Abstract

See full text

A dental implant system comprises a dental implant, a first component, and a second component. The dental implant has a lower section for engaging bone, a middle section for passing through gingiva, and a top section with a first non-rotational feature. The first component has a larger width dimension than the implant such that a first lower portion of the first component surrounds the middle section of the implant. The first lower portion has a first scalloped lowermost end surface assisting to form the gingiva around the middle section of the implant. A second component attaches to the implant after the first component. The second component has a second lowermost portion with a second scalloped lowermost end surface that is substantially similar to the first scalloped lowermost end surface. The system may include a driver mechanism with a scalloped lowermost surface that helps to drive the implant into bone.
