Gibson Healthcare® Bone Graft Plug Slim 6mm x 25mm Box of 5

Product Description

A sterile, biocompatible synthetic mineral with collagen bone graft material for use in periodontal, oral and maxillofacial surgery. Convenient bullet-shape for use in guided-bone regeneration procedures The GIBSON Plug is a calcium phosphate-based mineral with a synthetic carbonate apatite structure which is like natural bone. The similarity in structure between the Gibson Healthcare® Synthetic mineral and natural anorganic bone mineral mimics natural bone as shown in vivo resorption and remodeling profile. The low crystallinity of carbonate apatite supports bioresorption and the synthetic mineral has been shown to increase the bone forming activities of osteogenic cells as well as enhance bioresorption of bone by osteoclasts. Gibson Healthcare® Synthetic Mineral Collagen Plug is approximately 80% mineral combined with 20% Type I Achilles bovine tendon collagen.
