Aim: To compare the rise in temperature using trephines over conventional ones during bone site preparation.
Setting And Design: An-vitro, evaluative study.
Materials And Methods: Twenty implant sites were prepared using pilot drill up to depth of 10 mm on bovine femoral bone. In first part, no irrigation was used. Five sites were prepared using conventional drill of 2.8 mm, and other five were prepared with help of trephine drills. On completion of each drill, infrared thermometer was used to measure temperature on both the drill tip and the shaft. The same procedure was repeated with bone immersed in saline.
Statistical Analysis Used: Student t test was used to evaluate the significance of difference.
Result: Study showed that the temperature rise at drill tip was significantly higher for trephine drill (52.98 ± 1.67 °C) than conventional drills (48.20 ± 0.67 °C), however the temperature difference in trephine and conventional drills was statistically insignificant.
Conclusion: The temperature increase was more distributed in conventional drills than trephine. Copious irrigation is thus mandatory for trephine drills. Intermittent drilling is preferred with conventional drills.

Intercepting more radiation or higher use efficiency: pathways to enhancing biomass and yield in two wheat cultivars with distinct spike types under wide-belt sowing.
J Sci Food Agric

Background: In north China, wide-belt sowing (WBS) is widely used in wheat production because it increases the yield by improving the plant distribution and reducing the competition for resources compared with conventional narrow-drill sowing (NDS). Yield formation is also different for wheat varieties with distinct spike types. Therefore, it is important to explore the effects of WBS on the yields of wheat varieties with different spike types.

Drilling wells in unconsolidated formations is commonly undertaken to extract drinking water and other applications, such as aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES). To increase the efficiency of an ATES system, the drilling campaigns are targeting greater depths and enlarging the wellbore diameter in the production section to enhance the flow rates. In these cases, wells are more susceptible to collapse.

Introduction: Chemo-mechanical caries removal (CMCR) offers an alternative to conventional drilling for carious dentin removal, but limited evidence exists on its long-term effects on treating caries in primary teeth. The primary aims of this study were to compare CMCR to drilling in terms of restoration status and the presence of secondary caries after 24 months.
Methods: A randomized, parallel-group, single-blinded, controlled trial was conducted in Thailand.

Purpose: To evaluate whether there are clinical benefits by preparing dental implant sites using piezosurgery instead of conventional rotary drills in healed bone crests and if initial crestal soft tissue thickness could have an impact on marginal bone loss.
Methods: Twenty-five partially edentulous patients requiring two single implants in molar/premolar areas had each site randomly allocated to either piezosurgery or to conventional rotary drill preparation according to a split-mouth design. Definitive screw-retained metal-ceramic crowns were delivered after 6 months.

Article Synopsis
- * A 3D finite element model was created using ABAQUS software to simulate and compare the effectiveness of traditional rock breaking versus ultrasonic vibratory rock breaking.
- * Findings reveal that ultrasonic vibration, especially at 40 kHz, can enhance rock damage and efficiency, with mechanical specific energy showing a significant minimum at frequencies between 20-25 kHz, ultimately reducing drilling costs.
