A dental implant ( 105,137,156 ) has an elongated body ( 100 ) having first and second end portions ( 101,103 ) and having a root on one end portion ( 104,115,116 ) for attaching to a patient's jawbone to replace the root of a removed tooth. The root portion ( 104,115,116 ) has an anatomically shaped portion between the end portions of the body for fitting into a jawbone opening below the gum tissue of a patient when the root ( 104,115,116 ) is attached to a jawbone. An artificial tooth abutment ( 103,112 & 113 ) is formed on the other end of the elongated body for attaching an artificial tooth thereon of the abutment extending above the gum line of a patient. A method of attaching a dental implant ( 105,137,156 ) includes the steps of extracting a patient's tooth and selecting the dental implant ( 105,137,156 ) of the apparatus and attaching the dental implant root ( 104,115,116 ) with the jawbone of a patient with the abutment ( 103,112,113 ) extending above the gum tissue of the patient and attaching the artificial tooth to the abutment.
