Effect of internal irrigation on frictional heat generated from bone drilling.

TLDR
Frictional heat generated during bone drilling was reduced by internal irrigation compared with external or no irrigation, based on an in vitro study using two bur designs at low rotational speeds to prepare experimental cavities to varying depths.Abstract:

Osseous adaptation to continuous loading of rigid endosseous implants
TL;DR: Results indicate that relatively simple and inexpensive titanium implants develop a rigid osseous interface, 6 weeks is an adequate healing period, prior to loading, to attain rigid stability and avoid spontaneous fracture, and endosseous implants have potential as a source of firm osseus anchorage for orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics.

The effect of heat on bone regeneration: an experimental study in the rabbit using the bone growth chamber
R.A. Eriksson,T. Albrektsson +1 more
TL;DR: The results reflect the importance of controlling the heat produced during surgery to avoid impaired bone regeneration and highlight the need to evaluate the effects of a defined temperature rise on bone regeneration.

Thermal osteonecrosis and bone drilling parameters revisited
Goran Augustin,Slavko Davila,Kristijan Mihoci,Toma Udiljak,Denis Stjepan Vedrina,Anko Antabak +5 more
TL;DR: The external irrigation is the most important cooling factor with all combinations of parameters used, external irrigation maintained the bone temperature below 47°C and caused increase in bone temperature.

Cortical bone drilling and thermal osteonecrosis
Goran Augustin,Tomislav Zigman,Slavko Davila,Toma Udilljak,Tomislav Staroveški,Danko Brezak,Slaven Babic +6 more
TL;DR: Important drill and drilling parameters that could cause increase in bone temperature and hence thermal osteonecrosis are reviewed and discussed: drilling speed, drill feed rate, cooling, drill diameter, drill point angle, drill material and wearing, drilling depth, pre-drilling, drill geometry and bone cortical thickness.

Thermal injury to bone: A vital-microscopic description of heat effects
TL;DR: A titanium implant, the thermal chamber, allowing vital microscopic observations of bone tissue during heating and bone temperature measurements to be made simultaneously is described, which caused an irreversible bone injury and healing occurred from the surrounding tissues.
