Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of adding serration to the abutment-implant connection on torque maintenance before and after loading. Two implant systems with the same dimensions and connection design (internal 88 Morse taper octagon) were selected: one with nonserrated abutments (Simple line II) and the other one with serrated abutments (F & B). The removal torque value (RTV) was measured in 2 groups for each system: one group with one-piece abutments and the other group with 2-piece abutments, before and after cyclic loading (n=10 in each group). The initial RTV of the abutment screw was measured with a digital torque meter. Each abutment received a cement-retained metal crown with 308 occlusal surface. Cyclic axial peak load of 75 ± 5 N was applied to the implants for 500 000 cycles at 1 Hz. The post-load RTV was then measured. Two-way and repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), and independent t test were applied to assess the effects of cyclic loading, connection design, abutment type, and their interaction on the percentage of torque loss (α = .05). Two-way ANOVA showed that serration of mating surfaces had a significant effect on torque maintenance before (P < .001) and after (P=.004) cyclic loading. Repeated-measures ANOVA also showed that loading had a significant effect on the torque loss percentage (P < .01). Comparison of the groups with t test showed that the torque loss of the serrated groups was lower than that of non- serrated groups. Despite the limitations of this study, the stability of the implant-abutment connection in the serrated design was higher than that of non-serrated group. © 2020 Allen Press Inc..
