Could they make implants out of it ?

sorry, good try Lestat and keep trying I don't mean to discourage you but this product can't be used as an onlay augmentation. you see that's really key for what we're looking for. Something that could potentially encourage bone to grow through it not just vascularization --cause if this stuff breaks it has to be replaced or if its infected again ---sure it's could encourage bone to grow through it if used as a graft between an osteotomy, but it won't as an onlay. that's the problem.

They say "Augmentation of facial bone defects in cosmetic surgery and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery" though...
-
And "To fill gaps between dental implants in jaw bones and to augment bone in cases where increase in bone width of the jaws is indicated (lateral augmentation" as well...

a graft between an osteotomy you say?
If that is possible it opens up a whole lot of options. The advancement on most of these osteotomies seems limited because worries that stem from gaps. If the gaps can be filled with this material, I imagine it means the options for augmentation can be improved dramatically.

for some reason, and I'm not claiming to understand it all myself, you can already use human bone from cadavers to fill in gaps at least for some osteotomies --i had it done for downgraft and Dr. Sinn said over time my own bone would fill up that graft. But to contour and augment as an onlay I don't think we have such a substance yet that will encourage oseoinduction or whatever it's called.

They say you can laterally augment bone with this...looks like onlays to me ...

As for cost, the coral-based bone grafts will be priced comparably with average bovine-based bone grafts, which sell for about $100 per cubic centimeter in the United States and are being used less frequently because of safety concerns.
What safety concerns!?

honestly, i don't mean to be negative but there's no way. This stuff is used for very limited dental implant reasons to just augment a little bit of the alveolar bone on top of the jaw bone ridge, it's not even for the jaw bone really, just the ridge where an implant needs to lodge.

Spot on.
