Hi,

Typically, the implant needs between 2-4 months to fuse to the bone before the crown portion can be started. It however depends on the torque established at the time of surgery. But on average, it takes approximately 4 months to complete the implant/crown.
Hope this answered your question.

In most cases we wait 3-5 months for an implant to heal, depending on where in the mouth it is, what type of implant, bone quality, etc.

After implant placement, I wait 3 to 4 months. There are tests that can be done that tells us if the tooth is ready to be restored.
