COMPOSITION COMPRISING CALCIUM PHOSPHATE AND SULFATE POWDERS AND TRI - CALCIUM PHOSPHATE PARTICLES USED IN THE TREATMENT OF DEGENERATIVE BONE CONDITIONS.

摘要

Methods and articles of manufacture for treating patients with degenerative bone are provided. The methods are useful to improve bone quality in a localized area of a degenerative bone (e.g., osteopenic or osteoporotic bone), such as by improving BMD to be substantially similar to BMD in an average, healthy individual at the age of peak BMD. The methods can comprise forming a void in a localized area of the degenerative bone and filling the void with a bone regenerative material that causes generation of new, healthy, natural bone material. The articles of manufacture can comprise kits formed of various materials useful in the inventive methods for improving bone quality.
