Table 2.

Insertion torque (IT; in N/cm) and implant stability quotient (ISQ) according to the different groups.

Group	IT	ISQ
Low Torque	18.8 ± 6.0	71.8 ± 6.6
Medium Torque	41.2 ± 7.2	75.6 ± 9.2
High Torque	68.2 ± 12.1	78.0 ± 6.4a
Diff.	--	0.003S

Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. N = 25 in each group. Diff., significance of the difference among the groups. Results at the pairwise comparisons. ^aSignificantly different from the low torque group. ^SStatistically significant correlation.
