   [2] [3] [4] During initial development of implant retained teeth, all crowns were attached to the teeth with screws, but more recent advancements have allowed placement of crowns on the abutments with dental cement (akin to placing a crown on a tooth). This has created the potential for cement, that escapes from under the crown during ...

[1] [2] They are designed for screw-retained group restorations, [3] which are often used in combination with angled dental implants [4] and whole arch replacements, as well as screw fixation of bridges made of zirconium or metal-ceramic group restorations to the implant.
