NuOSS® Granules

A New Generation of Bone Regeneration

NuOss® natural cancellous (spongiosa) and cortical bone matrix is produced by the removal of organic components from bovine bone. Due to its natural porous structure, NuOss is physically and chemically comparable to the mineralized matrix of human bone. The proprietary manufacturing process of NuOss allows for maintenance of the naturally occurring bone mineral structure, including macro and micro structures.

Due to this trabecular architecture with interconnecting macro and micro pores, the ingrowth of new bone and associated vascularization at the site of grafting is optimized. NuOss may be used with autogenous bone where there is an insufficient quantity of bone to fulfill the needs of the proposed surgical procedure.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. John Guariglia of Suffolk Oral Surgery Associates, LLP, of Brentwood, Stony Brook, Smithtown, and Holbrook, New York, has been using NuOss for approximately 10 years for a myriad of applications, “from implants to socket preservation, to bone regeneration procedures. I also use it for treating pathology such as tumors and cysts. Depending upon the lesion, I enucleate it, mix NuOss with alloOss® allograft and platelet-rich plasma and pack the defect.”

Dr. Guariglia explains that NuOss is his bone regeneration material of choice because “It is a great value; it adheres to the instruments, and it is very easy to use. Also, it’s available in all sizes I need for a majority of my procedures.”
The results from NuOss are quick and effective. Dr. Guariglia describes, “For example, I grafted bone for a patient 2 months ago, and now, his implants show maximum torque. No complaints. I was able to place implants in these grafts in 2 months, and I have solid bone to work with. That shows me that NuOss permits solid bone growth.”

NuOss® is recommended for:

• Ridge augmentations
• Filling of infrabony periodontal defects
• Filling of extraction sockets
• Elevating the maxillary sinus floor
• Filling of peri-implant defects

NuOss® features:

Handling: The structure of NuOss aids in particulate hydration and delivery of the product to the defect.
Particle Distribution: NuOss maximizes the distribution of the preferred particle sizing within desired ranges.
Particle Structure and Porosity: NuOss maintains the high porosity and trabecular structure of natural mineralized bone and maximizes the potential for angiogenesis.
