Company of the Month

Lifenova Biomedical


INASMET, a Technology Research Centre in the field of materials and founding member of Tecnalia, the biggest private Technology Corporation in Spain, in close collaboration with the medical community have invested many efforts on the study of the mechanisms behind the interaction between biomaterial surfaces and living tissues.  As a result, LIFENOVA Biomedical, S.A. was set up as a partnership between the medical & engineering community.

 

Extensive research is being carried out in different biomedical applications, where surface properties play a key role. Among then, it can already be highlighted the results obtained on dental implants, which have already led to a proprietary implant surface with outstanding and solidly tested osseointegration characteristics.

Lifenova Biomedical can already offer a new proprietary surface solution for osseointegration applications, based on:

  • A well-established and tested technology.
  • Clean contaminant-free vacuum based technology.
  • An innovative non-coating surface, compatible with current implant designs and sterilization methods.
  • A well-defined and tested surface.


A real breakthrough to accelerated osseointegration !!


It is widely admitted that implant performance is ruled mainly by its surface properties in terms of topography and physical-chemical properties. Lifenova's proprietary surface leads to an accelerated osseointegration through its:

  • Nanotopography
  • Surface physical-chemical properties

The outstanding performance of this new surface in backed by extensive "in vitro" and "in vivo" studies.
