Definitions
- the present invention relates to a crosslinkable polymer composition
- a crosslinkable polymer composition comprising at least one calcium phosphate, at least one biocompatible and biodegradable organic polymer or one of its precursors, and core/shell particles of Zn/ZnO, a biomaterial capable of being obtained by photopolymerization of such a crosslinkable polymer composition, a process for preparing such a composition and such a biomaterial, as well as the use of such a biomaterial for various applications in the field of health.
- the surgical procedure is quite long and painful for the patient because it is carried out on two different operating sites; and a period of 4 to 6 months Waiting time is usually necessary before placing the implant so that the graft fuses to the recipient bone.
- patients are required to follow antibiotic treatment to prevent infections.
- oral infections can present a real health risk, particularly for patients with other pathologies such as autoimmune diseases or diabetes.
- the volume of bone graft available in the oral cavity is limited and may be insufficient for requirements.
- Another major disadvantage of autogenous bone grafting is its more or less significant long-term resorption. Resorption is particularly pronounced for cancellous bone, varying between 12 and 60% (1 -5 years) after implant placement.
- Allogenic and xenogenic biomaterials require potential donors and numerous processing and/or packaging steps before use. Alloplastic biomaterials can also serve as bone substitutes in bone fillings and reconstructions. Their availability is unlimited, there is no need to resort to a bone bank, and they present no risk of transmission of pathogens.
- Alloplastic materials are currently used in dentistry: tricalcium phosphates, calcium carbonates, synthetic hydroxyapatites, two-phase ceramics, composite materials, and bioglasses. Alloplastic materials must be biocompatible, bioactive, osteoconductive and may or may not be resorbable.
- hydroxyapatite is often used as an implant in the artificial replacement of hard tissues in dental surgery. Its structural properties, such as its size and morphology, differ depending on the synthesis method used. Hydroxyapatite is particularly used in the form of nanoparticles in the transport of genes and proteins and for artificial bone regrowth due to its very high absorption capacity and its binding affinity with versatile molecules. However, it is a compound limited in terms of mechanical strength, breaking strength and fatigue resistance.

- the hybrid material is prepared as follows: a polycaprolactone structure sized to receive a metal implant is prepared by 3D printing, then particles of polycaprolactone, hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, poly(ethylene oxide) and sodium chloride are mixed, the resulting mixture is introduced into the structure, the whole is then heated in an oven for 10 minutes at 80°C, then washed in deionized water to remove the poly(ethylene oxide) and sodium chloride.
- the hybrid material obtained is porous and has osteoconductive properties. It is described as being able to regenerate alveolar bone during dental implant installation. However, this material does not eliminate the risk of oral infection. Furthermore, its mechanical properties remain weak.
- the aim of the present invention is therefore to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art, and in particular to provide a biocompatible and biodegradable biomaterial having good mechanical and antibacterial properties, and which can easily adapt to dental and/or maxillary morphology. -facial of a patient, while guaranteeing good osteoconductive and resorbability properties.

- the biomaterial can then be used as a bone substitute for dental implant placement in a single operation with a simpler technique for the practitioner and therefore more reliable for the patient.
- osteoconduction means the ability of a biomaterial to serve as a matrix to which the surrounding vascular and bone cells can adhere, so that they can migrate to the recipient site, colonize it, revascularize it and synthesize new bone matrix.
