Why do we use synthetic hydroxyapatite ?
MyBone is made of hydroxyapatite, a bioceramic known as the major component of the natural human bone.
Moreover, hydroxyapatite is an advanced biomimetic material well-known for its oesteoconductive and osseointegration properties. CERHUM has validated MyBone bioceramic in terms of biocompatibility through in vitro and preclinical studies.
The mechanical properties of MyBone vary depending on the porosity and is adapted to its functionality. Its compressive strength is very close to trabecular bone (1 to 5 MPa) [3].
