This in vitro study compared the amount of remaining cement excess after cementation of implant-supported zirconia crowns using zinc phosphate (ZNPH) or calcium aluminate glass ionomer cement (CAGIC). Twenty zirconia crowns were cemented; ten with each cement type. Remaining cement excess was measured using pixel area calculation and weighing. ZNPH had significantly greater remaining cement excess than CAGIC (p=0.002 for pixels, p=0.005 for weight). CAGIC may be a more suitable cement for implant restorations to reduce peri-implant disease risk.
