Immediate Mechanical Strength

After implanting in the human body for 6 months, the mechanical strength of the screw is grater than cancellous bone, and the elasticity modulus are colse to the cancellous bone, which allows small movements of the broken ends of fractured bone and be beneficial to the fracture. As the fixtures degrades, the stress will be gradually passed on to the healing fracture interface to reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

Biodegradation

• It degrades by bodily fluids through hydrosis process. It degrades at the pace it is replaced by newly regenerated bone.
• It provides Superior Biological Performance comparing to metallic screws. Minimal head protrusion.
• No risk of screw brakeage before removal due to biodegradation of the screw. (no removal needed)
• Screw can be cut in lentgh after implantation
