growth-stimulating substances such as collagen, proteins and growth
factors. Dr. Corenman says DBM, which has osteoinduction and
osteoconduction capabilities, comes in a variety of forms and has a
low risk of disease transmission. However, he points out, DBM isn't
strong enough to promote bone fusion by itself, so it's typically com-
bined with other types of grafts.
• Human recombinant proteins such as bone morphogenetic pro-
teins are effective but expensive growth factors with limited FDA-
approved indications, says Philip F. Stahel, MD, FACS, chief medical
officer at North Suburban Medical Center in Thornton, Colo., and a
professor of orthopedics and neurosurgery at Rocky Vista University
College of Osteopathic Medicine in Parker, Colo.
The benefits of using synthetic bone grafts are that they carry no

Composition & Structure
BonGold™ is composed of hydroxyapatite and collagen in
the same ratio as natural bone. It has the same
microstructure as natural bone.
We !atten the competition.
By design, BonGold™ becomes bone at the body's natural rate, in
3 to 6 months. Other bone grafts linger unresorbed, even years
later. BonGold™ is incorporated fast and fully—a long-term
solution. BonGold™ beats the competition on price, too.
Osteo-Conductive/Osteo-Inductive
BonGold™ matrix, porosity, and structure display both
osteo-conductive (HA) and osteo-inductive (collagen)
characteristics, both fundamental to natural bone regeneration.
Rapid Absorption Rate & Long-Term E"cacy
BonGold™ absorption time is similar to the body's natural
bone regeneration rate (3-6 months).
