Hey Everyone:

I refuse to pay $225.00 plus shipping for a UCLA to fabricate a screw-retained implant crown, and I seem to be getting more requests for these of late. Does anyone have a source for a compatible
component that is interchangeable and cost effective?? Tried Implants Direct but that is the one size
they don't make, wonder why???

As another option we've from time to time made a crown over an abutment and then put a screw access hole through it, letting the gp be more sure about abutment placement was the reason. They can or you can cement the crown to the abutment extraorally if you wish.

I for one am waiting for their products to be released here in the US. I think they are going through FDA hoops right now

Since your not the end user and did not choose the type and style of implant use what is there and charge accordingly...... I would bet that if you bought an off brand component and charged for it the doctor would not reduce the cost to the patient......
