A bone conduction prosthesis comprising: an operationally removable component configured to generate vibrations, the operationally removable component including a coupling apparatus and a vibrator unit in vibrational communication with the coupling apparatus ; and an adapter comprising: a first end having a male portion with a generally circular outer periphery, the male portion being configured for rigid snap coupling with a female portion of the coupling apparatus of the vibrator unit , and a second end configured for rigidly attaching via snap coupling to a skin penetrating abutment of an implant ; wherein the coupling apparatus is configured for rigid snap coupling to the skin penetrating abutment via the adapter for quick release and quick connect from and to, respectively, the adapter , wherein the female portion of the coupling apparatus is adapted to receive the male portion of the adapter, wherein the second end includes a male portion arranged to attach to an underside of an overhang of the skin penetrating abutment , wherein the removal force associated with detaching the operationally removable component from the adapter is less than that associated with detaching the adapter from the abutment, so that in a scenario where a recipient to the bone conduction prosthesis seeks to remove the operationally removable component from the implant , the adapter will remain on the abutment instead of being pulled of the abutment with the operationally removable component . an operationally removable component configured to generate vibrations, the operationally removable component including a coupling apparatus and a vibrator unit in vibrational communication with the coupling apparatus ; and an adapter comprising: a first end having a male portion with a generally circular outer periphery, the male portion being configured for rigid snap coupling with a female portion of the coupling apparatus of the vibrator unit , and a second end configured for rigidly attaching via snap coupling to a skin penetrating abutment of an implant ; wherein a first end having a male portion with a generally circular outer periphery, the male portion being configured for rigid snap coupling with a female portion of the coupling apparatus of the vibrator unit , and a second end configured for rigidly attaching via snap coupling to a skin penetrating abutment of an implant ; wherein the coupling apparatus is configured for rigid snap coupling to the skin penetrating abutment via the adapter for quick release and quick connect from and to, respectively, the adapter , wherein the female portion of the coupling apparatus is adapted to receive the male portion of the adapter, wherein the second end includes a male portion arranged to attach to an underside of an overhang of the skin penetrating abutment , wherein the removal force associated with detaching the operationally removable component from the adapter is less than that associated with detaching the adapter from the abutment, so that in a scenario where a recipient to the bone conduction prosthesis seeks to remove the operationally removable component from the implant , the adapter will remain on the abutment instead of being pulled of the abutment with the operationally removable component . <EOS>
