Abstract
The disclosed subject matter refers to hydroxyapatite and bioglass-based pellets of homogeneous size and spherical shape, whose interconnective porous structure, in the micrometer range, allows for an enhanced osteoconductivity and osteointegration, with specific application as a synthetic bone graft and to the respective production process. The production process is based on the pharmaceutical technology of extrusion and spheronization employing a porogenic agent and applying a sinterization stage in the presence of a vitreous liquid phase, which reverts on behalf of a higher reproducibility, superior yield and greater production capacity. Therefore, the disclosed subject matter is directed to the production of hydroxyapatite and bioglass-based pellets with applications in osteoregenerative medicine, particularly in the fields of orthopaedic surgery, maxillofacial surgery, dental surgery, implantology and as tissue engineering scaffolds
