We will analyze the noncommutative geometry inspired solutions of Einstein equations, which improve the conventional Schwarzschild and Reisner-Nordstroem solutions and exhibit a new scenario for the black hole evaporation. In particular, we will show that noncommutative coordinate fluctuations can cure the conventional singularities and the divergent behavior of the black hole temperature. For the charged case, both the Hawking and Schwinger pair creation are discussed in this new scenario. Finally, we will analyze the above solutions in the presence of extradimensions and the connections with the production of mini black holes, which is foreseen in the extreme energy hadron collisions at the LHC in the next few months.
