Abstract

See full text

A dental implant system that dramatically simplifies implantation of a dental implant at an implant site. The dental implant system includes a threaded dental implant having a mounting end with an internal, threaded, axial bore. A healing cap is threadably engaged with the internal, axial bore prior to implantation. The healing cap also includes engagement features, such as a plurality of indentations, that permit secure engagement of a dental driving tool with the healing cap. Thus, upon engagement with a dental driving tool, the dental implant system can be threaded into engagement with the alveolar bone at the implant site and covered by gingival tissue, without any additional components or process steps.
