Osteoconductive and
Osteoinductive
Bonegraft Flexible
Strip is a biodegradable synthetic bone graft that is easy to use due to
its high elasticity, especially in bone defects of the pelvis and lower
extremities as well as posterior lateral spinal fusion cases. Dental
applications include ridge augmentation as an alternative to autogenous bone
plates.
Bonegraft Flexible
Strip consists of silicate-added B-TCP embedded inside a PLA-based
synthetic polymer lattice of varying thicknesses.
Osteoinductive characteristics are achieved through the
addition of silicate to the embedded Powerbone graft material.
Flexible Graft, Clot Support, and Barrier in one.
-4mm thickness – graft and barrier in one for ridge
augmentations.
-2mm thickness – ‘jumping gap’ graft between the implant and
buccal bone wall.
UNIQUE FORMULATION
·
Closely formed lattice sheet of PLA + PCL
polymer – clot hosting, space maintenance scaffold.
·
Embedded with silicate substituted
βeta-Tricalcium Phosphate granules – Biomechanically, radiographically, and
histologically equivalence to autograft
·
Compressed non-porous barrier layer
FLEXIBLE APPLICATION
·
Can be folded and tacked.
·
Can be wetted before application – saline,
blood, or centrifuged blood products.
·
Thickness options of 2mm or 4mm for extended
indications.
PREMIUM PERFORMANCE
·
Embedded bone graft induces angiogenesis and
fast apatite formation (1,2,5)
·
Full resorption after 6 months·
·
A synthetic alternative to autogenous bone block
or lamella graft.
Bonegraft Flexible Strip
Implantation
Bonegraft Flexible Strip can be applied to the surgical area
directly or combined with bone marrow aspirate or blood.
Bonegraft Flexible Strip must be implanted just before all
metallic implants are stabilized and the surgical site is closed.
Bonegraft Flexible Strip can be cut and placed in the spinal
cage.
Bonegraft Flexible Strip gains osteoinductive
characteristics due to silicate addition to the product content. For product
dimensions and reference numbers, please refer to the product lists at the end
of the catalogue. When wetted the flexibility of Powerbone Flexible Strip
increases significantly
