Abstract
A screw-type dental implant anchor includes an externally-threaded body portion having internal structure for engaging an insertion tool. The body portion can be joined to a top portion having an unthreaded exterior wall. This internal is inside a top portion or inside the body portion of the anchor. The top portion is open, preferably chamfered at its upper end, and in registration with an internally-threaded shaft inside the body portion of the anchor that extends from a plane just below the head portion downwardly a substantial distance inside the body portion. The distal end of the anchor includes a through hole extending from one side of the body portion to the other, and an opening at the bottom of the body portion extending upwardly inside the body portion a distance sufficient to permit bone and associated tissue to grow into and through these openings and to permit blood tissue to escape.
