Abstract

The disclosure relates to an assembly including a superstructure support that supports a superstructure, an implant body having an inner thread, and a threaded bolt. The superstructure support and the implant body are secured against rotation relative to one other. An inner thread is arranged in the cavity of the superstructure support, in the region of said cavity facing the implant body. The threaded bolt has two outer threads arranged one behind the other, with or without a spacing between them, the first of which is an outer thread for driving and the second is an outer thread for clamping. The two outer threads have different pitches. The present invention improves an assembly interface between a superstructure support and an implant body, such that the superstructure is securely supported, with simple pre-assembly and final assembly.
