• said package comprising:
• a housing, which has a compartment for said first solid portion, which compartment comprises a pivotable or slidable cover and which compartment can be closed by said cover so as to be substantially liquid-tight, and
• a region for a front part of said mounting holder, which region is separated from said compartment by a housing wall,
• wherein a passage connecting said compartment and said region is present in said housing wall for a rear part of said mounting holder,
• wherein said housing wall has a removal slot, which allows the implant to be removed when said cover is open, without separating said first portion from said mounting holder,
• wherein the package has at least one liquid cartridge and an associated release element, and
• wherein said method comprises the following steps:
• opening, with said cover closed, the liquid cartridge by means of said release element in such a way that liquid located in the liquid cartridge can flow out into the compartment to wet a surface of said first portion, wherein the liquid cartridge is pressed into the package, with the liquid located therein being released into the compartment,
• moving or shaking the package with the dental implant located therein, wetting the same,
• opening the package by displacing or pivoting the cover, and
