About 3 months for a permanent crown
Depends on lab aroun 10 days or less
I am surprised that your dentist did not give you complete information of the process of replacing a tooth with implant. Even more surprised that you did not ask. Every case is different but in general, it takes 3 to 5 month for the implant to integrate with the bone, than an abutment is placed over the implant and over the abutment the crown can be placed. My best advise: talk you your dentist!
Usually about three to four months.
it can be 4-6 months usually. It depends on the system and your body integrating the implant into your body. Think of it as a cast, the body needs time to allow healing for the best result. Ask your oral surgeon for more specific questions regarding the timing of final crown placement.
