Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a coating composition and an anchorage component for implants having a completely or partly coated surface. The coating comprises a filling material of highly porous spherical particles having a diameter from about 10 to about 200 μm and a pore volume from about 25 to about 80% on the basis of solid calcium compounds and a resorbable binding agent (matrix).
