Bonalive glass is a bone substitute, repairer and regenerator. At the heart of its technology is S53P4 bioactive glass: an intelligent biomaterial consisting only of elements naturally occurring in the human body.
S53P4 bioactive glass is characterized by:
- Ability to firmly attach to living tissue and chemically bond to the surrounding bone, which naturally facilitates new bone formation
- Bacterial growth inhibition properties (1-2-3-4-4-5), making it an effective tool in the filling of infected bone cavities
- It is gradually resorbed over time and replaced by bone (6). Postoperative follow-up of this process is possible due to its radiodense quality
- Bonalive is not osteoinductive.
Benefits
