Abstrakt: An osteoconductive biocomposite BAK-1000 is developed, which consists of hydroxyapatite and a silicate matrix similar in its chemical composition to sodium-calcium feldspars. The morphological studies of BAK-1000 biocomposite gave foundations for a conjecture concerning the mechanism of the deposition of collagen, which is the first product of osteogenesis, on the surface of the open pores of the material in a living organism with the formation of strong chemical bonds. Implant sets for maxillofacial surgery and neurosurgery were developed on the basis of BAK-1000 biocomposite and implemented in clinical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
