Abstract
A shaped particle for use in an array of interlocking particles to repair, replace, improve or augment a bone deficiency is provided.

In a preferred embodiment, the bone material is demineralized bone material. In some embodiments, the particle is suspended in a material that facilitates application of the particle to bone, and the material may contain biological factors that augment bone growth or prevent infection.
