Abstract:
1. A method of treating bone loss and repairs thereof, comprising: making an incision in gum tissue adjacent a bony defect and reflecting a flap of said tissue to expose said defect; debriding said defect and adjacent tooth roots at said defect; placing a bone repair material in said defect; and closing said tissue flap to cover the treated defect, wherein the bone repair material, comprises: a porous, resorbable particulate derived of anorganic bone mineral or natural bone miner or synthetic hydroxyapatite, and a resorbable carrier gel component for suspending said particulate, said gel component having a sufficiently high molecular weight and concentration wherein concentration of the particulate material is sufficiently high such that the bone repair is facilitated while migration and expansion of said material is minimized.
