Comparison of Piezoelectric and High‐Speed Drills for Frontal Beak Osteotomy in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery—Exploratory Study

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 386-393, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Frontal beak reduction is a critical and challenging step in endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Traditional high‐speed drills can risk thermal injury and soft tissue trauma, whereas piezoelectric surgery uses ultrasonic vibrations for selective bone cutting and may improve surgical precision.
