Absorbable Bone Screws for Orthopedic Fixation

Absorbable Bone Screws for Orthopedic Fixation

This absorbable bone screw is specifically designed for trauma and orthopedic procedures, providing reliable fixation while avoiding the complications associated with permanent implants. Made from high-performance biodegradable polymer poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), it gradually degrades in the body through hydrolysis, reducing the risk of postoperative complications and eliminating the need for a second removal surgery. It is especially suitable for pediatric patients, craniomaxillofacial repairs, and other clinical cases where long-term implants are not desirable.

Indications for Absorbable Bone Screws:

1. Maxillofacial fractures;

2. Orthognathic surgery;

3. Fixation of bone grafts.

FAQ:

Q1: What are the advantages of absorbable bone screws compared to metal screws?
Absorbable bone screws eliminate the need for secondary removal surgery, reduce the risk of long-term complications caused by permanent implants, and are especially suitable for pediatric patients and sensitive anatomical areas.

Q2: How are absorbable bone screws sterilized and packaged?
Our absorbable bone screws are EO sterilized and individually packed in double sterile blisters. All packaging complies with international medical device standards to ensure product safety and shelf stability.

Q3: Are absorbable bone screws as strong as metal screws?
While absorbable screws are not as strong as titanium screws, they are engineered to provide sufficient mechanical stability for small bone fixation and healing during the critical early stages. For suitable indications, they offer reliable performance without the need for removal.

Q4: What are the clinical indications for absorbable bone screws?
Common indications include maxillofacial fractures, orthognathic surgery, pediatric fractures, ligament fixation, and bone graft stabilization. They are particularly useful in cases where long-term metallic implants are not desirable.

Q5: Can absorbable bone screws be customized?
Yes, we offer OEM/ODM services and can manufacture screws in various lengths, diameters, and thread profiles based on your requirements. Custom packaging and branding are also available.
