The invention features adhesive devices for holding objects (e.g., bone fragments) fixed with respect to each other.

A bone cement composition including a powder component, a liquid component, and hyaluronic acid (HA) or a salt thereof in an amount ranging from 0.01% to 10% w/w in the powder component and/or in the liquid component. The powder component includes calcium phosphate compounds having at least alpha-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) and having at least calcium-deficient apatite (CDA). Also, a bone cement obtainable by a process including the following steps: (i) the preparation of a cement composition by mixing the powder component, and the liquid component and (ii) the setting of the cement composition. Further, the use in vitro or ex vivo of a bone cement composition or bone cement in the manufacture of a dental or bony implant.

Implantable bone compositions are provided. The implantable compositions comprise hydratable bone putties. The hydratable bone putties comprise porous ceramic granules having an average diameter from about 50 μm to 800 μm. The porous ceramic granules comprise hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate. The implantable bone compositions further include collagen carriers. In some embodiments, the hydratable bone putty can be hydrated to form a non-settable flowable cohesive cement or gel. Methods of making and using the implantable compositions are also provided.

A process of bone creation between adjacent vertebrae uses an intervertebral stabilizing screw, which includes a main body with an axial through hole, a distal thread and at least one fill hole. A hollow proximal secondary body of the screw includes an external thread a travel stop. The process includes inserting the main body until the distal thread is secured to an upper vertebrae of the adjacent vertebrae such that the at least one fill hole is in inside of the disk, inserting the proximal body until reaching to the limit stop such that the proximal body is threaded inside of a pedicle and secured to a lower vertebrae of the adjacent vertebrae, and injecting a bone remodeling composition into inside of the disk through the axial hole and the at least one fill hole.

A bone pore or void filling composition is described. The composition includes a mixture of: a type I collagen and/or a type I collagen-glycosaminoglycan coprecipitate; a blend of polyethylene glycol polymers having different molecular weights; a bone growth stimulator; and bioactive glass. A kit for containing the bone pore or void filling composition, and methods for using the composition to fill a bone pore or void are also described.

Provided herein are bone hemostatic and adhesive compositions for use in surgical procedures comprising a variety of disclosed particles. Also provided are related compositions, including surgical hardware, surgical kits and packages, as well as methods of making and using the compositions.
