The Local Implant Guy says he always tries to place the implant so that
the abutment can be cemented to facilitate both insertion of the crown
and removal, should the need arise. This means angling the implant to
the labial up front. According to him, that the referring generalist
should have to slog through the reduction of a titanium oxide abuttment
is nothing but unnecessary bull***, and such and endeavor favors nobody
but the surgeon. EVERY subsequent phase of the prostho process is more
$$$ needlessly. All your profit is eaten up by the lab.

Seeing as how he is a generalist speciallizing in implants (and so he
has seen the whole process many times), I'd think he knows what is
about. He also knows Branemark personally. So, take this as food for
thought.
