A member asked:

If a newly licensed general dentist can place a crown on a tooth, he/she should be able to handle the installing of an implant supported crown?

Usually: But depends on degree of difficulty. Sometimes the services of a Dentist with more experience, or a specialist Prosthodontist, is required. Trust the Dentist, even a newly minted one, to triage your problem and suggest an optimum course of treatment.
