adbone® Product
Portfolio

Tarsal Medical brings Medbone's world-class synthetic bone graft range to South Africa — four clinically proven formulations for dental and orthopaedic applications, with zero animal derivatives.

Dental

adbone®TCP

Composition: 100% Synthetic β-TCP No animal derivatives

A fully synthetic bone graft material made of pure beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Designed with a multidirectional interconnected porosity that guides three-dimensional regeneration of bone — resorbed and progressively replaced by new bone as healing occurs.

Key Characteristics

Easy to Handle
Can be easily mixed with patient's blood. The hydrophilic behaviour confers high cohesivity of the particles for precise surgical placement.
Bone Regeneration
Promotes natural bone regeneration through interconnected porous structure, enhancing osteoconduction and progressive resorption.
Vascularisation
Interconnected porosity forms an ideal environment for vascularisation, supporting nutrient delivery throughout the graft site.
Totally Synthetic
Contains no animal or human tissues or derivatives. 100% synthetic β-TCP eliminates disease transmission risk.
Radiopaque
Allows monitoring of graft osteointegration through standard imaging, enabling precise post-operative follow-up assessment.
Highest Porosity
Engineered to achieve up to 70% porosity without compromising mechanical resistance — outperforming comparable alternatives.
Clinical Use

Dental Indications

Sinus Lift Augmentation
Crestal and lateral access procedures for maxillary sinus floor elevation prior to implant placement.
Alveolar Regeneration
Reconstruction of alveolar ridge defects following tooth extraction or periodontal disease.
Peri-implant Defects
Management of dehiscence and fenestration defects around dental implants.
Implantology
Bone void filling to support osseointegration and long-term dental implant stability.
Horizontal & Vertical Augmentation
Ridge width and height restoration for implant site preparation.
Maxillofacial & Cyst Defects
Tumour void filling and cystic defect reconstruction in the maxillofacial region.

Dental

adbone®BCP

Composition: 75% HAp + 25% β-TCP Biphasic resorption No animal derivatives

A fully synthetic biphasic bone graft combining 75% hydroxyapatite (HAp) and 25% beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). The dual-phase composition delivers staged resorption — HAp provides long-term structural stability while β-TCP promotes faster bone ingrowth.

Key Characteristics

Easy to Handle
Easily mixed with patient's blood. Hydrophilic behaviour of adbone® BCP confers high cohesivity of the particles for optimal placement.
Biphasic Bone Regeneration
The 75/25 HAp:β-TCP ratio delivers staged resorption — rapid early remodelling via TCP while HAp maintains scaffold integrity.
Vascularisation
Interconnected porosity forms an ideal microenvironment for vascularisation, ensuring nutrient and oxygen delivery throughout the graft.
Totally Synthetic
100% synthetic — no animal or human tissues or derivatives, eliminating disease transmission risk and immunological concerns.
Radiopaque
Radiopaque properties enable monitoring of graft osteointegration through standard dental and medical imaging modalities.
3D Bone Regeneration
Multidirectional interconnected porosity guides three-dimensional bone regeneration, resorbing as new bone replaces the scaffold.
Clinical Use

Dental Indications

Sinus Lift Augmentation
Crestal and lateral access procedures for maxillary sinus floor elevation.
Alveolar Regeneration
Post-extraction ridge preservation and regeneration procedures.
Peri-implant Defects
Treatment of dehiscence and fenestration around dental implants.
Crestal Augmentation
Ridge height and width restoration for implant site preparation.
Cyst Defect & Tumour Voids
Filling of cystic and tumour-related bone defects in the jaw.
Implantology & Bone Augmentation
General bone void filling and augmentation to support dental implant outcomes.

Orthopaedic

adbone®TCP

Composition: 100% Synthetic β-TCP No animal derivatives

A fully synthetic bone graft made of pure beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), formulated for the demands of orthopaedic surgery. Features multidirectional interconnected porosity for three-dimensional bone regeneration, with complete resorption and replacement by native bone over time.

Key Characteristics

Easy to Handle
Can be easily mixed with patient's blood or autologous bone marrow. Hydrophilic behaviour confers high cohesivity for precise surgical delivery.
Bone Regeneration
Promotes natural bone regeneration through its interconnected porous structure, enhancing osteoconduction and 3D tissue ingrowth.
Vascularisation
Interconnected porosity forms an ideal environment for vascularisation, critical in orthopaedic applications with high mechanical demand.
Totally Synthetic
No animal or human tissues or derivatives — eliminates biological risk, ideal for patients where allograft is not appropriate.
Radiopaque
Allows monitoring of graft osteointegration through X-ray and CT imaging, enabling precise surgical and post-operative assessment.
Maximum Porosity
Engineered to achieve the highest porosity without compromising mechanical resistance — critical for load-bearing orthopaedic applications.
Clinical Use

Orthopaedic Indications

Extremities
Hand and foot surgery; arthrodesis for arthritis, joint instability, joint deformities, or fractures.
Long Bones
Filling of bone defects due to injury, tumour, trauma, or congenital conditions — including arthrodesis and osteotomy.
Spinal Surgery
Cage fillings and posterolateral fusions for spinal reconstruction and stabilisation.
Bone Cavity Filling
Void filling for bone cysts and tumour-related defects requiring structural support.
Craniofacial Surgery
Cage fillings and posterolateral fusions in craniofacial reconstruction procedures.
Sports Surgery
Knee, elbow, and shoulder surgery — reconstruction of bone defects from sports-related injury.
