Fig. 7. Diameter expansion (μm; positive line graphs) and axial displacement (μm; negative line graphs) of experimental implant-abutment assembly after screw tightening and cyclic loadings. Experimental implants with coronal wall thickness (0.2 mm, 3.75 mm diameter; 0.3 mm, 3.95 mm; 0.4 mm, 4.15 mm; 0.5 mm, 4.35 mm). The diameter expansion was significantly small in the 4.35 mm implant larger (P < 0.001). The axial displacement of the 3.75 mm and 3.95 mm groups was significantly larger (P < 0.001).
