A method for manufacturing a dental implant apparatus that comprises an implant and an implant support that can be placed next to one another by contact surfaces and that have contours providing security against rotation that are integrally molded on in one piece. The implant and an implant support have mutually matching contours that prevent a rotation of the implant and the implant support when placed next to one another. A tool system for carrying out the described methods and a dental implant apparatus that is manufactured in a corresponding manner are further disclosed. A contact surface of the implant is ground using a first grinding gauge that has a grinding surface having the shape of the contact surface of the implant attachment but not having the shape of the contour providing security against rotation of the implant. The contact surface of the implant support is ground using a second grinding gauge that has a grinding surface having the shape of the contact surface of the implant but not having the shape of the contour providing security against rotation of the implant support.

Method and a tool for manufacturing a dental implant and a dental implant apparatus manufactured hereby

A dental implant comprises an implant screw () with an external thread (), an implant abutment () and a tightening screw () which can be screwed into the implant screw () and by which the implant abutment () is connectable or connected with the implant screw (), wherein the implant screw () rests against a contact surface () of the implant abutment () with a contact surface (). To improve such dental implant, the implant screw () and the implant abutment () are made of a ceramic material at least in the region of their contact surfaces (). The contact surface () of the implant screw () and the contact surface () of the implant abutment () are ground in against each other.
