Effects of different implant-abutment connections on micromotion and stress distribution: prediction of microgap formation

The aim of this study was to analyse micromotion and stress distribution at the connections of implants and four types of abutments: internal hexagonal, internal octagonal, internal conical and trilobe. Methods, A three dimensional (3D) model of the left posterior mandible was reconstructed from med...
