Geistlich Biomaterials introduces a new compact size of their unique product Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen, a combination of Geistlich Bio-Oss and 10% porcine collagen. Specifically designed for narrow-defect procedures, the new 50 mg size creates a shield that maintains bone volume in buccal defects, as well as in minor vertical augmentations or in cases where filling the gap around an implant is indicated.
“Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen 50 mg was the ideal size graft material for placement between the implant and facial plate for maintaining the hard- and soft-tissue volume throughout the course of osseointegration and healing.” — Dr. Justin Kang; New Jersey, USA
“Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen 50 mg offers specific procedural solutions to everyday challenges a dental professional may face. It is an efficient and cost-effective treatment alternative.” — Ronald Frezel, Vice President of Marketing, Geistlich Biomaterials
Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen is indicated in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, including ridge preservation, minor bone augmentation, and periodontal regeneration. The collagen is absorbed after a few weeks and does not replace the barrier function of a membrane.
Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen is indicated for the following uses:
- Augmentation or reconstructive treatment of the alveolar ridge
- Filling of periodontal defects
- Filling of defects after root resection, apicoectomy, and cystectomy
- Filling of extraction sockets to enhance preservation of the alveolar ridge
- Elevation of the maxillary sinus floor
- Filling of periodontal defects in conjunction with products intended for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and guided bone regeneration (GBR)
- Filling of peri-implant defects in conjunction with products intended for GBR
