Method for preparing biocompatible and biodegradable biomaterials based on collagen and granules of hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate for use in surgery, and biomaterials thus obtained
The present invention relates to a method of preparing a composite biomaterial, essentially consisting of collagen in combination with granules of hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate (HA/β-TCP), to be used in maxillofacial surgery, dentistry, aesthetic surgery and particularly in orthopedic surgery; the invention also relates to the biomaterial obtained by means of this method.
