- A synthetic bioactive glass bone graft featuring a fine particle size distribution of 200–400 microns, this precise grain sizing optimizes fluid absorption and cell attachment for specific oral, periodontal, and maxillofacial surgical applications
Uses
- Infrabony periodontal defects:
- Filling narrow, two-wall or multi-wall osseous pockets around teeth to restore lost bone attachment
- Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR):
- Working in direct conjunction with barrier membranes to prevent soft-tissue down-growth during healing
- Extraction socket preservation:
- Packing empty tooth sockets immediately after removal to preserve the architectural width and height of the alveolar ridge
- Endodontic surgical repairs:
- Filling smaller cavities created during root resections, apicoectomies, and cystectomies
- Sinus floor elevations & ridge augmentations:
- Providing a foundational scaffold for implant site placement
Features
- 200–400µm Granules:
- Offers a significantly high surface-area-to-volume ratio compared to larger variants. This micro-environment accelerates chemical reactions with body fluids, enhancing rapid osteoblastic attachment
- Bioceramic Scaffold Transformation:
- Upon contact with blood or sterile saline, the bioactive glass granules form a biological hydroxyapatite layer that steadily releases osteogenic minerals like calcium, phosphorus, and silicon
- High Relative Density:
- The material is heavier than the patient's blood, enabling the particles to sink directly into the deepest sections of the osseous defect without washing out
- 100% Synthetic & Sterile:
- Eliminates all risks of human- or animal-derived cross-contamination or disease transmission
Benefits
- Accelerated Natural Remodeling:
- The material is fully resorbable. It breaks down at a rate synchronized with new bone development, completely converting into remodeled host bone over approximately 6 months
- Local Antibacterial Action:
- As the glass surface dissolves, it raises the local pH to create an alkaline environment that exhibits immediate antibacterial properties, keeping the healing graft clean
- Wound Stabilization:
- The physical packing density stops localized oozing and minor bleeding, stabilizing the site right at the chairside
- Custom Composite Blending:
- It can be used standalone or mixed with autologous bone fragments, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), or freeze-dried allografts to enhance structural volume and add growth factors
