Bone Vac
autologous bone dust collector

Put bone dust to work for you, quickly and easily. Using your existing drill and surgical suction, the Bone Vac collects drilled bone dust through existing surgical suction. That arms you with the regenerative benefits of gold standard, autologous bone, delivered with a simplicity and price your surgical and administrative teams will like.

Remains viable after drilling

“The bone shavings appear to remain viable after burring, as there was no microscopic evidence of damage to the cells.”5

“Osteocytes are able to remain viable after drilling.”2

“Bone dust samples…were sent to our local pathology lab where the presence of viable osteocytes was confirmed.”4
