title: [Measurements of the transfer of force by bone screws].
abstract: Bone screws normally used for functionally stable osteosynthesis were subjected to marginal torque in a limited number of cadaver mandibles. Since the various manufacturers differ considerably in lead, form of thread, and relation of external and internal diameters, the experiments appeared to us to be revealing in terms of the practical application. The experimental set up was presented in addition to the findings.
