Effects of additional collagen in biphasic calcium phosphates: a study in a rabbit calvaria

ConclusionsWithin its limitations, the study results qualify collagen as a biocompatible carrier for BCPs. The presence of collagen indicated neither significant impact on the resorption of the BCPs nor on bone formation.Clinical relevanceThe addition of collagen to BCPs might not be beneficial for the augmentation of extended bone deficiencies.
