An In Vitro Evaluation of Heat Production

Excessive trauma during surgery is considered an important cause of implant failure because of thermal  ascular and mechanical factors that contribute to the formation of necrotic tissue, thereby affecting the maturation of tissue at the boneimplant interface.1–4 Repeated use of cutting tools progressively increase their  wear and decrease their cutting efficiency, thus producing more friction heat. Excessive heat production caused  by worn drills can result in failure to achieve osseointegration
