Meet nanOss Strata: The Bone Graft That Wants to be Bone

Orthopedic surgeons have no shortage of bone graft options. Shelves are stacked, reps are enthusiastic, and every product description seems to include the phrase “designed to mimic natural bone.”

But every once in a while, something launches that actually earns a second look in the OR — specifically, nanOss Strata, Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc.’s newest synthetic bone graft.

Adding a Carbon Link to Hydroxyapatite

Most synthetics lean on traditional hydroxyapatite, the dependable workhorse of bone substitutes. But HA isn’t exactly in a hurry to resorb, remodel, or make friends with the neighborhood osteoclasts.

Strata switches things up with hydroxycarbonapatite (HCA) — a more soluble, more bioactive version that plays nicer with the healing process.

Higher solubility means:

• More remodeling
• Better integration
• And a graft that’s a bit more eager to join the skeleton’s permanent staff

Add in a nanocrystalline structure that closely resembles human bone and boosts surface area, and you get improved osteoconductivity and better stimulation of the patient’s own cellular workforce.

In other words, Strata isn’t just sitting there — it’s trying to do something useful.

Two Shapes, One Goal: Make Your Life Easier

Xtant seems to have asked surgeons what they actually want, because Strata comes in formats that fit real-world workflows:

• Compression-resistant strips: Ideal when you need structural integrity without wrestling the material into place.
• Prehydrated, moldable grafts: Satisfying to shape, highly absorbent, and ready to pack into whatever irregular bony landscape the case presents.

Both are sterile, both are easy to handle, and neither requires the patience of a saint to prepare.

What the Boss Says

Sean Browne, Xtant’s President and CEO, summed it up nicely: “By building on the clinical success of our nanOss products, Strata demonstrates our commitment to innovation…and helps surgeons improve the outcomes of their patients.”

Meaning? Surgeons liked nanOss, so Xtant doubled down.

Ready for Prime Time

nanOss Strata is already shipping through Xtant’s national distribution network, which means you can get your hands on it without waiting for the next conference or hunting down your rep between cases.
