Bone Allograft Particulates

Mineralized Cancellous:

• Ideal inner surface area and porosity allows for immediate, stable clot formation
• Mineralized bone provides osteoconductive scaffold for efficient turnover to vital host bone
• Optimal particle structure and shape for natural and complete bone fill

Mineralized Cortical-Cancellous:

• Mineralized bone provides osteoconductive scaffold for efficient turnover to vital host bone
• Cancellous (~60%) provides ideal porosity for rapid clot formation
• Cortical (~40%) provides excellent space maintenance with slower resorption

Mineralized Cortical:

• Mineralized bone provides osteoconductive scaffold for efficient turnover to vital host bone
• Cortical bone provides excellent space maintenance with slower resorption
• Optimal particle density for long-term volume maintenance

Demineralized Cortical:

• Demineralized bone can promote osteoinductive BMP activity
• Excellent for small periodontal defects
• Optimal particle density for clot stability

Demineralized Cancellous Sponge:

• Demineralized bone promotes osteoinductive BMP activity for ectopic bone generation
• Compresses during placement, yet expands to maintain space
• Rapidly absorbs blood for quick, stable clot formation
• Unlike block grafts, sponge strip won’t cause exposures or soft tissue perforation
