Abstract:
The present invention generally relates to the use of pre-formed bodies of Chemically Bonded Ceramics (CBCs) biomaterial for implantation purposes wherein the bodies are prepared ex vivoallowing process parameters to be optimized for desired long term properties of theresulting CBC biomaterial. More particularly, the pre-formed CBC material bodies of the present inven- tion are sintered. The pre-formed body of CBC material is machined to the desired geometry and then implanted using a CBC cementation pastefor fix- ation of the body to tissue. The invention also relates to a method of prepar- ing pre-formed bodies of CBC biomaterial for implantation purposes, meth- ods of preparing an implant thereof having desired geometry, and a method of implantation of the implant, as well as a kit for use in the method of im- plantation.
Abstract:
A system for a chemically bonded ceramic material, comprising an aqueous hydration liquid and a powdered material, the binder phase of which essentially consisting of a cement system, which powdered material has the capacity following saturation with the hydration liquid reacting with the binder phase to hydrate to a chemically bonded ceramic material. According to the invention, the powdered material comprises a first part component for the formationof an organic phase in the ceramic material and the hydration liquid comprises a second part component for the formation of said organic phase. The invention also relates to the powdered material and the hydration liquid, respectively, the formed ceramic material, a method for the production of the material and a device for storing the powdered material and mixing it with the hydration liquid.

Abstract:
A system for a dental filling material or an implant material, alternatively a system for bonding between a tooth or a bone and a dental filling material and a implant material, respectively, which system comprises a water based hydration liquid and a powdered material, the binder phase of which powdered material essentially consisting of a calcium based cement system, which powdered material has the capacity following saturation with the liquid reacting with the binder phase to hydrate to a chemically bonded ceramic material. According to the invention, said powdered material and/or said hydration liquid comprises water soluble phosphate or a phase that has the capacity to form water soluble phosphate, whereby the system exhibits the capacity during hydration to form apatite. The invention also relates to the powdered material and the hydration liquid as such, an implant material and a method of achieving bonding.
