- A mid-sized, natural anorganic cancellous bone grafting xenograft packaged in a glass vial, derived from BSE-free Australian bovine bone, this highly purified calcium phosphate material consists of 100% pure hydroxyapatite, which acts as a specialized osteoconductive scaffold to rebuild lost bone density during small-scale dental, oral, and periodontal surgeries
Uses
- Standard Extraction Socket Preservation:
- Fills standard tooth sockets (such as single-rooted premolars or smaller multi-rooted bicuspids) after extraction to prevent bone resorption and preserve the alveolar ridge
- Infrabony Periodontal Defects:
- Fills mid-sized pocket defects around teeth compromised by periodontal disease to help rebuild structural attachment
- Minor Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation:
- Packs localized sinus floor elevations or small subantral voids to build adequate vertical height for implant planning
- Guided Regeneration Procedures:
- Functions as the hard-tissue volume base in standard Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) workflows
- Post-Surgical Defect Repair:
- Packs localized osseous gaps following apicoectomies, root resections, or dental cystectomies
Features
- Granule Sizing:
- Features a small granule particle diameter of 0.25mm - 1.0mm} (250–1000μm), which ensures dense packing within narrow bone cavities
- Vial Quantity (IOSG050):
- Formatted to contain exactly 0.5grams ((1.08cc volume) of particulate material, providing standard volume for typical dental defects without leaving wasteful excess
- Biomimetic Architecture:
- Composed of an interconnected macromolecule pore network (70.02% total porosity) that structurally and chemically mirrors mineralized human trabecular bone
- Expansive Particle Surface Area:
- Yields a high internal surface area of 88.2m2/g, creating an extensive path for cellular interaction and attachment
Benefits
- Optimized Two-Phase Healing:
- Large macropores (100 - 600μm) welcome rapid blood capillary ingrowth and vascularization, while smaller micropores (<10μm) stabilize fluid nutrients and provide an excellent texture for osteoblast cell adhesion
- High Chemical Compatibility:
- Produced via a meticulous multi-step thermal purification profile that isolates a pure nanocrystalline apatite structure while stripping out all cellular protein organics, removing the risk of soft tissue rejection or cross-contamination
- Fluid Cohesion and Delivery:
- Exhibits strong hydrophilic wicking properties, upon adding sterile saline or patient blood for 30 seconds, the granules form a damp, workable mass that can be easily manipulated with a surgical curette
- Long-Term Space Maintenance:
- Resorbs slowly over 6 to 9 months, this prolonged degradation profile preserves necessary bone volume over time, ensuring a dense, stable foundation before dental implants are placed
