ABSTRACT:
A multi-part abutment for use with an endosseous dental implant includes a first part with a tapered portion at its proximal end adapted to accept a dental restoration and an optional transfer cap, a distally-positioned external multi-lobed or other wrench-engaging portion, an inwardly-projecting non-circular bevel extending partly or entirely around the first part, connecting the proximal and wrench-engaging portions. The first part has an internal through passage with an internal projection or threads or both. The second abutment part, a screw, has a proximal region to engage the internal projection(s) or threads or both of the first part, and a threaded shank to engage internal threads in an endosseous dental implant.
