Intended Use
Straumann® cerabone® is used in the following intra-oral surgical procedures: - Alveolar ridge augmentation/ reconstruction - Filling of defects after root resection and apicoectomy - Filling alveoli after tooth extraction - Sinus elevation
Device Story
Straumann® cerabone® is a xenogeneic hydroxyapatite bone grafting material derived from bovine cancellous bone. The manufacturing process involves high-temperature sintering (up to 1250°C) to eliminate organic components, reducing rejection risks. The resulting material is a porous scaffold (>95% pentacalcium-hydroxy-tri-phosphate) with interconnected macro- and micro-pores (100–1,500 µm) that mimic human bone structure. Used by dental clinicians in intra-oral surgical procedures, the granules are implanted into a vital bone bed. The material acts as an osteoconductive scaffold, facilitating cell adhesion and stabilizing new bone matrix deposition. Over 6–8 months, the graft integrates into newly formed bone. It is provided in various particle sizes and volumes, packaged in a triple sterile barrier system, and terminally sterilized via gamma irradiation.
Clinical Evidence
Evidence includes bench testing, animal studies, and clinical literature review. Bench testing confirmed physicochemical properties per ASTM F1185-03 and F1581-99, and viral inactivation per ISO 22442-3. Biocompatibility was validated per ISO 10993 series (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, subchronic toxicity, genotoxicity, implantation). An animal kinetic study in minipigs demonstrated osteoconductive capacity equivalent to the predicate. Clinical literature review supports the safety and efficacy for the proposed indications.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Xenogenic hydroxyapatite (≥95% Ca5(PO4)3(OH)) derived from bovine cancellous bone. Structure: Interconnected macro- (65–80 vol%) and micro-porous. Granule sizes: 0.5–1.0 mm and 1.0–2.0 mm. Sterilization: Gamma irradiation. Packaging: Triple sterile barrier (glass vial and two blisters). Standards: ASTM F1185-03, ASTM F1581-99, ISO 10993, ISO 11137-1, ISO 22442-3.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring intra-oral surgical procedures including alveolar ridge augmentation/reconstruction, filling of defects after root resection and apicoectomy, filling of alveoli after tooth extraction, and sinus elevation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Bone grafting material is a material such as hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, polylactic and polyglycolic acids, or collagen, that is intended to fill, augment, or reconstruct periodontal or bony defects of the oral and maxillofacial region.
Special Controls

Due to the animal-derived starting material, Straumann® cerabone® possesses an interconnected macro- and micro-porous structure that strongly resembles human bone structure. The macroporosity lies within a range of 65–80 vol % and the pore size lies within a range of approximately 100 - 1,500 um. After implantation, the particles serve as an osteoconductive guide rail for new bone formation. The grafting material has high stability over several years with only minor signs of graft resorption.
Straumann® cerabone® acts as a scaffold for stabilization and the deposition of new bone matrix. Due to porosity and rough surface structure, Straumann® cerabone® facilitates cell adhesion. Subsequently, bone formation starts by deposition of primarily not yet mineralized bone matrix. Within a time period of six to eight months following implantation, the graft is integrated into the newly formed bone matrix.
Straumann® cerabone® is biocompatible and packed in a triple sterile barrier system consisting of a glass vial and two outer blisters and subject to sterilization by qammairradiation.
Straumann® cerabone® is offered in two particle size ranges (0.5 – 1.0 mm and 1.0 – 2.0 mm) and various pack sizes (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 cc).
