Patent attributes
A method for manufacturing a one-piece dental implant. The method includes the steps, in any order, of manufacturing an outer body of metal having a cavity and manufacturing an inner body of plastic or composite material having an outer profile. The cavity has an inner profile, and the outer profile of the inner body is complementary to the inner profile of the cavity of the outer body. The inner body includes a core manufactured within the cavity of the outer body. The respective profiles are wavelike rounded in an axial direction of the dental implant and tapering from the crestal end of the outer body to the apical end of the outer body, such as to decrease tension between the inner and the outer bodies and/or such that to provide for an anti-rotation lock between the two bodies.
