Bone Shavings

Bone chips are bone tissue crushed into shavings or crumbs. It is used to fill various defects in the bone such as cracks, fractures and other damage. Grinding bone tissue into shavings or crumbs makes it possible to obtain a material with high strength and resistance to mechanical stress.

Bone chips are made from various types of bones, such as veal, pork, beef and others. After grinding the bone tissue, small pieces are obtained that have the shape of shavings. These chips have a porous structure and contain large amounts of minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and magnesium.

When using bone chips to fill defects in bone, they can be used alone or in combination with other materials. For example, bone chips can be mixed with calcium hydroxyapatite, which is a major component of bone matrix.

The use of bone chips in medicine has many advantages. It has high strength, resistance to mechanical loads and the ability to heal bone defects. In addition, bone chips do not cause allergic reactions and do not contain harmful substances.

However, when using bone chips, the potential risks must be considered. In some cases, bone chips can cause irritation and inflammation of surrounding tissue and can also cause infection. In addition, if bone chips are used incorrectly, problems may arise with its removal from the wound.

Overall, bone chips are an effective material for filling bone defects and have many medical benefits. However, when using it, you must take all precautions and follow the recommendations of doctors.



Bone chips are bone tissue crushed into plates or particles. In surgery and medicine, this material is used to eliminate bone tissue defects in fractures and other traumatic injuries of long bones. In human bones, two types of tissue predominate: the bony skeleton, consisting of bones, and the soft inner surface of the bone, which ensures its strength and nutrition, as well as the supply of oxygen. Not a single bone is a homogeneous body - they have a complex histological structure. The structure of any healthy bone is a relatively durable material containing cylindrical bone cells (osteoblasts) that are capable of multiplying, forming new cells, which over time turn into mineral elements, forming a lamellar structure of mineral cells and organic intercellular substance. However, various types of bone damage, chronic inflammatory processes accompanied by destruction of bone tissue, lack of nutrition of bone cells, and other reasons can lead to metabolic disorders in bone cells. These bone conditions are characterized by destructive processes. IN
