Objectives Based on the current lack of data and understanding of the wear behavior of
dental two-piece implants, this study aims for evaluating the microgap formation and wear …

Purpose: The implant-abutment connection of a two-piece dental implant exhibits complex
micromechanical behavior. A microgap is evident at the implant-abutment interface, even in …

Purpose: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the implant–abutment assembly of
Astra Tech (AST), Bego (BEG), Camlog (CAM), Friadent (FRI), Nobel Biocare (NOB) and …

Purpose: This study compared the loosening torque of experimental conical-head abutment
screws to that of conventional flat-head screws of implants with external-hex (EH) and …

Objectives This study evaluated the screw joint stability after cyclic loading of implant‐
supported titanium and zirconia CAD/CAM frameworks for fixed dental prostheses (FDP s) …

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating of prefabricated
implant abutment on screw removal torque (RT) before and after mechanical cycling (MC) …

This chapter examines the basic differences between the implant abutment connections on
the market. It shows advantages and disadvantages of external hex connection of implants …

Objectives The aim of this in vitro study was to identify and quantify up to 38 microbial
species from human saliva penetrating through the implant‐abutment interface in two …

Micromovements of the implant–abutment connection influence peri-implant bone
preservation. This study evaluates and quantifies the maximal torque after a cycle of implant …

Purpose: To analyze the microgap changes between hybrid-abutment crowns made of two
materials and three internal taper connec9on implants with different connec9on designs …
