Objective Crestal bone loss around dental implants is a criterion for success as this could
prevent loss of implant and superstructure. The macrogeometry of the implant could …

Purpose: The objective of this systematic review was to compare the loss of marginal bone
between implants with internal and external connections by analyzing results reported in …

Statement of problem The implant abutment connection interface has been considered one
of the major factors affecting the outcome of implant therapy. However, drawbacks of …

Soft tissue integration in the transmucosal zone of dental abutments supports the peri-
implant tissues, improves esthetics, ensures soft tissue seal against microorganisms, and …

788 abutment interface (13, 14). The presence of such microgaps, that have been described
as microscopic spaces between an implant and its corresponding abutment, can also allow …

Statement of problem The maintenance of the mechanical stability of implant-abutment
connections is relevant to the clinical success of implant-supported restorations. However …

Background The combination of a prosthetic index with Morse taper connection was
developed, with the purpose of making prosthetic procedures more precise. However, the …

The fit of the implant-abutment interface was assessed by the metallographic technique and
by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), using solid abutment types at different torque …

Background: Peri‐implant bone loss seems to occur following implant placement/loading
regardless of all the efforts to eliminate it. Several factors, including surgical trauma, biologic …

Purpose. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the impact of
abutment disconnections/reconnections on peri-implant marginal bone loss changes in …
