OSTEOCONDUCTIVE PROPERTIES

Osteoconductivity ensures physical and mechanical integration with the encompassing bone, which successively prevents micro-movements and therefore the possibility of early mechanical loading in- vivo .
Bone is made by a series of complex events involving the mineralization of extracellular matrix proteins rigidly orchestrated by cells with specific functions of maintaining the integrity of the bone. Bone, almost like other calcified tissues, is an intimate composite of the organic (collagen and noncollagenous proteins) and inorganic or mineral phases.  CaP biomaterials have outstanding properties: similarity in composition to bone mineral; bioactivity (ability to make bone apatitelike material or carbonate hydroxyapatite on their surfaces), ability to market cellular function.Osteoconduction occurs when the bone graft material is a scaffold for brand spanking new bone growth that's perpetuated by the native bone.
