Abstract:A prevalent and widely favoured solution for replacing lost teeth is the use of dental implants. The removal of dental implants, even when they are osseointegrated but unsuccessful, can be traumatic, resulting in the loss of healthy bone and adding complexity to the treatment procedure. Reducing the trauma associated with implant removal can be achieved by intentionally weakening the bone-implant attachment. To achieve this objective, a suggested approach involves utilising thermal necrosis to aid in the minim… Show more
