Description
Shurui Hu and eight colleagues tested in 2026 whether fibre Bragg grating sensors can track heat during dental implant drilling better than standard sensors. They placed the sensors beside implant sites in cow rib bone, chosen for similarity to human jaw bone, and varied irrigation, drilling sequence, speed, diameter, and depth.
The sensors recorded temperature in both spongy and hard bone at once, and showed irrigation and intermittent drilling kept heat within tissue tolerance, with irrigation mattering most. Wider drills and deeper drilling raised peak temperatures, while speed mainly heated hard bone and depth mainly heated spongy bone. The small, multi-point sensors look promising for live monitoring in surgery.
