ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an improved endo-osseous implant which has sufficient binding force against occlusal pressure from every direction and does not cause any inflammation. The endo-osseous implant of the invention includes a large number of concaves on the circumference of a cylindrical main body embedded in dental alveoli. Each of the concaves has a shape of hemisphere or alternatively a shape of double hemisphere consisting of an upper hemisphere of greater diameter and a lower hemisphere of smaller diameter. Part of the cylindrical main body in contact with gingiva is covered with a polycrystal ceramic layer, and fine notches are further formed on the residual surface of the main body.
