Abstract
A desirable dental implant can be constructed out of titanium so as to have a first end for insertion into a jawbone, an externally threaded shank extending from said first end, a tapered head on said shank adjacent to the second end of the implant and an internally threaded bore shaped so as to include a non-round socket in the threads of said bore. The exterior of the implant is preferably etched so as to increase its area.
