[QUOTE="rkm rdt, post: 55213, member: 83"] If it is a white abutment then it is probably made of zirconia. Zirconia cannot be etched .However ,if the abutment could be unscrewed ,then the lab could fire a thin wash of ceramic over the surface area. This would give better retention for the crown to adhere to but be prepared for a new crown in case the old crown doesn't re-seat properly. [/QUOTE]
