There is disclosed a plurality of extensions for dental implants allowing a dental surgeon to maintain a minimum number of parts in his trays to carry on an effective, successful practice, thus eliminating the need to carry the wide variety of parts offered and carried by surgeons to meet the needs of his practice. The surgeon is only required to carry two different parts, the basic implant body and also the extension that will match that particular implant body. With this combination of elements, the surgeon will be able to place many different implant lengths with a much reduced inventory and corresponding costs to the practitioner.
