Laddec, from BioHorizons and Osteotech, is a processed cancellous bone of bovine origin with structure and chemical composition similar to that of human bone. It is a safe biocompatible bone graft which provides an excellent osteoconductive scaffold that assists with the rapid regeneration of bone and remodels the bone graft into host bone.
It is available in a variety of forms including particulate (in a jar or syringe), cube or block. The processing element preserves the natural mineral and collagen framework unlike similar competitive products.
