A bone material for hydration with a liquid is provided, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of milled and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass having no binder disposed in or on the coherent mass. In some embodiments, a bone material for hydration with a liquid is provided, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of cartridge milled, lyophilized and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass having no binder on the coherent mass. In some embodiments, a method of implanting a bone material is provided, the method comprising contacting the bone material with a liquid, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of cartridge milled, lyophilized and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass having no binder disposed in or on the coherent mass; molding the bone material into a shape to implant the bone material; and implanting the bone material at the target tissue site.
A method of implanting a bone material to a target tissue site, the method comprising contacting the bone material with a liquid, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of cartridge milled, lyophilized and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass of bone fibers having no binder disposed in or on the coherent mass;
A method of implanting a bone material to a target tissue site, the method comprising providing the bone material and contacting the bone material with a liquid, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of milled and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass of milled and demineralized bone fiber having no binder disposed in or on the coherent mass, wherein the coherent mass is shaped into a cylinder and the cylinder has hydration channels on an exterior surface of the coherent mass, the hydration channels extending along a longitudinal axis of the cylinder.
A method of implanting a bone material to a target tissue site, the method comprising contacting the bone material for hydration with a liquid, the bone material comprising a coherent mass of cartridge milled, lyophilized and demineralized bone fibers, the coherent mass of milled, lyophilized and demineralized bone fibers having no binder disposed in or on the coherent mass, wherein the coherent mass is shaped as a cylinder and the cylinder has hydration channels on an exterior surface, the hydration channels extending along a longitudinal axis of the cylinder.
