The BioRoot® anatomic endosseous dental implant begins as a block of yttria-stabilized, zirconia oxide (MOL3% Y3ZrO2) that is milled and processed into a single piece dental implant with a custom built abutment to which a dental prosthesis can be attached after a three to four month osseointegration period, with unique retention devices that can be round, ovoid, or oblong-shaped, of any size desired with a varied number of holes (See Drawings FIGS. 1, 1 and 2, FIGS. 2, 1 and 2, and FIGS. 3, 1 and 2) which through the osseointegration process will become anchors between the implant surface and the alveolar walls of the extracted tooth root socket that minimize bone resorption, increase bone-to-implant contact, increase initial implant stability and enhance overall osseointegration.
