The invention relates to a dental implant, comprising an implant body which extends in a longitudinal direction from an apical end to a coronal end and which has a first bone anchoring surface extending from the apical end to a transition portion lying between the apical and the coronal end, and a second bone anchoring surface extending from the transition portion to the coronal end, said second bone anchoring surface having at least one groove extending in a circumferential direction of the second bone anchoring surface, said groove being defined in the radially inward direction by a groove bottom surface and on both sides in the axial direction by groove flank surfaces extending from the groove bottom surface to an outer surface.
