A dental implant system with a ceramic implant and with an abutment, which moreover includes an insert element for the ceramic implant. The insert element is either manufactured from non-ceramic material or is manufactured essentially of injection molded ceramic. The insert element matches with a recess a proximal region of the ceramic implant and is inserted or insertable into the recess. The insert element serves for the fastening of the abutment and for this is equipped with fastening structures. The insert element, which is arranged in the recess of the ceramic implant, is connectable or connected to the ceramic implant by way of a frictional connection and/or positive connection with respect to axial traction.
A dental implant system comprising a ceramic implant and an abutment, wherein the ceramic implant comprises a recess with a proximal opening and wherein the dental implant system further comprises an insert element matching with the recess, wherein the insert element is manufactured of a non-ceramic material or wherein the insert element is manufactured essentially of injection molded ceramic and wherein the insert element is provided with structures for a fastening of the abutment on the insert element element, wherein the insert element, in the recess of the ceramic implant, is connectable or connected to the ceramic implant by way of a frictional connection and/or positive-fit connection with respect to axial traction.
