For example, coral, calcium mineral and ceramic materials have osteoconductive effects. 4, record 1, English, - osteoconduction

En effet, grâce à sa structure macroporeuse, le matériau présente la capacité d'être colonisé par le tissu osseux. S'il existe un contact intime entre le biomatériau et l'os receveur en l'absence de mouvement à l'interface os-implant, le processus d'ostéoconduction peut se mettre en place grâce à des phénomènes cellulaires de colonisation osseuse. 4, record 1, French, - ost%C3%A9oconduction
