This is an open ended question. However, generally speaking for a single missing tooth replacement, its takes anywhere form 3 to 6 months after placement to get the crown. However, in some situations the dentists are able to place an immediate temporary implant crown at the time of placement as well. Ofcourse, more specific details can be answered by your dentist.
After a dental implant is placed, it typically takes about 6 months for the implant to fully fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once healed, a custom dental crown can be securely attached to restore full function and aesthetics.

Typically it is 3 or 4 months until the implant is integrated with the bone. Ask your dental surgeon.
The average wait time from when an implant is placed to when it can be "loaded" with a crown is 3-4 months. It is dependant on the quality of bone and sturdiness of the implant.
