Zusammenfassung:An implant for implantation into bone tissue includes an elongated body having an outer surface. The outer surface hast least one thread. The thread makes a number of turns around the body of the implant and includes a root, a flank and a crest. The root and a segment of the flank have a roughened portion compared to the crest.
