chips, wears, or the shade no longer matches after other work, a new crown can be made onto the same post. Screw-retained crowns come off most easily for this.
That's the goal, and we take shade in daylight-balanced conditions with the tooth hydrated, because dry teeth look lighter. Matching a single front tooth is the hardest case in dentistry, and we'll be honest with you about it before starting.
