ZenGro® Xenograft Bone Mineral – Supporting Bone Growth

ZenGro™ Xenograft Bone Mineral - Supporting Bone Growth

ZenGro® Xenograft Bone Mineral – Supporting Bone Growth

ZenGro features:

•    Highly porous scaffold that provides space for new bone deposition and vascularization (1)

•    Rough surface facilitates cell adhesion and spread for bone in-growth (1)

•    High volume fill per unit weight (1)

•    Carbonate apatite crystalline structure for better oseoconductivity than hydroxyapatite (2,3,4,5)

 

ZenGro’s indications for use:

•    Filling of extraction sockets to enhance preservation of the alveolar ridge

•    Augmentation or reconstructive treatment of the alveolar ridge

•    Filling of periodontal defects in conjunction with products intended for Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR)

•    Elevation of the maxillary sinus floor
