CERASORB® Foam is a highly porous composit made of porcine collagen and pure phase ß-TCP granules (Cerasorb granules) with different size and density. The collagen phase embeds the granules and fixes them within its fibrous structure. For use, the material should be moistened with blood from the defect. Due to the high binding capacity of collagen for physiological fluids, there is a large contact area to the surrounding vital bone by this the bone-forming cells can surround the material. Thereby, the absorption of nutrients and proteins is also facilitated. Bone regeneration is already supported effectively in the early phase.
BENEFITS
Support of early bone formation due to β-tricalcium phosphate and collagen combination
Moldable to the form of the defect
Very easy handling
Provides an open-cell structure that closely resembles human bone
Can be used as graft extender or to add radiopacity
Designed to provide long-term graft stability and maintenance of volume and aesthetic contour
Ability to include antibiotics for localized elution into the dental site
