Effects of material and coefficient of friction on taper joint dental implants

ConclusionThe findings indicate differences in the coefficients of friction of cpTi, Ti alloy, and YSZ before, during, and after loading. Fractures caused by stress did not depend on the use of different materials (Ti alloy and YSZ) at the abutment.
