Bone substitute made from a Brazilian oyster shell functions as a fast stimulator for bone-forming cells in an animal model.
Despite their demonstrated biocompatibility and osteogenic properties, oyster shells have been reported as a potential alternative to other commonly used materials for bone substitution. This study evaluated whether an experimental bone substitute (EBS) made from a typical oyster shell of Northeaste...
