Effects of Apical Drilling Pressure on the Depth of Dental Implant Insertion Within a Simulated Osteotomy: An In Vitro Study
Abstract
Rotational torque value is a commonly used measurement to determine primary stability of a dental implant. The ultimate torque value represents the friction within a prepared osteotomy of the implant and the surrounding bone. External factors, such as operator pressure during implant placement, could provide additional sources of friction resulting in differing placement depths within an osteotomy.
