Table 4. ITV-Post Hoc Test (Multiple comparisons with dependent variable: INSERTION Torque Values (ITV) calculating Least Signficance Difference (LSD)): Post-hoc multiple comparisons by Fisher’s Least Significant Difference test to discern whether the differences between the means of the different biomaterials were statistically significant. Values with p <0.05 were considered statistically significant.
