Research and Education Abutment screw loosening in angulation-correcting implants: An in vitro study

ConclusionsA significant loss of abutment screw torque was found in both implant groups with increased cycles of occlusal loading. The angulation-correcting implants resisted screw loosening significantly more than the straight implants because of the reduced angle of abutment screw loading.
