Calcium phosphate bioceramics solutions for synthetic bone applications - Medical / Health Care
Calcium phosphate bioceramics such as HA or TCP or biphasic HA/TCP are very similar in composition to the main mineral portion of bone. These ceramics have demonstrated excellent biocompatibility. In porous forms, the structure mimics the structure of bone. Interconnected pores of sufficient size have been shown to provide a highly biocompatible matrix for osteoconduction. The use of these synthetic graft materials avoids some of the concerns with allografts (human bone source) and xenograft’s (animal bone sourced) or the need for a second surgical site to obtain an autograft (patient’s own bone).
