The present invention provides a method for making biodegradable and bioresorbable biomaterials that are also characterized by its malleability. Any desired shape can be obtained from this material, resulting from the specific composition of this invention. Therefore, the biomaterial of the present invention is very well suited to be used as in preparation of implants for dental applications, or as in the case of difficult accessible sites such as bone cavities. Composition of the biomaterial comprises an hydrophobic biopolymer, a compound having both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, bone regenerative entity that help in the bone regeneration. In addition, these biomaterials can be used as vehicle for the release of biologically active entities or drugs, such as growth factors or analgesics for example. |
