Table 3

Mean RFA values for different implants placed based on the insertion torque and analysis time.

Torque classification	Number of total implants (EH/MT)	RFA

		External hexagon (EH)		Morse taper (MT)

		ISQ t1	ISQ t2	ISQ t1	ISQ t2
30–44	10 (7/3)	72.18 ± 9.73^Aa	81.75 ± 9.22^Ba	63.92 ± 14.08^Aa	78.33 ± 5.27^Ba
≥ 45	34 (15/19)	79.22 ± 7.33^Aa	81.77 ± 4.78^Aa	72.29 ± 11.08^Aa	75.76 ± 8.50^Ba

Same lower-case letters in the column and upper-case letters in the row (for each implant type separately) indicate that the means do not differ significantly (p < 0.05, Tukey test). RFA: resonance frequency analysis.
