ABSTRACT:
Means and method are provided for implanting an artificial tooth in the alveolus in the jaw bone which is left when the tooth is extracted. The method comprises wrapping a thin, sheet metal base with barbed projections around the depending root portion of an artificial tooth, and pressing the root portion with the sheet metal wrapped therearound down into the alveolus, to act as an interface between the alveolus and the material of the root of the artificial tooth to securely hold the artificial tooth into the alveolus while bone material grows up around the sheet metal base and the root portion of the artificial tooth.
