for implantation in a human or animal jawbone with an implant for
receiving a dental prosthesis. Providing a dental implant that can be
implanted with less discomfort for the patient is achieved in that the
implant is at least in parts surrounded with bone substance of the
patient, said bone substance not originating from the place in the jaw of
the patient at which the dental implant is intended to be implanted.
