What Does BCP Stand For?

BCP stands for Biphasic Calcium Phosphate

BCP, or Biphasic Calcium Phosphate, is a bioceramic material composed of a combination of hydroxyapatite (HA) and beta-tricalcium phosphate (?-TCP). This dual-phase structure is designed to optimize osteoconductivity and bioactivity, making BCP an effective scaffold for bone regeneration and repair. BCP's properties facilitate favorable interactions with bone cells, promoting new bone formation while gradually resorbing over time. It is widely used in dental and orthopedic applications for implants, grafts, and other regenerative procedures.
