BoneMedik-DM

BoneMedik-DM is a bioactive bone graft material, which is resorbableand able to be replaced by new bone. BoneMedik-DM 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.

BoneMedik-DM 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.

Advantages
Silicon containing porous Hydroxyapatite(Si-Content:Avg.0.6 wt%)
Optimum balance between HA and ¥â-TCP in the ratio(%), 60:40
Silicon ion technology speeds up the Bone Regeneration & Heal Activation
Outstanding Biocompatibility(No Biological Rejection, No Disease Transmission)
Excellent Osteoblastic Activity with wide surface area:72% Porosity
Indication
Augmentation of the alveolar ridge
Filling of periodontal or other alveolar bone defects
Filling of extraction sockets
Filling of peri-implant defects in conjunction with products intended for Guided Bone Regeneration(GBR)
For use in elevating the maxillary sinus floor
Comparison data of New Bone Density

The middle part at the dyed blue part is defected area as shown in the above picture,
where the dark blue is already ossified part and the light blue is about to be ossified part.
The circle marks show ossification parts formed from the edge of the defected area.

Dissolution behavior test
 
The weight loss of BoneMedik-DM is shown
in the left figure where there is no weight
loss for 1 week, but weight loss is seen after
2 weeks.
Average weight loss amounts to 21% but
further weight loss is not found after 4 weeks.
