[QUOTE="RJS8669, post: 157130, member: 5742"] If that's the case, shouldn't the screw-retained be less expensive? Using Glidewell fees - a custom abutment would run you about $108 inc. shipping if you designed, then you would have mill the coping (we routinely do a second scan of the abutment on the model) and apply the ceramic. A screw-retained would be done with a Ti insert ($47 inc. screw) and you are milling the zirconia framework and again applying the ceramic, then cementation which takes all of about two minutes. Just seems like the screw-retained pfz is less time consuming and logistially easier - at least for me. Maybe I'm missing something... [/QUOTE]
