TLDR
All forms of irrigation that allowed the stream of irrigating fluid to be directed to the point of penetration of the cortex were effective in limiting the increases in cortical temperature.Abstract:
Temperature measurements have been made in cortical bone while drilling under controlled laboratory conditions. Cortical temperatures greater than 100 degrees centigrade were frequently recorded when drilling if no specific provisions for cooling were made. The force applied to the drill was found to be much more important than drilling speed as a factor in both the magnitude and duration of cortical temperature elevations. Increases in the force applied to the drill were associated with decreases in the maximum temperatures and the durations of temperature elevation. Worn drills caused much greater temperature changes than new drills. All forms of irrigation that allowed the stream of irrigating fluid to be directed to the point of penetration of the cortex were effective in limiting the increases in cortical temperature. Tapping did not appear to cause significant temperature elevations.read more

Factors affecting the clinical success of screw implants used as orthodontic anchorage
TL;DR: To minimize the failure of screw implants, inflammation around the implant must be controlled, especially for screws placed in the right side of the mandible, as well as local host factors and management factors.

The Causes of Early Implant Bone Loss: Myth or Science?
TL;DR: Based upon currently available literature, the reformation of biologic width around dental implants, microgap if placed at or below the bone crest, occlusal overload, and implant crest module may be the most likely causes of early implant bone loss.
