- A high-density bone graft composed of 100% cortical bone, designed specifically for maximum space maintenance and structural rigidity in areas where the jawbone has significant volume loss
Uses
- Severe Ridge Defects:
- Ideal for rebuilding the height and width of a collapsed alveolar ridge
- Structural Augmentation:
- Used when the graft must withstand high pressure from overlying soft tissue
- Large Molar Extraction Sites:
- Provides a firm foundation in wide sockets to prevent bone walls from caving in
- Implant Scaffolding:
- Often used in "sandwich" grafting techniques to provide a hard outer shell of bone
Features
- 100% Cortical Bone:
- Contains no cancellous (spongy) bone, making it the densest and strongest allograft option
- Large Particle Size (1000–2000µm):
- The chunky granules create large interstitial spaces for new blood vessel formation
- Mineralized (FDBA):
- Retains full mineral content for maximum radiopacity and the slowest possible resorption rate
- Micro-Volume (0.25cc):
- A precise amount for small, targeted repairs or for mixing with other materials to add "grit" and stability
Benefits
- Maximum Space Maintenance:
- It is highly resistant to compression, ensuring the graft site doesn't flatten during the months of healing
- Extended Longevity:
- Because it is pure mineralized cortical bone, it remains at the site longer than any other VeraGraft blend, providing a long-term scaffold
- Superior Radiographic Density:
- Very easy to see on post-operative 3D scans (CBCT) to confirm graft placement and volume
- Biocompatible Strength:
- Offers the mechanical advantages of a synthetic block but is eventually replaced by the patient's own natural bone
