The dentist I used only does the implants. I looked at the one stop dentists who do it all but felt that implant surgery is a speciality in itself and wanted a dentist who whose practice focused on that. It takes 4-6 months strong bone healing to occur and I needed to be within a certain range of his testing before he authorized the crown placements. I had the implant in August then saw him in 2 weeks following surgery then again in January and at that time the bone healing was within range for the crowns to be placed. I went to my regular dentist and will have the crowns put on this week. Of course there is a separate charge from my regular dentist for the 2 crowns. Implants and crowns are costly but to me it was well worth it. I want to have a full set of teeth.
