design using the cloud-based image
transfer service Planmeca Romexis®
Cloud. As the service is an integrated
part of Romexis, the laboratory was able
to seamlessly quick launch the case files
in the Planmeca PlanCAD® Premium
software module, which was used to
design the abutment and the crown with
screw channels. The restorations were then
milled in the laboratory with a Planmeca
PlanMill® 50 S milling unit.

The final abutment was manufactured
using a prefabricated titanium abutment
block and IPS e.max CAD was used for
the crown on top of the abutment. Those
were post-processed, characterised and
then bonded together in the laboratory to
create a screw-retained restoration.

Finally, the screw-retained restoration
was placed on the implant. The laboratory-
milled crown based on the intraoral scan
was a perfect fit and did not need any
changes on the approximal surfaces. When
the restoration was placed, Lindroos made
only a minor change to the bite.
