Materials and Methods In January 2017 an electronic search of literature was performed, in
Medline, EBSCO host and Pubmed data base. The search was focused on ability of different …

Implant abutment connection has proven to have a significant impact on the success of the
prosthetic rehabilitation for an implant-supported restoration. This connection not only …

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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of the implant-abutment
connection type on the bone level around dental implants in long-term observation and the …

Aim The implant-abutment connection is a crucial factor in determining the long-term stability
of dental implants. The use of a prosthetic index structure in the Morse taper implant …

The present study compared three different implant and abutment sets of type Morse taper
(MT) connection, with-and without-index, were analyzed regarding their mechanical …

This study evaluated the bacterial infiltration and the detorque of indexed and non-indexed
abutments of Morse taper implants (MTI) after mechanical cycling (MC). 40 MTI were …

PURPOSE This study assessed the microgap width and adhesion of three bacterial species
in four dental implants with different interlocks under four screwing torques. MATERIALS …

Objective Opening of a healing abutment in two-stage implant systems is usually followed by
a bad smell. Previous studies have found that presence of bacteria in microleakages of the …

There is no one implant system present that is ideal for every condition. Implant design
research has been based on increasing the bone implant contact area or functional surface …
