Application of bio-compositional calcium-phosphate materials to osteoplastic surgery

An osteoconductive biocomposite BAK-1000 has been developed, consisting of hydroxyapatite and a silicate matrix similar in chemical composition to sodium-calcium feldspars. Morphological studies of the BAK-1000 biocomposite made it possible to suggest the mechanisms of deposition of the first product of osteogenesis, collagen, on the surface of open pores of the material in a living organism with the formation of strong chemical bonds. On the basis of the BAK-1000 biocomposite, sets of implants for maxillofacial surgery and neurosurgery have been developed and introduced into clinical practice.
