A biocompatible synthetic porous (bone) substitute, with a multidirectional interconnected porous structure, similar to that of human cancellous bone, designed for use in periodontal, oral and maxillofacial surgery.

What makes the difference?

creos™ syntogain is the latest generation of synthetic bone graft. Its advanced manufacturing process1 in an aqueous environment and at low temperature enables to get a bone graft with key differentiators.

creos syntogain granules

Unique round shape of the granules1,2

Makes it easy to apply in situ.3

Avoids stacking effect.4

High-hydrophilicity4

Allows an easy hydration and granule handling.3

Non-sintered1

Micropores and osteoconductivity are not reduced by heat treatment.5,6 

UNIQUE COMPOSITION OF THE MATERIAL1,7,8

80% of Calcium Deficient Hydroxyapatite (CDHA) and 20% of BTCP (beta-tricalcium phosphate).

MICROSCOPIC SURFACE MADE OF NANOCRYSTALS1,9

High specific surface area1,10,11 and high microporosity1,12. 

BONE STABILITY1,2

The bone is stable and it maintains the volume of the defect starting from day one, based on clinical case series1,13

 

Advanced manufacturing process1

IT'S BIOMIMETIC1,7,8

creos syntogain advanced manufactured process  enables to get a unique composition of the material that  mimics human bone that is also made of CDHA.1,7,8

The closer a material resembles human bone, the better it is for bone formation.14

Traditional calcium phosphate (HA / B-TCP) synthetics

Traditional calcium phosphate (HA / B-TCP) synthetics
High-temperature manufacturing process: passivates materials and reduces the potential of the host to interact with it.

Biomimetic

creos syntogain biomimetic calcium phosphate (CDHA / B-TCP)
Low-temperature manufacturing process: hydroxyapatite crystals grow slowly to mimic the structure and composition of human bone.

High specific surface area1,10,11

Thanks to the biomimetic manufacturing process, hydroxyapatite crystals grow on the surface of the granules. This increases the surface area and enables cell attachment for the bone generation.12

High specific surface area

The specific surface area was measured by nitrogen adsorption

High nano/micro-porosity

Pore entrance size distribution associated to the nano-, micro- and macrostructure in CDHA (1.): Barba et al 2016

High nano-/microporosity1,12

A nano-/microporosity similar to the natural bone’s structure allows good inflow of blood, cell colonization and reliable bone formation.


The solution mimics the natural porosity of bone.12

creos™ syntogain demonstrated non-inferiority when compared to the reference DBBM in terms of dimensional preservation of the alveolar ridge

In one of the largest randomized clinical trials (RCT) performed in dental bone regeneration15, 102 patients were randomized to receive bone augmentation using creos syntogain or the reference deproteinized bovine bone matrix (DBBM). Six months post grafting, the mean bone change in width and height was respectively -1.78% and 1.35% for creos syntogain (n=42) and -2.16% and 2.99% for the reference DBBM (n=41). The differences between the two materials were not statistically significant. The mean implant insertion torque was 36.2 Ncm at sites regenerated with creos syntogain and 35.1 Ncm at sites regenerated with the reference DBBM. For creos syntogain, 71.1% of the implants were placed with an insertion torque above 35 Ncm and 62.8% for the reference DBBM.

The bone is stable and it maintains the volume of the defect.2 When compared to reference product (DBBM), no statistically significant difference in the vertical and buccolingual dimensional change has been observed.15

Dimensional variation of the alveolar ridge at 6 months post bone grafting

Dimensional variation of the alveolar ridge at 6 months post bone grafting: measurements were made on CBCT, based on anatomical reference points (sinus floor or mandibular canal).

Implant stability graph

Implant stability and insertion torque: measured at the time of implant placement, 6 months post bone grafting. NobelParallel™ CC implant was used.
