Do I need a separate appointment for the abutment?

Yes. Usually, it’s a quick outpatient visit once the implant has healed.

Will I feel the abutment?

You might feel a little pressure or tenderness at first, but it settles quickly. Once the crown is placed, you won’t even notice it.

Can the abutment come loose?

Rarely—but it can happen. That’s why follow-up visits matter.
