Abstract: Implantable devices having antibacterial activity for preventing periprosthetic infections and for improving osteointegration capacity are provided. Methods for making and using such devices are also provided.

Abstract: Compositions for filling tissue defects, such as defects due to loss of soft tissue or resorption of bone tissue around natural teeth (periodontal defects) or implant screws (peri-implant defects), to increase the size of the alveolar ridge, to fill extraction sites and to raise the maxillary sinus are provided. In particular, the invention provides filler materials for dental use, where the material includes a collagen gel cross-linked with polyphenols in a ceramic support matrix. Methods of making and using such compositions are also provided.
