ABSTRACT:
A dental implant system has an inner housing removably received in an outer housing embedded in the bone for allowing a retentive screw or post retaining a prosthesis to be easily removed. A suspension mechanism provides lateral movement of the prosthesis for transferring forces from biting or chewing to the inside walls of the outer housing. A resilient coating on the inside wall of the inner housing absorbs the external forces. An interlocking gingival collar and abutment arrangement limit rotation of the prosthesis.
