Assessing removal force of abutment in dental implants: An in vitro study
The removal force of abutments with various implant abutment connections is of interest. Hence, thirty implants were categorized into types, <i>i.e.</i>, external hex, internal hex and conical connections. The highest removal force was recorded in conical (192.7 +/- 10.9 N) and internal hex (174.3 +/- 15.4 N) and the lowest were in the external hex (145.8 +/- 12.6 N). Important disparities between groups were identified (p < 0.05). Thus, the conical connections provide better mechanical anchoring, thus improving the stability of the implants.
