Abstract
A dental implant packaging system for contamination-free packaging, storage, transport and delivery of dental implants and related components. Various embodiments of the system as applied to a dental implant and its cover screw are shown in which a dental implant is housed in a transparent tubular capsule that is lined with a titanium sleeve which covers the head and part of the body of the implant, leaving the tail end exposed to view. The head is restrained in the opening into the capsule and a cap which closes the capsule also serves to hold the head in place.
