Is There Anything Easier for Restoring an Implant Than a Screw-retained e.max?

I just seated an implant crown made extra-orally. I grabbed a fixture level impression and poured it up last week. Seated a prefabricated abutment on the model and modfied the margins to where I wanted it. Scanned with CEREC and verified seat and contact. Bonded them together outside the mouth and polished the restoration to a 'spit shine' as they say in ... well, wherever! Anyway, seating this thing was the easiest thing in the world, and not having to clean up cement was the best thing. We just need some studies that show punching a hole through emax for this purpose is a valid approach. But so far, so good!!!
