The patent refers to a dental self-tapping
implant comprising a body having a longitudinal
body axis and a length, the body having a proximal neck portion, a proximal-central straight portion of substantially constant body
diameter and a distal conical portion of decreasing
diameter, the body comprising a core with a thread provided thereon, and a
flute of circular arc shape formed in the thread which runs helicoidally around the core the
flute having a longitudinal
flute axis. The body has two segments: a cortical segment next to the proximal neck portion, a spongiosa segment extending the cortical segment the spongiosa segment including the distal conical portion, the sum of the cortical segment and the spongiosa segment being equal to the sum of the proximal-central straight portion and the distal conical portion; the flute is configured to run helicoidally around the core until it reaches the neck portion, so that the longitudinal flute axis forms a first angle with the longitudinal
body axis along the cortical segment, and forms a second angle with the longitudinal
body axis along the spongiosa segment; the first angle is larger than the second angle, the value of the first angle is directly proportional to the body
diameter with a proportionality parameter within the interval (11; 18), preferably within the interval (13, 15). The patent further refers to a set comprising a dental self-tapping
implant and a multi- step
drill configured for the dental self-tapping
implant, where the multi-step
drill has four steps along the spongiosa segment, each step having a
drill diameter and a
step height; the drill diameters increase from the portion of the multi-step drill corresponding to the distal conical portion to the proximal-central straight portion; the body diameter is greater than the drill diameters at each
step height; the step heights along the spongiosa segment have respective predetermined values irrespective of the body diameter; the drill diameters increase with the respective body diameter.
