Oragraft® MD 70/30
OraGraft MD 70/30 is a particulate bone graft combining 70% mineralized ground cortical with 30% demineralized ground cortical. The combination leverages the benefits of space maintenance with ground cortical with the osteoinductive potential of demineralized ground cortical. This combination has been shown in studies to provide a favorable environment for the regeneration of vital bone.1-5
- Convenient: 70/30 mix reduces time to blend grafts chair-side and minimizes the need to carry multiple graft types in inventory.
- Sterile: Sterilized using patented and proprietary Allowash XG® technology, which provides a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6, without compromising the graft’s inherent osteoconductive properties.6
- Packaging: Double-barrier sterile packaged for aseptic delivery to the sterile field.
- Osteoconductive: Natural bone matrix facilitates cell attachment and proliferation as well as vascular in-growth.
- Osteoinductive Potential: Demineralized using proprietary PAD® technology that targets optimal residual calcium levels of 1-4% without compromising the graft’s inherent osteoconductive properties or osteoinductive potential.7-10
