The project is focused on the research of modified and new types of composite biocements with complex natural
additives, which will self-hardened as well as injectable according to the need for use and will be characterized by
high bioactivity and biocompatibility with bone tissue. In principle, the preparation of composite biocement systems
is applied in combination with complex natural additives without specific extraction of selected groups of
compounds from natural products what preserves the simplicity of preparation, cheap final form of biomaterial as
well as the "green principle" of their nature, composition and response. Composite biocements will be used in
orthopedics (treatment of bone and osteochondral defects and fractures) as well as in the reconstruction of bone
injuries in the facial part or as filling cements in dentistry
