What Curasan does

Curasan Inc. is the US-Canadian commercial subsidiary of German medical technology company curasan AG, founded in 1988 and headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, with a North American regional headquarters in Wake Forest, North Carolina. The company develops, manufactures, and distributes biomaterials for bone and tissue regeneration across two principal verticals: dental biomaterials and orthobiologics. Its product portfolio spans dental bone graft substitutes (CERASORB M, CERASORB Bioactive, OSBONE hydroxyapatite, ALLOSORB allograft), resorbable membranes (EPI-GUIDE PLA membrane, CollaGuide), adjunct products (OsteoSelect DBM Putty, OsteoWrap, HealiAid wound dressing), and orthobiologic solutions for spine and orthopedic surgery (CERACELL Ortho Foam, CERASORB M as a graft extender).

The underlying technology is built on phase-pure (>99%) beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) with interconnected multi-porosity for predictable osteoclast-mediated resorption, combined with collagen matrices and a proprietary D,D-L,L-polylactic acid three-layer membrane architecture providing extended barrier function (approximately 20 weeks) for guided tissue and bone regeneration. CERACELL Ortho Foam adds silicate (4%) to silicated β-TCP embedded in porcine collagen foam to promote osteointegration in posterolateral fusion procedures, where a 13-patient study reported 100% fusion success at 12-month follow-up.

Curasan monetizes through one-time medical device sales into two separate authorized-distributor networks (dental and orthopedic) in the US and Canada, with quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed list prices. End customers are primarily dental professionals (dentists, oral surgeons, periodontists, implantologists) and orthopedic/spine surgeons needing graft substitutes, graft extenders, and resorbable membranes. The company markets through its website, distributor portals, clinical case study books, and a professional B2B content program emphasizing 25+ years of clinical heritage.

Core offering

Curasan develops, manufactures, and distributes biosynthetic bone graft substitutes, resorbable polymer membranes, collagen-based matrices, and demineralized bone matrix (DBM) products for bone and tissue regeneration. The portfolio is organized into two product lines — Dental Biomaterials (e.g., CERASORB M, CERASORB Bioactive, EPI-GUIDE, CollaGuide) and Orthobiologics (e.g., OSBONE, ALLOSORB, OsteoSelect DBM Putty, OsteoWrap, HealiAid, CERACELL Ortho Foam) — and is sold to licensed dental and orthopedic professionals through a distributor network across the US and Canada.

Product overview

Curasan is a medical technology company specializing in bone and tissue regeneration solutions, operating through two main product portfolios: Dental Biomaterials and Orthobiologics. The Dental Biomaterials portfolio includes CERASORB® family products (CERASORB® Bioactive, CERASORB® M), ALLOSORB® allograft, OSBONE® synthetic hydroxyapatite, EPI-GUIDE® resorbable PLA membrane, CollaGuide® collagen membrane, OsteoSelect® DBM Putty, OsteoWrap®, and HealiAid® wound dressing. The Orthobiologics portfolio features CERACELL® Ortho Foam (silicated β-TCP collagen foam) and CERASORB® M for orthopedic and spine applications. Together, these products provide comprehensive solutions for bone regeneration across dental, orthopedic, spine, and traumatology procedures.
