Allograft vs Xenograft vs Alloplast in Dentistry

Understand what each graft category means, then verify the exact product, processing, particle size, volume, pack, and IFU before ordering.

SKU-safe data standard. These pages do not rename products, rewrite SKUs, create variants, or alter pack quantities. A value appears only when verified on the live Whitecap page or a linked manufacturer resource. Unknown MPN/GTIN values are marked for label/IFU verification.

Category definitions

Allograft — human donor

Properties depend on donor screening, mineralization, cortical/cancellous composition, and processing. Do not merge mineralized and demineralized SKUs.

Xenograft — animal derived

The Bio-Oss pages identify a bovine-derived mineral matrix with separate small and large particle products.

Alloplast — synthetic

CERASORB M is β-TCP; Osbone is hydroxyapatite. These are distinct materials and remain distinct products.

Verification sequence

1. Label and IFU

Confirm material/source, indication, contraindications, resorbable status and current IFU URL.

2. Exact record

Match Brand, MPN/GTIN or exact Whitecap reference, particle size, volume, and pack quantity.

3. Economics

Compare price per unit only after price and exact usable volume or count are verified.

4. Related products

Review membrane and suture separately by exact SKU, size, pack, and procedure category.
