A dental implant for securing an abutment to a jawbone, the implant including a tapered body having a longitudinal axis, the body including a coronal end and an apical end, the coronal end including an inclined coronal surface. A first bore receives a base portion of the abutment, the first bore extending downwardly from the coronal surface and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the body. A second bore with a footprint larger than the first bore includes a flange adapted to be abutted by a top portion of the abutment, the diameter of the second bore being off-axis and larger than that of the first bore.
