Table 1
Macrogeometric measurements of the implants, where α1 and α2 are the internal angles between flanks, and h is the thread height.
| Implant | Insertion torque (mean ± SD) | Region | α1 (degrees) | α2 (degrees) | Height, h (µm) | Percentage of area in relation to total implant length |
| Strong | 48.33 N cm ± 10.98 | Region 1-cervical | 59.3 | 59.9 | 331.6 | Top: 10.25% | Region 2-body | 59.7 | 61.7 | 349.5 | Flank: 63.03% | Region 3-apical | 59.7 | 59.2 | 250.1 | Valley: 26.70% | Mean | 59.9 | 310.4 | | Stylus | 33.88 N cm ±15.58 | Region 1-cervical | 58.7 | 62.1 | 389.4 | Top: 15.14% | Region 2-body | 59.6 | 57.1 | 380.0 | Flank: 75.35% | Region 3-apical | 50.7 | 59.2 | 283.6 | Valley: 9.49% | Mean | 57.9 | 351.0 | | Tryon | 33.05 N cm ±13.84 | Region 1-cervical | 55.8 | 55.6 | 350.1 | Top: 17.11% | Region 2-body | 55.9 | 59.7 | 362.1 | Flank: 73.72% | Region 3-apical | 63.2 | 58.1 | 312.5 | Valley: 9.79% | Mean | 58.0 | 341.6 | |
