An In Vitro Study of Torque Application in Abutment Screw Tightening at the Implant-Abutment Junction in Simulated Osseointegrated Implants
Under the experimental conditions, counter-torque is important to ensure the desired torque value is applied to the implant-abutment connection in low frictional resistance. RTV is proportionally related to ITV and can be used to estimate the ITV at the IAJ.
