Drilling for implant site preparation generates heat, which can cause bone necrosis if temperatures exceed 47 °C for over a minute. Factors influencing heat include drill size, speed, pressure, irrigation, and tool wear. Frequent drill replacement is essential, as wear from repeated use and sterilization affects performance. This study compared three pilot drills with similar designs from different manufacturers, testing each on pig ribs for 15 perforations after 15 sterilization cycles. Researchers measured temperature increase, drilling time, and surface wear. Results showed that drill no. 1 generated more heat than drills no. 2 and no. 3, though none reached critical temperatures. Drill no. 2 took the longest to reach the desired depth and displayed the most deformation. Findings highlight the importance of adhering to the recommended operational limits, suggesting that drills should be replaced after 15 cycles to ensure efficacy and patient safety.
