A dental connection assembly for connecting an artificial denture to a jaw comprises a retention insert, an abutment structure, a fixation screw and an intermediate insert. The retention insert has a retention end portion and a retention skirt portion forming a retention cavity. The retention insert and the abutment structure are configured to be snap-fit connected by the retention cavity of the retention insert receiving a male member of the abutment structure. The abutment structure has a screw socket which opens at the male member and which corresponds to the fixation screw such that the fixation screw is axially movable into the screw socket by screwing the fixation screw into the screw socket. An intermediate skirt portion of the intermediate insert forms a female recess dimensioned to receive the male member. A flange portion of the intermediate skirt outwardly extends from a second axial end of the intermediate skirt portion.
