BIOCERA-VET SMARTGRAFT is made of a bovine mineral bone matrix, bioresorbable polymers and collagen fragments.1 BIOCERA-VET SMARTGRAFT is a tissue-engineering technology allowing the patient’s cells to grow quickly and efficiently into the bone substitute while the biopolymers degrade, providing integration and osteogenesis.1
The microstructure of the composite matrix is strongly similar to natural bone in terms of interconnected and mid-sized porosity promoting osteoconductivity.1 Its high wettability and hydrophilicity are ideal to support the bone formation process.1
By supporting cell adhesion, colonisation and proliferation, BIOCERA-VET SMARTGRAFT presents fast osteointegration and a complete remodelling.1
The clinical indications of BIOCERA-VET SMARTGRAFT* are:
• Arthrodesis
• Fractures
• Corrective osteotomy
• TTA (Tibial Tuberosity Advancement)
• All indications for which bone grafts are required
*Available to order at Vi for UK and Ireland customers only.
