Also known as a root form implant; endosseus or an osseo-integrated implant.

This procedure involves the

(1)surgical re-exposure (uncovery or second stage surgery) of that portion of the submerged endosteal implant that receives the attachment device, and
(2)the connection of a healing abutment or temporary prosthesis. This is usually done after the implant has matured in the bone for several months.The purpose of a healing abutment or collar is to create an emergence profile in the gum tissues for the future implant crown. Some implants are designed to remain exposed in the mouth right after they are placed, abolishing an uncovery procedure.

See Code 9189 to submit the cost of other implant components
