Dental implant without a crown

Dear Doctor:

Is it necessary to put a crown on my implant? One of my family (dental doctor) suggested not to keep a crown, as in the long term it will create pressure on your Jaws and lead to tremendous pain.

I am attaching my X-rays.
please please help me,I have inserted implant in Oct-2011.

Crown on implant

I can see no reason from the x-rays provided not to place a crown on this implant. A properly placed impland and a good fitting crown should give you no reason for concern.

I have 4 implants that have been ready for crowns. (2 lower left, 2 upper right). I have been stalling about getting the crowns. I am 71y/o & don't want the additional outrageous cost of adding the crowns. I have been doing fine without them. Is it really necessary to get the crowns?

Thanks NEW
