Norian CRS Fast Set Putty is a moldable biocompatible bone cement that hardens at body temperature. It is supplied in two containers: a cup containing sterile powder and a vial containing sterile solution.

When the contents are mixed together, the resulting putty is suitable for augmentation and restoration of the craniofacial skeleton. When fully cured, Fast Set Putty closely resembles the mineral part of bone, and is gradually resorbed and replaced with bone during the healing process.

Key Features & Benefits

–	Easily shaped and molded for implantation into defects and for on-lay applications
–	Hardens in a warm, wet environment reducing the need to control moisture at the operative site
–	Fast setting time (3–6 minutes) minimizes length of procedure time
–	Achieves a maximum compressive strength of approximately 30 MPa (4,350 psi) within 24 hours, which is 2 to 6 times greater than the compressive strength of cancellous bone
–	Gradually remodels to bone in the body via osteoclastic resorption and new bone formation
–	Isothermic hardening eliminates thermal injury to surrounding soft tissue

Clinical Applications

–	Cranioplasty
–	Cranial recontouring
–	Cranial flap augmentation
–	Augmentation genioplasty
–	On-lay grafting
