Abstract

The advent of cylindric titanium implants and the prevalence of periodontal disease have necessitated a restoration that facilitates the performance of oral physiotherapy. The use of the conical crown as a metallic covering over natural teeth and implants--with a suprastructure that is retained through a specific degree of convergence without cement or screws--allows access for enhanced oral hygiene practices, while providing for esthetic and functional goals.
