Is there a need for standardization of tightening force used to connect the transducer for resonance frequency analysis in determining implant stability?

CONCLUSION: In this in vitro model experiment, transducer torques between 10 and 17 Ncm appear to be adequate for accurate measurement of implant stability, allowing more precise comparisons without damaging the prosthetic connection in the implant.
