- In Germany alone, every year about 800,000 tooth implants are placed.
In the case of almost every second patient bone augmentation is
necessary, because the jawbone atrophy is already too advanced.
EnBIO
today launched its OsteoZipTM surface, which has been designed to
enhance the osteointegration and early bone fixation of orthopedic
implants into host bone tissue. OsteoZip is a revolutionary new
hydroxyapatite (HA) surface that is ideal for orthopedic and dental
implants. Applied and enabled by EnBIO's CoBlastTM surface modification
process, OsteoZip heralds a new era of functional surfaces for
orthopedic implants. The CoBlast process is non-complex, room
temperature and requires no wet chemistry, providing orthopedic implant
OEMs with a state-of-the-art surface at a competitive cost. The CoBlast
process is in fact a novel variation of grit-blasting-a well practiced
process in the medical device industry-and the CoBlast processing
equipment is essentially a modified version of standard grit blasting
equipment.
