Abstract(s)
Dental implant is used to replace the natural dental
root. The process to fix the dental implant in the
maxillary bone needs a previous drilling operation.
This machining operation involves the increasing of
temperature in the drilled region which can reach
values higher than 47°C and for this temperature is
possible to occur the osseous necrosis [I]. The main
goal of this work is to implement an optimization
method to define the optimal drilling parameters
that could minimize the drilling temperature. The
proposal optimization method is the Taguchi
method. This method has been used with success in
machining processes optimization of metallic
materials [2]. However, the Taguchi method is also
used in medical applications, namely in dental
medicine [3].
