DM-Bone
DM-Bone is a bioactive bone graft material, which
is resorbableand able to be replaced by new bone. DM-Bone
is a ceramic constituted of two-phase of silicon (<1wt%)
contained coralline 60% hydroxyapatite and 40% beta-tricalcium
phosphate.
Small amounts of silicates stimulate the action
of osteoblasts and, in consequence, the new bone formation.
Moreover, silicates increase the mechanical strength, a very
important factor in particular for porous ceramics, and also
accelerate the bioactivitiy of apatite.
DM-Bone is 70% porous with interconnected pores of 100~600
microns in diameter. This high porosity allows maximum space
for vascularization, osteoblast migration and bone deposition.
