Is there any bad consequences of removing a permanently cemented crown in dental implant? Got my dental implant crown placed 4 weeks ago. I hate the color because i see a gray shadow in tooth my dentist said he can remove it by braking it and making a new crown and no need to replaced abutment.

Answer: Removing crown shouldn't break titanium It should not cause a problem. Remember both implant and abutment are made of titanium. If it was made with a zirconium abutment, there may be a slight concern of damaging the abutment. I think you need to ask why there is a dark shadow. It may well be, in fact, the abutment or the tissue thickness needs to be improved. It's been a while since I made metal ceramic crowns on implants, and sometimes, depending on the quality of the metal that was used, if some recession occurred, you would see a dark shadow around the neck of the gum line. Without any pictures, its hard for me to really see what's going on, but if you don't like what you see, then just be ready to do whatever is necessary, including changing out the abutment.
