Dental implants are the first choice for rehabilitation of lost teeth because they offer excellent functional and aesthetic results. During osteotomy performed on the bone during implant surgery, heat is generated in the bone. If the generated heat exceeds the level the bone can tolerate, thermal necrosis occurs. This disrupts postoperative healing, leading to a primary loss of stability in the implant and ultimately implant failure. For this reason, researchers have studied the factors affecting bone heating during implant surgeries and proposed techniques to minimize heat generation. This review discusses the effects of temperature increase on bone.

Dental implantlar, kaybedilen dişlerin rehabilitasyonunda, fonksiyon ve estetiği mükemmel karşıladıkları için ilk tercih olarak karşımıza çıkar. İmplant cerrahisi sırasında kemiğe uygulanan osteotomiyle birlikte kemikte ısı oluşumu meydana gelir. Oluşan ısı, kemiğin tolere edebileceği seviyeden fazla olursa kemikte termal nekroza sebep olur. Bu durum, post operatif iyileşmeyi bozacağı için implantta primer stabilite kaybına ve sonuç olarak implant kaybına neden olur. Bu sebeple araştırıcılar implant cerrahilerinde kemikteki ısıyı en aza indirecek teknikler öne sürmüşlerdir. Bu derleme, sıcaklık artışının kemiğe etkilerini tartışmaktadır.
