A dental implant comprises an implant screw (1) with an external thread (5), an implant abutment (3) and a tightening screw (4) which can be screwed into the implant screw (1) and by which the implant abutment (3) is connectable or connected with the implant screw (1), wherein the implant screw (1) rests against a contact surface (14, 15) of the implant abutment (3) with a contact surface (10, 11). To improve such dental implant, the implant screw (1) and the implant abutment (3) are made of a ceramic material at least in the region of their contact surfaces (10, 11; 14, 15). The contact surface (14, 15) of the implant screw (1) and the contact surface (14, 15) of the implant abutment (3) are ground in against each other.
