Effects of implant thread design on primary stability—a comparison between single- and double-threaded implants in an artificial bone model
Abstract Background Primary implant stability is essential for osseointegration. To increase stability without changing the implant size, the thread length must be extended by reducing pitch, using a double-threaded implant, or reducing pitch/lead and lead angle to half that of a single-threaded imp...
