InterGro® DBM
DBM in a Natural Carrier Designed to Provide Preferred Handling and Growth Factors.
Shaping the Future of DBM
The natural quality of the carrier and its containment and handling characteristics enable the surgeon to mold it to surgical sites, even in the presence of excessive fluids and under lavage.
System Features
InterGro DBM Fibers are composed of 100% Demineralized human cortical bone fibers and offer both osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Upon re-hydration the graft becomes flexible and moldable allowing it to be conveniently placed into bony voids or gaps that have been surgically created, or for filling osseous defects in non-weight bearing applications.
Biocompatibility
The carrier used in InterGro DBM is composed primarily of phosphatidylcholine, commonly referred to as lecithin. Lecithin is 100% natural, derived from soybeans, absorbed by the human body, and is key component of cell membranes.
Preferred Handling
InterGro DBM is stored at room temperature and is available as a 40% DBM putty, 35% DBM paste, or a 35% DBM PLUS pre-mixed with Pro Osteon® 500R granules. Because InterGro DBM is non-water soluble, it resists lavage/irrigation.
