ABSTRACT:
A dental implant comprises a Y-shaped body including three planar legs which have respective openings defined centrally in sides thereof and extend radially as viewed from above, and a head supported on the body and adapted to be capped by an artificial tooth. The three legs which extend radially outwardly allow the body to be firmly anchored in an alveolar bone of the patient. After the body has been embedded in a groove defined in the alveolar bone, the alveolar bone grows and is joined together through the openings in the legs. As a result, the embedded body becomes more and more secure with time.
