Bone Subtitute

From Synthetic to the Living

Micro Macroporous Biphasic Calcium Phosphate (MBCP)

  • MBCP is a non structural bioactive synthetic bone substitute rapidly replaced by newly formed bone.
  • MBCP is a biphasic ceramic composed of 60% HA (Hydroxyapatite) and 40% -TCP (Tricalcium Phosphate Beta)
  • MBCP presents a global interconnected porosity of 70% with 2/3 of macropores (300-600µm) and 1/3 micropores (<10µm).

Bioactive
HA/TCP ratio
Short term dissolution/precipitation process into micropores

Osteconductive
Macropores guides bony cells into the depth of MBCP implant

Osteogenic
New interface recognised by the cells as the host bone

Balance between Resorption & Bone substitution
The 3lobal porosity combined with the controlled bioactivity of MBCP lead to a bone remodeling and an adjustment of the new bone to the implantation site.The mechanical properties increase in time to reach those of natural bone.
