Fig. 2

Microgap formation assessed using synchrotron radiography and phase-contrast radioscopy at upper (UL) and lower left abutment edge (LL) for different static load applications applied from left to right. Mounting force and loading angle induce increased microgaps at upper left abutment edge. (left radiographic image displays a MS implant as an example; I: Implant; A: Abutment; AS: Abutment screw)
