flag Scientists develop coral-inspired 3D bone material that promotes faster healing and dissolves naturally.

flag Scientists at Swansea University have developed a new bone repair material inspired by coral, which promotes faster healing and dissolves naturally after use. flag This 3D-printed material, made of hydroxyapatite and aragonite, helps new bone grow within 2-4 weeks and dissolves within 6-12 months, leaving only healthy bone. flag Successful in preclinical studies, it could end the need for donor bones and improve bone repair procedures.
