Resumen

The present invention refers to synthetic monetite matrices with different degrees of porosity and their application in bone regeneration. These matrices are produced from a brushite cement resulting from mixing a solid phase containing a basic calcium phosphate and an acid calcium phosphate, and the incorporation of an aqueous phase. The resulting solid brushite matrix is subsequently converted into monetite by heat treatment. These synthetic monetite matrices can be made as granules or preformed shapes with different porosities, and can be made to incorporate bioactive agents that promote bone formation.
