Bonalive putty

Bonalive^®
putty

Bonalive^®putty is a highly moldable, easy-to-apply bone regeneration technology that naturally stimulates bone formation.

Bonalive® putty is an optimized bone graft substitute for orthopedic, trauma and spine surgery. The putty can be delivered directly to the bone defect without mixing or preparation.

A bioactive, osteoconductive and osteostimulative* synthetic bone cavity filler, the putty is delivered as a sterile ready-to-use paste, requiring no mixing, moistening or other preparation. It consists of S53P4 bioactive glass in addition to a synthetic binder, i.e. a blend of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) and glycerol.

The putty’s radiodense quality enables post-operative evaluation, allowing surgeons to follow the healing of their patients. Unlike the granules, Bonalive® putty does not inhibit bacterial growth.

Intended use
