Dental implant

A dental implant for implantation in bone tissue, comprising

• an implant body having an apical portion, a coronal portion;
• a central longitudinal axis extending from the apical portion to the coronal portion;
• a threaded portion extending along the central longitudinal axis, the threaded portion comprising a core having a core surface from which at least one thread extends radially outwards, the at least one thread having a thread crest, a thread root arranged at a thread depth from the thread crest, and thread flanks extending between the thread crest and the thread root;
• the thread extending in a helical manner over the apical portion, the intermediate portion, if present, and at least a portion of the coronal portion;
• the thread comprising a plurality of recesses interrupting the thread,
• wherein recesses of the plurality of recesses have each time a base defined as a region of the recess surface that is planar and forming a flat base of the recess, the flat base extending in a plane parallel to the central longitudinal axis or to a plane parallel to a plane tangent to the core surface at a point corresponding to the intersection of the core surface with a radius of the core crossing a radially inner most point of the recess.
