Effect of cement type, luting protocol, and ceramic abutment material on the shade of cemented titanium-based lithium disilicate crowns and surrounding peri-implant soft tissue: a spectrophotometric analysis

Various cements, core ceramic materials and airborne particle abrasion prior to bonding can adversely affect the color of Ti-base supported ceramic crowns and peri-implant soft tissue. However, zirconia CAD-CAM copings and an opaque cement can effectively mask this darkening.
