- A 14mm x 26mm non-resorbable structural barrier embedded with a highly malleable titanium skeleton designed to ensure reliable space maintenance during Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures
Uses
- Buccal Wall Reconstructions:
- Rebuilds missing or highly degraded outer cortical bone plates following a traumatic extraction
- Large Socket Preservation:
- Seals large molar sites or multiple adjacent anterior teeth where side-wall protection is critical
- Horizontal Ridge Augmentation:
- Forms a stiff outer barrier to expand thin alveolar ridges laterally before implant placement
- Extensive Peri-Implant Voids:
- Caps massive bone recession, fenestration window defects, or exposed dental implant threads
Features
- Malleable Titanium Core:
- A pure, medical-grade titanium mesh framework is sandwiched inside a protective double layer of ePTFE thin-film matrix
- Anterior Single Form Factor:
- Sized at precisely 14mm x 24mm to accommodate standard anterior single-tooth voids with ideal overlap margins
- Double-Sided "Strawberry Field" Texturing:
- Features highly distinct macro-textured dimples on both faces to lock firmly against the native bone graft underneath and the gum flap above
- Inert, Non-Resorbable Profile:
- Composed entirely of high-purity synthetic polymers and metal that do not degrade, ensuring permanent space maintenance until clinical retrieval
- Calibrated Micro-Porosity:
- Designed with passive sub-micron pores that block cellular or bacterial invasion while permitting fluid dynamics
Benefits
- Rigid Structural Support:
- The internal titanium skeleton provides the membrane with superior physical memory. It allows surgeons to dome or "tent" the material over a bone defect, preventing it from collapsing under tight suturing or pressure from moving lips and facial muscles
- Exceptional Graft Implantation Stability:
- The dual-sided texturing maximizes traction, keeping loose bone particulate grafts firmly in place and eliminating healing micro-movements that ruin bone formation
- Bacterial and Cellular Isolation:
- Creates a strict biological seal that prevents fast-moving gingival soft tissue cells and oral bacteria from invading the bone graft cavity
- Optimized Passive Diffusion:
- Allows interstitial fluids, life-giving nutrients, and oxygen to flow back and forth through the barrier, accelerating early tissue recovery
- Clean Single-Piece Removal:
- Because it retains full mechanical strength and does not dissolve or fragment over time, it can be lifted out cleanly as a single, unified sheet during secondary uncoverings
