Restorative care
Dental Implant Restorations in Schererville, IN
Once your implant is ready, we design and mill the crown that completes it, digitally scanned and precisely fitted, right here in our office. We also provide implant-supported dentures for a more secure, stable fit.
The basics
What Is an Implant Crown Restoration?
A dental implant is a titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. Once it has healed and integrated with the jawbone, it needs a crown to complete the restoration and give you back a functioning tooth.
At Crossroads, we design and mill that crown in-house, digitally scanned and fitted to your implant, the same restorative process we use for a same-day crown on a natural tooth.
Your options
Implant Restoration Options
Implant-supported dentures
2 to 4 implants anchor a denture in place, improving stability and function over a removable denture alone.
What we do
Designed and milled here
Every implant crown we restore is scanned, designed, and milled in our office.
Why it matters
Why Implant Support Helps
- A securely anchored denture means less worry about it shifting during speech or meals.
- Implant support helps preserve the jawbone, which naturally weakens once teeth are lost.
- An implant crown functions and feels like a natural tooth.
- Fewer adjustments over time compared to a standalone removable denture.
Which fits
Implant Crown vs. Implant-Supported Denture
An implant crown replaces a single missing tooth. Implant-supported dentures use 2 to 4 implants to anchor a full or partial denture, for patients missing more teeth who want more stability than a removable option alone provides. Learn more about dentures →

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you place dental implants?
We design, mill, and place the crown or denture that restores your implant. We'll talk through your options and the full picture of your treatment at a consultation.
How long does it take for an implant to be ready for a crown?
It varies by patient, since the implant needs time to heal and integrate with the jawbone. We'll let you know what timeline to expect at your visit.
Will an implant-supported denture feel different from a regular denture?
Most patients find it more stable and secure, since the denture is anchored to the implants rather than relying on suction or adhesive alone.
