Abstract

This project aims to commercial and industrial development of digital dental torque wrench. This development is justified by the absence of similar equipment in domestic and international markets evidenced by searching patent databases. It is expected with this product decrease the incidence of loss of implants and prosthetic components that have to question the application of improper torque, allowing the record in electronic files of torque values applied while using the product, in addition to increasing the predictability and traceability of surgical and prosthetic procedures in implant dentistry area.
