Healthy skeletal tissues are necessary for normal development and function. However, degenerative diseases, ageing and trauma commonly cause progressive or immediate breakdown of bone causing loss of skeletal function, pain and discomfort. While symptoms and disease progression often can be treated with pain relieving and/or anti-inflammatory drugs, reconstructive surgery using implants and/or bone grafts is often the only way to restore skeletal function.
Titanium granules combine the superior biocompatibility of titanium with the scaffolding effect of ultra-porous tissue engineering scaffolds. This novel bone regeneration material has retained the mechanical strength, permanent volume fill and the osteoconductivity of titanium, while at the same time offer a porous architecture for optimal cellular ingrowth, revascularization and bone in-growth. Accordingly, these granules come close to be the optimal graft material for repair and regeneration in loaded bones.
