Single Implant Crowns and Implant Bridges
Made Simple with All-on-EASY™
What Are Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges?
Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges are custom implant-supported prosthesis designed for dentists who want a structured, digital workflow with expert dental lab support to restore single implants and multiple short span implant bridges.
Built within the All-on-EASY™ concept, the workflow connects intraoral scanning, scan body selection, digital bite registration, single implant crown CAD design, implant bridge CAD design, and final production into one predictable pathway.
Key Features of Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges
Forma® Implant Solutions help the clinic and dental lab stay aligned from the first data upload to final delivery. What does it include?
Digital Implant Workflow
A connected digital workflow for single implant restoration and implant bridge restoration.
From IOS scans and scan bodies to CAD/CAM implant crown or CAD/CAM implant bridge design, every step is structured for clear communication between clinic and dental technicians.
Customised Crown and Bridge Design
Each custom implant crown and custom implant bridge is designed around the patient, the implant system, soft-tissue contours, emergence profile, contacts, occlusion, and restorative space.
Screw-Retained and Cement-Retained Crowns-the Flexibility
Support for screw-retained implant crowns, screw-retained implant bridges, cement-retained implant crowns, and cement-retained implant bridges, depending on the indication, aesthetics, access, and restorative plan.
Zirconia and metal-free Implant Prosthetic Options
Design and manufacturing support for CAD/CAM zirconia implant crown and CAD/CAM zirconia implant bridge cases, with material and workflow choices matched to the clinical situation.
Accuracy Through Data and Review
High-quality scan data, correct scan body selection, digital bite registration, and lab design review help reduce rework and support the fit of implant-supported crowns and bridges.
End-to-End Technical Support
Forma® connects dentists with implant-focused dental lab support for data checks, design communication, restorative options, and case progress visibility through the platform.
Screw-Retained or Cement-Retained
Forma® Implant Solutions supports both screw-retained and cement-retained implant restoration workflows. The right choice depends on clinical indication, implant angulation, aesthetic requirements, access position, retrievability, abutment design, and the dentist’s restorative preference.
Choose the Workflow That Fits the Case:
Option 1
Screw-Retained Implant Crown or Bridge
What is it
A retrievable implant prosthesis that can simplify
maintenance and avoid cement residue. Relevant for screw-retained implant crowns and implant screw-retained bridge searches.
Considerations
The screw access location and aesthetics must be considered during implant crown CAD design.
Option 2
Cement-Retained Implant Crown or Bridge
What is it
A cement-retained implant crown and cement-retained implant bridge is often considered when screw access would compromise aesthetics or occlusion.
Considerations
Involves cement handling and abutment design.
Hybrid / Case Specific Decision
What is it
Select the retention route that fits the implant position, prosthetic space, implant crown
contour, emergence profile, and final restorative goal.
Considerations
Our dental design team experts can support the workflow choice during case planning.
How Does the Forma® Implant Crown and Bridge Workflow Work?
Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges follow a clear three-step workflow:
Scan and Submit, CAD Design and Review, Production and Crown fixing. This keeps the dental lab process simple, transparent, and repeatable for both single implant prosthetic workflows and implant-supported bridge workflows.
Step 1: Scan and Submit
The clinic submits IOS scans, bite registration, shade information, implant system details, scan body information, photos if available, and the preferred retention/material workflow. For complex bridge cases, additional records can be uploaded according to the case requirements.
Step 2: CAD Design and Review
The dental lab validates the incoming data and creates the implant crown CAD design or implant bridge CAD design. The clinic reviews the design, comments, approvals, and case communication through the platform before production.
Step 3: Produce and Place
The final implant-supported single crown or implant-supported bridge is produced according to the approved design and delivered. The dentist places, verifies, and finalises the restoration chairside.
Why Choose Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges?
Implant crowns and bridges are the latest and best solution to partially missing teeth.
One Workflow for Crowns and Bridges
From single implant crown to custom implant bridge, the same structured All-on-EASY™ logic helps dentists keep implant planning simple and
repeatable.
Dental Lab Support You Can Reach
A dedicated design team and dental technicians for IOS validation, design communication, technical guidance, and review before production.
Customised for Each Patient
We follow the latest concepts of transmucosal designs for implant abutments and emergence profiles.
Designs are shaped around implant position, soft-tissue contours, restorative space, occlusion, and aesthetics instead of relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.
Flexible Retention Options
Screw-retained implant restoration and cement-retained implant
restoration workflows are both supported, helping dentists match the final design to the case.
Digital Accuracy and Fewer Surprises
CAD/CAM workflows, correct scan data, and review checkpoints help reduce back-and-forth and support fit, function, and predictable communication.
Scalable Across Indications
Start with a single implant crown, expand to implant-supported bridges, and connect full-mouth All-on-X cases to the broader All-on-EASY™ ecosystem.
Immediate Loading for Single Implant Crowns and Bridges
Does your case for a single implant call for Immediate Loading?
Then start with our Forma® Immediate workflow to place a
temporary implant crown or a provisional implant bridge soon after the surgery. Follow a structured step-by-step workflow on a dedicated platform to plan case, choose surgical guides, upload IOS and face scans and review design files. Choose from the ”Design-only” or the ”Design and Print” services to offer a 3Dprinted implant crown or implant bridge to your patients.
Are you ready to start scanning your next implant case?
Partner with Forma® Implant Crowns and Bridges and the All-on-EASY™ concept to benefit from a predictable digital workflow, expert CAD/CAM design support, and high quality implant restorations delivered with confidence.
FAQs
-
Do you support both screw retained implant crowns and cement retained implant crowns?
Yes. Forma® Implant Solutions supports screw-retained and cement-retained implant prostheses. The right approach depends on implant position, screw access hole, aesthetic requirements, occlusion, abutment design, and the dentist’s restorative preference.
-
What is the difference between a screw retained implant crown and cement retained implant crown?
A screw-retained implant crown is fixed with a prosthetic screw and is the screw and the implant abutment typically retrievable. A cement-retained implant crown is seated on an abutment with dental cement and can be useful when screw access would compromise aesthetics or function. The final decision should be case-specific.
-
Can Forma® design a custom abutment and implant crown?
Yes. Custom abutment called the Forma® Individual Abutment can be used to accurately reproduce the patient-specific emergence profile, gingival contour, or crown shape, angle, and contour. The lab can support the design around the implant system and clinical data submitted.
-
Can I use my existing scanner and implant system?
The All-on-EASY™ concept is designed around flexible digital workflows. Compatibility depends on the scanner, implant system, scan body, and file type, and please reach out to us to know more.
