Product Overview
Surgical Specialties - 903 - Bone Wax
Description:

It is commonly used in orthopedic, neurosurgical, and dental surgeries to provide mechanical hemostasis by tamponading oozing bone edges. The wax is easy to mold and apply, ensuring quick and effective bleeding control without interfering with bone healing.
Features:
- Sterile and ready for immediate use
- Soft, malleable consistency for easy application
- Adheres well to bone surfaces for effective hemostasis
- Non-toxic and biocompatible
- Does not promote infection or interfere with bone regeneration
Specifications:
- Material: Beeswax-based formulation
- Sterility: Individually packaged and sterilized
- Size: Available in standard 2.5g sticks
- Shelf Life: Long-term stability when stored properly
- Compatibility: Safe for use with other surgical materials
Use Suggestion:
Apply a small amount of Bone Wax directly to the bleeding bone surface and press gently to seal the area. Use sparingly to avoid excess buildup, as large quantities may delay bone healing. Ideal for procedures such as spinal fusions, craniotomies, and orthopedic repairs where bone hemostasis is required.
