Directions for Use

Biocompatibility, Resorption, and Osteoconductivity

OsseoConduct™ is a state of the art micro-porous beta tricalcium phosphate that provides what you are looking for in a granular bone graft material — the only material of this category cleared by the FDA for implant placement.

Unlike its predecessors, this 3rd generation βTCP contains micro-pores rather than macro-pores. Recent studies concluded that macro-pores allowed for bacteria to become entrapped, causing bacterial colonization resulting in graft failure. As a matrix for cell adhesion and proliferation in combination with cell mediated resorption, OsseoConduct™ produces normal bone in a short time period.

OsseoConduct™ granules undergo a rapid rate of resorption due to its unique physical properties. Other resorbable granular bone grafts require osteoclasts for resorption to take place. Osteoclasts exist only in mineralized bone. In order for other bone graft materials to be resorbed, they must be encased in mineralized bone first before absorption can occur. Therefore, the resorption process will take many months or years. OsseoConduct™ granules are able to be resorbed by monocytes (phagocytes) which are found in soft connective tissue.

OsseoConduct™ granules begin the resorbative process soon after grafting. The process continues providing space for ingrowth of mineralized bone. The result is a rapid and complete replacement of OsseoConduct™ granules with normal bone while maintaining shape and volume. Unlike allografts and xenografts, OsseoConduct™ produces bone with normal physiology and architecture.

Air Abrasion for Detoxification of Implant Surfaces

To date, air abrasion has been shown to be the most effective method of cleaning an implant surface. In order to produce a surface that is clean and biocompatible, but also promotes mineralization, we have produced an abrasive powder made from our OsseoConduct™ βTCP bone graft granules. Unlike other abrasives, our material is cleared by the FDA for bone regeneration.

“Modern beta tricalcium phosphate bone grafts perform as well or better than allografts or autografts. The negatives of autograft morbidity and cadaver harvesting makes high performing βTCP a superior choice.”

OsseoConduct™ has been through years of development and clinical testing. As a clinician driven company, we developed OsseoConduct™ to meet the following criteria:

Not elicit an inflammatory response
Have no potential for disease transmission
Maintain volume as it is being resorbed and new bone is formed
Produce bone with normal form and function
Be significantly resorbed in 3 months
Be able to handle reasonable load in order to resist deformation during the remodeling phase
Be cost effective for the patient and practitioner
Allow ease of application
Be designed to prevent bacterial colonization

OsseoConduct™ granules avoid all of the things you don’t want in a graft material such as inflammatory reactions resulting from residual proteins, potential disease transmission, and the inability to be resorbed preventing bone formation. OsseoConduct™ is a bone graft matrix for the natural process of bone remodeling that converts this biocompatible synthetic graft material into normal bone. During resorption, OsseoConduct™ granules provide the calcium and phosphate for mineralization of living bone without an inflammatory response. Any graft material that includes proteins will have a varying degree of inflammatory response. Other graft materials without proteins are considered non-pyrogenic because they produce a small inflammatory response. OsseoConduct™ is one of the rare graft materials that is pyrogen-free because there is no detectable inflammatory response. When grafting with OsseoConduct™ granules, it is the process of remodeling rather than encapsulation, that produces normal, healthy tissue and ensures bone vitality.
