Augmentation of the atrophic edentulous ridge with porous replamineform hydroxyapatite (Interpore-200). 1986

J F Piecuch

The use of porous replamineform hydroxyapatites (Interpore-200) provides an opportunity for rapid stabilization of the ceramic implant by connective tissue and bony ingrowth into the porous network. The strength of the Interpore-200-tissue combination provides good resistance to denture forces. Once ingrown with tissue, the implants will remain well stabilized, appear resistant to local trauma, and have the capacity to heal if exposed, as a viable blood supply is contained within the material.

D006882	Hydroxyapatites	A group of compounds with the general formula M10(PO4)6(OH)2, where M is barium, strontium, or calcium. The compounds are the principal mineral in phosphorite deposits, biological tissue, human bones, and teeth. They are also used as an anticaking agent and polymer catalysts.
