A dental implant (10) capable of reliably preventing elution of metal when the dental implant is applied within an oral cavity and capable of reliably preventing occurrence of mismatching (bumpy occlusion or the like) when the dental implant is fixed in place, and a method for manufacturing the dental implant are provided. In the method for manufacturing a dental implant (10) including an abutment (2), the abutment is manufactured through the steps including a titanium molded body production step for molding a titanium molded body (21) composition to obtain a titanium molded body having one of male and female thread portions (212), a ceramic molded body production step for molding a ceramic molded body composition to obtain a ceramic molded body (22) having the other thread portion (222) which makes thread coupling with the one thread portion, an assembling step for assembling the titanium molded body and the ceramic molded body together so that the one thread portion makes thread coupling with the other thread portion, to obtain an assembled body, a degreasing step for degreasing the assembled body, and a sintering step for sintering the assembled body thus degreased.
