“…For example, increasing drill bit diameter increases the chisel edge length, drill flute area, and web thickness. Many studies have reported an increase in drilling outputs-normal stress, 73 drilling force, 19,97,164,174,196 torque, 85,164,174 osteonecrosis regions, 6,7 and bone temperature 2,4,6, 16,42,43,51,59,70,81,85,91,97,98,101,105,115,123,130,159,176,180,181,199 -with the increase of drill diameter. Researchers have applied two-step drill bit (a drill bit with smaller drill tip for initial bone removal and larger shaft for drilling final hole diameter) and sequential drilling technique (increasing hole diameter sequentially until desired hole size is achieved) to reduce the thermal damage in bone.…”
