Abstract
Microgap is defined as the microscopic space that exists between the implant body and abutment. The main mechanism proposed for microgap-related crestal bone loss is the role of this space as a trap for bacteria and thus, as a putative etiological factor for inflammatory reaction in the peri-implant soft tissues. The aim of this paper was to evaluate, with X-ray 3D microtomography, the microscopic space that exists between the implant body and abutment with internal hexagon versus cone morse.File in questo prodotto:
