Self-Drilling Versus Self-Tapping Screws: A 3D Finite Element Analysis [PDF]
Study Design: Self-tapping and self-drilling screws are twomodalities available for plate fixation. Whencompared to self-drilling, self-tapping screws have a few drawbacks like screw loosening, thermal osteolysis, equipment dependent, and time-consuming.
