Skull Melted 3.2YSZ has good physical properties and does not undergo low temperature degradation. Due to these excellent physical and mechanical properties, Skull Melted 3.2YSZ has been studied for use in dental implants. In this study, a ø2.2mm Initial Twist Drill was made using Skull Melted 3.2YSZ; the drilling characteristics were compared with those of the traditional SUS420J drill. The experimental results indicate that the Skull Melted 3.2YSZ drill requires similar thrust forces and has a slightly higher temperature.
