Influence of Anodizing Stages on the Preload Force of Implant–Abutment Screws and Their Benefits Regarding the Concept of Immediate Implant Placement—An In Vitro Study

The tightening torque applied to a screw in a provisional restoration immediately after implant placement in a fresh extraction socket is often too low to gain sufficient preload force. Therefore, abutment screw loosening is a common complication. The aim of this study was to investigate whether it...
