Abstract
A sinus implant includes an implant body having a mounting hole axially defined there through; a plurality of positioning threads that are provided in a periphery of the implant body, that extend spirally upwardly around the periphery of the implant body, and that have a width that gradually decreases in a direction from a bottom end of the implant body toward an opposing top end of the implant body; a pushing tip that protrudes from a top end of the sinus implant, that has a diameter that is reduced compared to that of the implant body, and that includes a flat end face having defined therein a recess space; and at least one spiral groove that extends around the periphery of the implant body across the plurality of positioning threads, that reaches the periphery of the pushing tip, and that intersects with and communicates with the recess space.
