Well, I'm just guessing but implants are when they put posts into the bone and then screw "teeth" onto them. So a non-surgical dental implant could be a set of dentures.

There is a company promoting its product that claims it is fine to just drill into the bone (Yes, that is still part of the process.) right through the gums without making an incision and turning back a tissue flap. They are a smaller diameter implant and I would say generally suited for helping to stabilize a denture, but I would not think that they are strong enough to support a crown.
I admit that I do not have the whole story on this product, because the concept did not really interest me at present. I'll let them pass the test of a few years of clinical success before I consider using them. By then, I'll be almost ready to retire though.....
