ConclusionsThermal injury, due to insufficient irrigation, of hard bone caused massive resorption of the cortical bone and implant failure. Drilling procedures on hard bone need an adequate cooling supply because the bone matrix overheating may induce complete resorption of dense bone around implants. Internal–external irrigation and only internal irrigation showed to be more efficient than other types of cooling methods in preventing bone resorption around implants.
