Advantages
- Lowers screw loosening risk, improving implant longevity and overall restoration success rates significantly.
- Delivers reliable preload accuracy, cutting uncertainty from twenty five percent down to nine.
- Removes friction related errors caused by lubrication, coatings, or surface cleanliness differences entirely.
- Improves clinical usability with ergonomic design, clear display, and peak torque detection features.
Summary
Dental implant success depends on achieving precise screw preload, yet screw loosening remains the most common cause of implant failure. Traditional torque wrenches are inaccurate, hard to maneuver in the mouth, and lack peak torque detection. Worse, relying only on manufacturer torque values ignores friction variability, causing preload to swing by up to 35 percent and putting long term implant stability at serious risk.
This technology pairs an ergonomic, torque sensing tool with a novel dual measurement procedure that calculates true preload independent of unpredictable friction effects. By measuring initial tightening torque and removal torque together, clinicians can determine the exact torque each implant needs. The result is preload accuracy within 9 percent, far surpassing conventional single torque methods, giving clinicians a more reliable, repeatable, and clinically sound way to secure implants for the long term.
