Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Engineering
  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Dental Implantology

Background:

  • Thermal damage from bone drilling is a critical issue in surgery, potentially causing necrosis and implant failure.
  • Existing methods to reduce surgical heat lack comprehensive quantitative analysis, especially for staged drilling techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a two-stage drilling strategy in mitigating heat generation during cortical bone drilling.
  • To compare the thermal impact of two-stage versus conventional single-stage drilling using a finite element model.

Main Methods:

  • Developed and validated a 3D dynamic elastoplastic finite element (FE) model for bone drilling simulation.
  • Simulated single-stage and two-stage drilling (pre-drilled hole followed by pilot hole enlargement).
  • Analyzed thermal effects by varying pre-to-pilot hole diameter ratios, feed forces, and drill speeds.

Main Results:

  • A diameter ratio of 0.78 in two-stage drilling reduced peak bone temperatures by up to 12°C compared to single-stage drilling.
  • Increased feed forces (40N, 60N) and higher drill speeds (up to 2000 rpm) further decreased thermal accumulation.
  • Peak bone temperatures decreased from 57°C to 43°C with increased rotational speed.

Conclusions:

  • The two-stage drilling strategy effectively mitigates thermal bone damage during surgical procedures.
  • This technique offers a practical approach to improve thermal safety in implant site preparation.
  • Findings support the adoption of staged drilling to reduce intraoperative thermal injury.
