ArrowBone™
- Pure phase tricalcium phosphate bone grafting material that is completely
resorbable, while simultaneously enabling new bone formation.
- Its unique osteoconductive granule structure with open micro- and macropores
allows faster replacement by newly formed autogenous bone.

- Osteoconductivity:
The material is biocompatible and serves as a scaffold for new bone formation
generated from the surrounding existing bone.
- Space maintenance capability and physical strength:
Capability of maintaining space in the scaffold for new bone formation.
- Bioactivity:
Capability of promoting new bone formation (including bone healing).
From the viewpoint of osteoconductivity, space maintenance capability, and bioactivity, ArrowBone tricalcium phosphate (TCP) is very suitable bone grafting material.
- ArrowBones are bone grafting materials that have excellent biocompatibility
and higher bioresorbability, which have been achieved using our own proprietary
manufacturing method.
- ArrowBone-α is made of very pure α-tricalcium phosphate granule ceramics
with a unique micro- and macropore structure.
- ArrowBone-β is made of very pure β-tricalcium phosphate granule ceramics
with a unique micro- and macropore structure.
- Single-phase ceramic granules of very pure tricalcium phosphate
- The osteoconductive scaffold stimulates cellular activity as a result of
its excellent biocompatibility and higher osteoconductivity
- The unique granule structure with open micro- and macropores provides space for cells to function and promotes attachment, proliferation, and differentiation
- Vascularization in macropores and subsequent new bone regeneration,degradation,
and resorption occur in balance and bone substitution results.
- Due to its unique micro- and macroporous structure, new bone tissue forms
in pores and better initial fixation is expected. In addition, as blood
clots tend to get tangled when implanting the material, it allows for easier
implantation surgery.
- Due to our high-purity chemical synthesis materials, potential infection
risks associated with bone substitutes of biological origin are avoided.
