By Dr. Eastwood – Summerbrook Dental & Implants, Fort Worth, TX
If you’ve been researching implant options, you may have come across screwless dental implants. At Summerbrook Dental & Implants, Dr. Eastwood offers this modern approach for patients who want a secure, natural-looking restoration without the need for a screw access hole through the crown.
What Are Screwless Dental Implants?
Traditional implant crowns are often held in place with a small screw. While this method is effective, the screw channel may sometimes affect the appearance or strength of the crown. Screwless dental implants, also known as cement-retained implants, use a special abutment and high-strength dental cement to hold the crown securely in place—without visible access holes.
This design can make the implant crown look more like a natural tooth while still providing excellent stability for chewing and speaking.
Benefits of Screwless Dental Implants
Patients who choose screwless dental implants enjoy several advantages:
- More natural appearance – No screw hole means the crown looks just like a real tooth.
- Secure fit – Strong bonding keeps the crown firmly attached.
- Comfortable feel – Smooth surfaces and custom abutments improve gum health and fit.
- Long-lasting results – With proper care, these implants can last for decades.
