In an artificial dental root having a first end, a second end which is opposite to the first end and which is to be embedded into a jawbone, and a shank between the first and the second ends, a thread portion is formed on the shank and has a pitch which is not smaller than 2 millimeters. The pitch is preferably between 3 and 4 millimeters. The thread portion comprises a screw thread which has the above-mentioned pitch, a width, and a height. At least one of the width and the height of the screw thread is reduced in a direction of the second end. A rotation stopper member is formed on the second end and may be a groove and/or a projection. The shank may be reduced in diameter as it is near to the second end.
