Apparatus and method for installing a multi-tooth dental prosthesis in one session are shown and described. A first tool attaches to the jawbone, and serves as a foundation for subsequently used guides. Existing teeth and dental fixtures are removed, and the bone tissue is removed to accommodate the prosthesis. Subsequently, a drill guide is used to drill implant holes. An abutment guide is then used to place abutments. Copings are then installed. Next, the prosthesis may be installed and cemented to the copings. A resinous filler material may be applied to fill gaps and holes in and between the copings and the prosthesis, and is sanded smooth.

An adaptor for a dental implant abutment includes a body extending along a longitudinal axis between a proximal end and a distal end. The body has a longitudinally extending bore extending from the proximal end for sliding receipt of a post of a dental implant abutment. The body has a distal shaft for inserting into a dental prosthetic, and the distal shaft tapers in outer diameter going towards the distal end. The body has proximal flange for securing between the dental prosthetic and the dental implant abutment. The proximal flange has a first ledge for abutting the dental implant abutment and a second ledge for abutting the dental prosthetic, and the second ledge tapers in outer diameter going towards the distal end.
