Human-Spongiosa

Human-Spongiosa is a freeze-dried human cancellous bone allograft used as a bone substitute material in regenerative dentistry and orthopedics. In the context of clinical research at University Medicine Greifswald, it is utilized for alveolar ridge preservation (socket preservation) following tooth extraction to prevent alveolar bone loss and bone resorption. The material acts as an osteoconductive scaffold, providing a natural trabecular structure that facilitates the migration of osteogenic cells and the formation of new host bone. By maintaining the volume and structural integrity of the alveolar ridge, Human-Spongiosa supports successful delayed dental implantation and helps preserve the aesthetic appearance of the surrounding soft tissue.
