The effect of sterilization and number of use on the accuracy of friction-style mechanical torque limiting devices for dental implants

Background: Mechanical torque limiting devices (MTLDs) are necessary tools to control a peak torque and achieving target values of screw component of dental implants. Due to probable effect of autoclaving and number of use on the accuracy of these devices, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of...
