NanoBone® technology


What does the NanoBone® technology do?

  1. Autologous proteins from the blood come into the nanopores and cover the entire internal surface (> 80 m²/g) of the granules. Thus, the body recognises NanoBone® as a material peculiar to the body.
  2. The fluffy structure allows for the quick growth of capillaries. This process is facilitated by the change of matrix.
  3. NanoBone® is completely substituted by bone during the process. With stabilised volume, NanoBone® is resorbed to the extent to which new, autologous bone is formed. * Meier et al.
  4. Within a few days, the silica gel matrix is replaced by an organic matrix that contains important proteins for osteogenesis (BMP, osteocalcin, osteopontin etc.).* Götz et al.
  5. Osteoclasts resorb the NanoBone® granules like bone. At the same time, osteoblasts form new natural bone. This resorption of the bone augmentation material and the formation of new, autologous bone take place in the same way as natural remodeling.
