Abstract
A malleable demineralized bone composition consists of cortical bone made from a first portion and a second portion. The first portion of cortical bone is made from cut pieces freeze dried then ground into particles and demineralized then freeze-dried. The second portion of cortical bone is shaved into shavings. The shavings are long thin strips subjected to freeze-drying. The freeze-dried shavings are ground and demineralized and then freeze-dried. A volume of the second portion is placed in a solution of sterile water to create a mixture, the water volume being twice the second portion, the mixture is autoclaved under heat and pressure to form a gelatin, and the first portion is mixed with the gelatin to form a malleable putty or paste.
