Novabone Dental Morsel - 0.5cc

Features
Clot Stabilization: Morsels have a transient hemostatic effect that promotes healing and clot stabilization
Antimicrobial: Morsels release ions that provide a local transient antimicrobial effect and a bacteriostatic effect on several strains of bacteria
Radioopaque: Morsels can be visualized on the radiograph as having a denser appearance than the adjacent bone
Osteostimulation: Morsels exhibit enhanced bone regeneration rates compared to xenograft substitutes due to a unique phenomenon: Osteostimulation

Storage & Shelf Life: Morsels do not require special storage conditions.
It can be stored at room temperature. 4-year shelf life

Description
NOVABONE DENTAL BONE GRAFT MORSELS

A majority of allograft and xenograft bone substitutes have morphological characteristics similar to that of natural bone: interconnected macro-porous structure. These grafts are primarily osteoconductive and hence the porosity plays a significant role in facilitating bone ingrowth and providing channels to form bone bridges. While NovaBone Dental Putty & PerioGlas create a virtual network of interconnected pores upon implantation, NovaBone Dental Morsels was developed to simulate the physical characteristics of xenografts and allografts. A combination of physical characteristics (macroporosity) and ionic release (overstimulation) differentiates NovaBone Dental Morsels from other products with similar appearance including allografts and xenografts. Being synthetic, NB Dental Morsels eliminates all concerns about disease transmission or immune responses.

NovaBone Morsels for orthopedic use was launched in 2007 while morsels for dental use were introduced in 2011.

NB Dental Morsels is a crystalline composite composed of oxides of silicon, calcium, sodium, and phosphorous in a silica base. The particle size ranges from 500 to 1000 with a mean particle size of 750. The pore size ranges from 50 to 100 with a pore volume of about 60%. The resorption characteristics and the particle size of NB Dental Morsels make it an ideal bone graft in sinus defects and other cranio maxillary defects.

Typical uses:

Although NB Dental Morsels can also be used in extraction sockets, NB Dental Putty is recommended for its ease of use and resorption characteristics. Dental Morsels give the defect structural support better than the particulate devices and hence form a good choice for reconstructive surgeries in esthetic areas.
