Simple & Efficient Handling
- Ready to use, requires no preparation, and can be directly applied to the intended graft site
- Highly malleable, easy to mold, and pack or graft directly into any defect
- Available in MIS, Tray and Syringe configurations
- More flowable MIS formulation for minimally invasive delivery
Bioglass 45S5
- Cell Proliferation & Differentiation – 45S5 Bioactive Glass sitmulates growth and osteogenic differentiation of human primary osteoblasts1
- Unique composition encourages the formation of hydroxyapatite layers on the surface which mimics bone composition
- Osteostimulative properties make it an ideal material for bone tissue regeneration
Osteostimulation2
Bioactive Ion Release
- Calcium and silicate ions are released at critical concentrations as the bioactive glass begins to dissolve
Cellular Stimulation
- Ionic dissolution products interact with osteoblasts and osteogenic precursor cells, stimulating cellular activity associated with new bone formation
Upregulation of Osteogenic Gene Families
- Growth factors, including IGF-II and VEGF
- Transcription factors and cell-cycle regulators
- Cell-surface antigens and receptors
Safe & Reliable
- Provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process
- 99% Putty resorption after 8-12 months
- 20+ years of Clinical Use
- 2+ Millions implanted worldwide
- 3+ year shelf life
