A system comprising a dental interface device and a dental implant. The interface device provides an interface between a dental abutment and the implant allowing connecting the implant to the abutment. The interface device may comprise a shank and a polygonal connector, where the connector extends from one end of the shank. The connector may comprise sections forming the polygonal shape where the implant may comprise a polygonal receptacle, which is a cavity designed to receive the polygonal connector of the interface device. The outer dimensions of the connector may be slightly larger than the corresponding inner dimensions of the polygonal receptacle. The sections can bend inwardly towards the center of the connector when inserted to the receptacle, and return to an unbent position once the connector is inside the receptacle, thereby applying pressure upon the inner walls of the receptacle, thereby securing said connector to the receptacle and implant.
A system comprising a dental interface device and a dental implant, wherein said dental interface device provides an interface between a corresponding abutment and said dental implant,
A dental interface device that provides an interface between a corresponding abutment and an implant,
A method for coupling of a dental interface device of an abutment to a dental implant, wherein said device comprises a shank and at least one connector comprised of sections configured in a polygonal shape and wherein said implant comprises at least one receptacle, which is a cavity designed to receive the sections of said connector,
