    Abstract: A fixture of a two-piece dental implant and a method of use are provided. The implant can comprise a apical portion, a top portion arranged opposite the apical portion, an internal threaded cavity, and a coronal portion. The apical portion can define a bone length and a helical thread having a maximum outer diameter. The internal threaded cavity can be configured to releasably receive at least one of a surgeon tool and a prosthetic component. The coronal portion can be devised for apposition to soft tissue and for connective tissue attachment. Further, the coronal portion can have an extension in the longitudinal direction of the implant that is devised to be less than a layer thickness of the soft tissue. Furthermore, a ratio of the bone length to the maximum outer diameter can be in the range from approximately 0.8 to 1.2.
