[nanoPost] Soft tissue nanostructured surface modification

Company Finland

The product represents a treatment option for any medical device implanted in the body, be it metal, ceramic or polymer, providing new life to the implant. The product  provides safe attachment to soft tissue; drastically reducing inflammatory reactions while speeding up the healing response without scar tissue side effects. These properties as well as the product’s effective osteoconductivity makes this form of surface modification with The product  a valuable treatment option.

Key benefits of The product 
With complete attachment of soft tissue The product  surface modification allows the following benefits:

faster healing of soft tissue area
reduced infection risk
reduced inflammation
no dense fibrous encapsulation

The product is also known to be Osteoconductive in bone area.

Research
The product Low temperature modification

Currently different research projects are ongoing in which the The product low temperature modification
is applied on heat-sensitive polymer substrates. This broadens a lot of the implant application areas currently limited to using metallic implants. In addition several different soft tissue types are tested. 

Development
The product High temperature modification

The product development phase is currently ongoing with soft tissue penetrating titanium implants such as hearing aids and dental implants. 

Clinical reseach
Currently the quality certified The product process is tested in two different clinical trials:

Hearing aid
Dental
