Abstract
A dental implant includes a screw body and screw threads. The screw body has an apical end and a coronal end. Screw threads include a primary thread and a secondary thread, which overlap in at least a portion of the screw thread. Thread depth progressively increases from the coronal end to the apical end. The coronal end may contain any suitable secondary characteristics, such as machined threads, grooves, micro-threads, or any other characteristics favorable to successful outcomes with dental implant treatment. A method of making such a dental implant is also disclosed.
