  • Implant Screws: The core fastener in dental implantology. They are used to replace the root of the tooth and are made from biocompatible materials like titanium, which encourages bone to grow around the implant.

    Abutment Screws: Used to secure the abutment to the implant screw. They must be strong enough to withstand the forces of biting and chewing, and are typically made from the same material as the implant screw.

    Prosthetic Screws: Used to secure the prosthetic tooth (crown) to the abutment. These can be temporary or permanent, depending on the type of restoration, and are often made from strong, biocompatible materials like titanium or zirconia.

    Healing Screws (also known as Healing Caps or Healing Abutments): These are temporary components used to guide tissue healing after implant surgery. They are attached to the implant screw and protrude through the gum, shaping the tissue for the final prosthesis.

    Cover Screws: Used to cover and protect the internal threads of the dental implant when it is first placed and during the healing phase. They are often flat to maintain a low profile under the gums.
