Effect of double conical abutment screw on implant preload

Abstract: The shape of the abutment screw head significantly influenced loosening torque: Double conical-head screws showed significantly higher loosening torque values than conical-head screws. Conical-head screws showed higher loosening torque values than conventional flat-head screws before and after loading.

“…Our results showed that assemblies attached with conical-head abutment screws harbored lower counts of microorganisms than those attached with conventional-head screws. Also corroborating with these findings, Arnetzl et al (2015) showed that the geometry of the abutment screw head significantly influenced loosening torque in internal connections. According to the authors, double or conventional conical-head screws showed higher loosening torque values than conventional flat-head screws before and after loading simulation.…”

“…In consequence, the use of osseointegrated dental implants became a common practice in oral rehabilitation, being confirmed by the high efficiency in the restoration of single, partial, or complete edentulous arches 4,5 . Nevertheless, in spite of the success of osseointegrated implants, problems both mechanical and biological, such as loosening of the abutment screw and bacterial microleakage have been documented [6][7][8][9][10] .…”
