Overview

We are developing innovative magnesium (Mg) implants designed to excel in both dental and orthopaedic applications.

As a resorbable material, magnesium naturally promotes osteogenesis and aids in bone healing, while simultaneously supporting angiogenesis for better vascular integration. Thanks to its bone-like mechanical properties, Mg implants minimize stress shielding and distribute loads more effectively, contributing to faster recovery and enhanced patient outcomes. Moreover, magnesium is inherently biocompatible, allowing its byproducts to be safely metabolized by the body.

In contrast to conventional metal implants that remain in the body and may require revision surgeries, our magnesium-based solutions gradually degrade over time, eliminating the need for future removal. This approach not only boosts patient comfort but also reduces surgical complications.

Bone Healing & Resorption

Magnesium Implants for Bone Healing & Natural Resorption

Promotes Osteogenesis

As a resorbable material, magnesium naturally promotes osteogenesis and aids in bone healing. Rather than acting as a permanent foreign body, the implant works alongside the body's own repair process, encouraging new bone formation at the treatment site as it gradually resorbs.

Supports Angiogenesis

Magnesium implants simultaneously support angiogenesis for better vascular integration. Improved blood vessel formation around the implant helps deliver the oxygen and nutrients that healing tissue depends on, contributing to a more complete and reliable recovery.

Bone-Like Mechanical Properties

Thanks to its bone-like mechanical properties, Mg implants minimize stress shielding and distribute loads more effectively. By behaving mechanically like natural bone, the implant avoids over-protecting the surrounding structure — supporting faster recovery and enhanced patient outcomes.

A four-stage process

How Mg Implants Work

01

Placement

The magnesium implant is placed, immediately providing bone-like structural support.

02

Bone Healing

Magnesium promotes osteogenesis and supports angiogenesis for vascular integration.

03

Gradual Resorption

The implant degrades over time, with byproducts safely metabolized by the body.

04

No Removal Surgery

Once healing is complete, no revision surgery is needed to remove the implant.

02 — Patient Outcomes

Magnesium (Mg) Implants for Comfort & Faster Recovery

A Holistic Implant Approach

In contrast to conventional metal implants that remain in the body and may require revision surgeries, our magnesium-based solutions gradually degrade over time, eliminating the need for future removal.

This approach not only boosts patient comfort but also reduces surgical complications. By removing the second procedure entirely, patients face fewer interventions and a smoother overall treatment journey.

By offering a lighter alternative that closely mimics natural bone, our Mg implants bring a holistic solution — addressing mechanical demands, biological compatibility, and patient quality of life in a single, forward-thinking implant design.

No revision surgery for removal

Magnesium implants gradually degrade over time, eliminating the need for future removal and reducing surgical complications.

Inherently biocompatible material

Magnesium is biocompatible, allowing its byproducts to be safely metabolized by the body throughout the resorption process.

03 — Performance
Load Distribution & Stress Shielding

Magnesium Implants for Effective Load Distribution

Thanks to its bone-like mechanical properties, magnesium minimizes stress shielding and distributes loads more effectively than conventional metal implants. The result is a more natural mechanical environment for the surrounding bone during healing.

By offering a lighter alternative that closely mimics natural bone, our Mg implants reduce the mechanical mismatch that can occur with stiffer permanent implants. This contributes to faster recovery and enhanced patient outcomes, addressing mechanical demands without compromising biological compatibility.

This balance of strength, weight, and resorbability makes magnesium a forward-thinking choice for both dental and orthopaedic applications — supporting bone while it heals, then safely stepping aside.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are magnesium (Mg) implants used for?

Medoja is developing magnesium (Mg) implants designed to excel in both dental and orthopaedic applications. They are intended to support bone healing while the implant is in place, then gradually resorb.

02 What does it mean that the implant is resorbable?

Unlike conventional metal implants that remain in the body permanently, magnesium-based solutions gradually degrade over time. This eliminates the need for future removal and the revision surgeries that permanent implants can require.

03 Is magnesium safe to use inside the body?

Yes. Magnesium is inherently biocompatible, allowing its byproducts to be safely metabolized by the body as the implant resorbs.

04 How do Mg implants help with bone healing?

As a resorbable material, magnesium naturally promotes osteogenesis and aids in bone healing, while simultaneously supporting angiogenesis for better vascular integration.

05 What advantage do magnesium implants have over conventional metal implants?

Thanks to bone-like mechanical properties, Mg implants minimize stress shielding and distribute loads more effectively. They are also a lighter alternative that closely mimics natural bone, contributing to faster recovery, improved comfort, and fewer surgical complications.
