Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

At Park Compounding Pharmacy we make a variety of specially compounded products for dentists. Our topical anesthetics are used at dental offices throughout the country including our popular “Baddest Topical in Town.” We also compound bone binders that work in combination with other products to help natural bone reformation. They are used by dentists for different bone grafting procedures including alveolar ridge preservation grafts.

Compound Bone Binders

Calcium sulfate (plaster of Paris) is one ingredient frequently used for bone and guided tissue regeneration. It has been used in dentistry for many years to fill bone defects and help the natural healing process. Calcium sulfate works well in bone binders because it is resorbed by the body at the rate of new bone growth. It not only acts as a binder that can prevent the loss of graft material  but also helps by depositing calcium sulfate in a kind of trellis to support new bone growth.

Our Fusion bone binder contains a calcium sulfate/carboxymethylcellulose material. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) is another ingredient used in bone binder. Like calcium sulfate it is a tested, biocompatible material. This is mixed with a gentamicin solution as well for patient safety. The calcium sulfate/CMC combination can control particles in a defect where bony walls are insufficient to stabilize a graft. Each graft set of Fusion bone binder comes with two luer lock syringes for mixing purposes. Instructions for using Fusion can be found here.

Our Garg bone binder is a combination of CMC with glycerin. Our syringes come with 1mL of bone graft material to be mixed with the doctor’s preferred particulate bone. You can get instructions for Garg bone binder here.

Brand Name Bone Binders

There are several brands of binders for bone grafting available and some of them have similar ingredients. The difference can come down to the quality of the production process, customer service, and price. Park Compounding Pharmacy has a customer care team dedicated to handling questions and concerns quickly. We also have the most competitive pricing for many products used in dentistry including topical anesthetics.
