Evaluation of reverse torque values and failure loads of three different abutment designs with internal connections

Conclusion: I/A connections with larger surface areas may lead to higher RTVs (e.g., OP andSA groups). Use of an additional screw and indexed area in TP group did not reduce the bendingresistance under static loading.Key Words: Compressive loading, dental implant –abutment interface, reverse torque
