Rotational Load Fatigue Performance of an Implant System with an Internal Conical Connection and Microthreads

CONCLUSIONS: While no significant differences were found between the test groups, failures were observed only in the regular-diameter group. The abutment and abutment screw fractured deep within the implant, and the implant fractured below the simulated bone level. These modes of failure may pose a significant clinical challenge during retrieval of these components.PMID:38416005 | DOI:10.11607/jomi.10341
