<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To get aesthetic implant-supported restorations by means of the all-ceramic crown fused to small-size titanium abutment and evaluate the quality of the restorations.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A small-size titanium abutment that had extremely thin circumferential collar and axial wall was fabricated, while a Cercon all-ceramic crown made with computer aided manufacture (CAM). The crown was fused to the abutment by firing the opaque porcelain. A total of 6 restorations in 5 patients were installed and assessed according to the California Dental Association (CDA) quality evaluation system.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the restorations were fabricated well and ranked in clinic evaluation excellent for surface, anatomical form, marginal quality, and color at baseline and one year after insertion, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The restoration of all-ceramic crown fused to titanium small-size abutment is a new aesthetic alternative for the implant-supported restoration.</p>
