Spongious and Cortical Bone Substitution Kinetics at the Expense of Macroporous Biphasic Calcium Phosphate: Animal and Human Evidence

Maxillary sinus grafting with Bio‐Oss® or Straumann® Bone Ceramic: histomorphometric results from a randomized controlled multicenter clinical trial

“…Both have micro‐ and macroporosity and are ostoeoconductive, and the properties can be altered by changing the composition or crystallinity of the material. ABB has been demonstrated to be resorbed very slowly (Piattelli et al 1999; Taylor et al 2002), whereas approximately 50% of BCP (60/40 HA/TCP ratio) is replaced by cortical lamellar bone in 1 year (Daculsi et al 1999b). With BCP, the HA constituent therefore provides a rapid response, while the β‐TCP constituent provides faster remodeling (Daculsi et al 1989; Frayssinet et al 1993).…”

Bioactive Materials and Processing

“…BCP coating also provided a more efficient coating material than HA far accelerated interface attachment (Delecrin et al, 1991). Recently, macroporous BCP (70% porosity and 300 -600 f.Lm pore size) was investigated for cancellous and cortical bone substitution (Daculsi et al, 1999). It was found that the bone ingrowth during the first year in both human and animal was 1imited to 2.5 mm from the surface of the imp1ants.…”

Implant survival after sinus elevation with Straumann® BoneCeramic in clinical practice: ad-interim results of a prospective study at a 15-month follow-up

“…We speculate that the high survival of implants might be attributed, at least in part, to the properties of Straumann ® BoneCeramic. This BCP presents good biocompatibility (Shi et al 2008; Scwharz et al 2009; Jensen et al 2009) and is rapidly re‐absorbed: it has been shown that approximately 50% of BCPs with a 60/40 HA/TCP ratio like Straumann ® BoneCeramic is replaced by cortical lamellar bone within 1 year (Daculsi et al 1999; Cordaro et al 2008). In particular, HA constituent may provide a rapid integration, while the β‐TCP can allow a fast remodeling (Daculsi et al 1989; Frayssinet et al 1993).…”
