BioScaff Alvelac - Product Application

Bioscaff™ Alvelac™ is intended to be used as a scaffold for alveolar sockets after tooth extraction. After extraction, as part of the natural healing process, the tooth socket is usually filled with a blood clot and bone is eventually regenerated in a period of approximately two to six months. There would also be some degree of socket contraction and resorption which will result in the reduced bone height of the alveolus. A bio-scaffold is intended to help maintain the original height and width of the socket so that there would be minimal bone loss and a good bone structure. Bioscaff™ Alvelac™ is designed to maintain socket height and width, which will allow for natural bone healing. In addition, it will dissolve in approximately two to six months, and will not act as a source of infection. It will also help to facilitate future dental procedures, such as implants, denture! s or bridges. There would be obvious benefit for any patients contemplating dental implants as there would be less of a need for additional surgery like bone grafting for inadequate bony configuration after dental extraction. After tooth extraction:
  • Natural healing of dental socket is expected
  • Bone loss leading to decrease in alveolar bone height & width
  • Long term stability of implants affected
Preservation of bone height and volume is essential for
  • dental implant stability
  • denture stability
  • soft tissue aesthetics
  • maintaining the integrity of adjacent teeth
Bone preservation can be achieved by using Bioscaff™ Alvelac™
  • Alvelac™ restricts bone resorption & loss
  • Prevents collapse of alveolar ridge
  • Aids remodelling of bone to d [...]
