Bone Milling and Graft Preparation Research

Bolder et al., 2003 (Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica): Graft particle size and impaction method change how stable a cemented cup is at the time of surgery, shown in cadaver and synthetic pelvis testing.

Putzer et al., 2014 (Journal of Orthopaedic Research): Controlling the grain size of milled allograft nearly doubled graft strength after compaction, which helps prevent implant subsidence in bone impaction grafting.

Miron et al., 2012 (Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research): Compares bone harvesting techniques, including bone mills, by how many cells survive and how much growth factor the graft releases.
