    Hi Dr, what happens if your gums recedes with implant bridge? Won’t it show gaps?

      Recession can happen in anyone but in patients with fair and better bone and gum tissue, we see very little recession. Why? Because we don't remove bone before placing implants. The bone removal is the start of massive recession that we try to avoid. So, while recession can happen, it is mostly dependent upon the surgical protocol. In our cases, we may get 0.5 - 2mm of recession when it happens. The All-on-4 technique is somewhere between 4-8 mm in the average patient.

    Which is better for the posterior screw retained dental crowns noble metal or high noble metal. I have noble metal which lacks the yellow gold color is has a dark copper tone

      Either is fine but most for crowns, we don't use metal anymore. EMAX (lithium disilicate) or zirconium is just fine.

      Gold is a lost art no longer taught in dentistry. Gold is durable, malleable and has a thermal expansion
      and wear that of natural teeth.

      @@philipjones5364 you are correct - for natural teeth. Your question specifically mentioned, “screw-retained”, which is on implants. So, my answer was in regards to implant crowns, not crowns on natural teeth. And, yes, gold is still an excellent option for natural teeth! Softer, and kinder. (Although, many patients prefer tooth colored restorations…)

      There is a Dentist that specializes in gold restorations. Dr. Richard Stevenson who does amazing gold inlays, onlays, and amazing tear drop gold foil fillings. No other material have been used in dentistry longer than gold. Dr. Stevenson believes that cast gold restorations can be done esthetically pleasing leaving much enamel intact with beautiful margins using JRVT gold high noble yellow gold.

      I never had a Dentist recommend me gold inlays or onlays for my posteriors instead they used composite. I learned 40 years later after three large amalgam fillings and ugly yellow composites. As for implants I have two screw retained noble gold crowns and I am very pleased.
