Abstract
Implantable devices that comprise an improved bone graft material, such as for example, bioactive glass, are disclosed. Additionally, implantable devices that work in conjunction with an improved bone graft material and act as a composite implantable device, for the improved treatment of bone, are also disclosed. These devices are bioactive, and are engineered to provide enhanced cellular activity to promote bone fusion or regrowth.
Claims17
An implantable device comprising:
- a main body comprising a plurality of compressed bioactive glass fibers and at least one bundle of compressed bioactive glass fibers within the main body, the main body and the at least one bundle having different fiber densities and porosities;
- wherein the device has a shape and geometry configured for insertion between adjacent bone segments to facilitate bone fusion.
