Effect of thermal osteonecrosis around implants in the rat tibia: numerical and histomorphometric results in context of implant removal

Abstract The purpose of this rat study was to explore the feasibility of in vivo temperature thresholds affecting bone contact at the implant surface. Based on these data, thermal necrosis should be used for implant removal in the subsequent in vivo study. Rat tibiae of 48 animals at one site were r...
