A dental implant system includes a dental implant having a rotationally symmetrical coronal implant region and a supra-structure element that includes an apically extending sleeve portion, which is capable of being placed on the coronal implant region in a freely selectable rotational position. The edge line of the sleeve portion and the circumferential surface of the coronal implant region form together the physiologically relevant micro gap. After implantation and healing-in of the implant, the supra-structure element is placed on to the coronal implant region. An axial length of the sleeve portion and the rotational position of the supra-structure element relative to the implant are selected in such a manner, that the micro gap extending around the implant comes to lie above the natural bone surface by the biological width. Thus, the axial position and the course of the micro gap are adjustable after the healing-in of the implant.
