Tableau Wax®
Biodegradable bone hemostasis materials


What is Tableau Wax
- Immediate control of bleeding from bone surfaces by functioning as a mechanical barrier
- A sterile mixture of bio-absorbable synthetic copolymers
- Soft, easy to form and apply

What are its benefits?
- No inhibition of bone healing and normal osteogenesis due to its bioabsorption
- No beeswax compositions which induce a inhibition of osteogenesis on the defect site
- To avoid the inflammation with bees wax
- Tableau wax dissolves completely from the site of application within 4 to 48 hours and then completely excreted from the body which means that there is nothing left of the hemostat to inhibit bone healing or induce inflammation

How to use
- Tableau wax is very easy to apply and requires no mixing
- Simply warm by kneading in the dry , sterile gloved hand and then apply by pressing into the bone. It should be applied to a thickness of 1 to 2 mm

Evidence from in vivo study
- Rat calvaria defect model (SD rats, Male, Total n=108)
- Immediate hemostasis was achieved within 10 sec. after application as opposed to the control (p<0.05)

- Bioabsorption: No observation on the site after 3 days of application but bone wax remained in the defect until 12 weeks (p<0.01)

- Histological analysis: bones that grow inside the defect margins of Tableau wax show osteoblast activity (black arrow) with well-mineralized bones (pink area) using H&E stain.
