The Science Behind OSSIOfiber®
OSSIOfiber® Intelligent Bone Regeneration Technology
Why Bio-Integrative Fixation?
Bio-Integrative OSSIOfiber® is a breakthrough fixation material technology that provides the first credible solution to the shortcomings of permanent metal hardware, conventional bio-resorbable and allograft implants.
It’s stronger than cortical bone, stronger and more predictable than polymers alone, and without the foreign body reactions, stress-shielding, and potential patient discomfort or removal risks commonly associated with permanent metal hardware.
Strong and Bio-Integrative OSSIOfiber® implants provide a unique matrix of natural mineral like those already found in bone and a PLDLA mixture to support strong fixation and enable early bone attachment, gradual bone and tissue ingrowth, and complete integration, all without local or systemic adverse response.
OSSIOfiber® offers surgeons and patients the confidence and certainty of a fully Bio-Integrative solution that utilizes existing reimbursement and surgical techniques and provides a more natural healing environment.
Proven Materials In A Strong and Bio-Integrative Matrix
Engineered for rapid bone in-growth, regeneration and replacement
Natural Mineral Fibers
Thousands of continuous natural mineral fibers are organized into a custom matrix designed to optimize strength at vital implant locations and allow bone in-growth.
- Mineral fibers are composed of Silicon Dioxide (SiO2), Sodium Oxide, Calcium Oxide, Magnesium Oxide, Boron Trioxide, and Phosphorous Pentoxide.
- Minerals have been in clinical use for over 30 years, most commonly as osteoconductive bone void fillers

SEE FUSION, NOT HARDWARE
The X-rays are of two similar patients who underwent an identical surgical approach. One patient was treated with bio-Integrative OSSIOfiber® while the other was treated with traditional metal compression screws.*
