OsteoGen® Bioactive Resorbable Calcium Apatite Graft (3.0g/6.0cc)
Product Description: OsteoGen® Synthetic Bioactive Resorbable crystals and crystal clusters in 300 to 400μ are osteoconductive, highly hydrophilic, resorbable, synthetically-derived non-ceramic form of hydroxylapatite, the major mineral component of bone and dental enamel. OsteoGen®, [Ca5(PO4)3(OH)] is used for the augmentation and repair in periodontal and oralmaxillofacial bone defects. OsteoGen® is a highly crystalline pure material, comparable to natural bone by its physiochemical properties, with NO α/β tricalcium phosphates, amorphous phases, or bone-inhibiting pyro-phosphates found in ceramic HA which is devoid of the hydroxyl group. Controlled manufacturing produces bone grafting crystals of nearly perfectly-formed clusters bound to a single nucleus and relatively hexagonal-shaped crystals. These clusters intertwine to each other for greater porosity to form a 360º lattice mechanism for the host cell proliferation and integration. OsteoGen® is an osteoconductive material in tha
