ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an anatomical restoration dental implant system with an interlockable elliptical healing cap assembly and a matching abutment member. The healing cap assembly includes an integral bolt member which has a widened head segment and an elongated shaft segment. The healing cap assembly also includes a healing cap member which has a divergent body with a larger elliptical end with a long-axis and a short axis. The healing cap member also has a stepped interior bore with threaded section offset from that of the bolt member so that the healing cap member and the bolt member are interlockable. The present invention also comprises a matching abutment member for supporting a tooth analogue with an elliptical root. The abutment member has a bolt segment which is identical to the bolt member of the healing cap assembly, and a frusto-conical shaped head segment. The large end of the frusto-conical shaped head segment of the abutment member is circular shaped and has a diameter smaller than the short-axis of the elliptical shaped end of the healing cap member, such that when the abutment member is attached to the healing cap member, an elliptical shoulder is created for matching perfectly with the elliptical root of the tooth analogue.
