- A multi-layer, non-resorbable barrier membrane featuring a pure titanium framework enclosed within two layers of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), measuring 32mm x 40mm featuring a pure titanium framework enclosed within two layers of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE)
Uses
- Severe Alveolar Ridge Augmentation:
- Reconstructing broad horizontal or vertical bony defects across multiple tooth segments
- Massive Defects Following Trauma or Cystectomies:
- Containing vast volume grafts in deep osseous cavities
- Advanced Multi-Implant GBR:
- Covering multi-unit implant sites where major fenestration or dehiscence requires extensive bone bulk
- Periodontal Arch Reconstruction:
- Rebuilding complex, multi-wall defects spanning large areas of the maxillary or mandibular arch
Features
- Enclosed Pure Titanium Frame:
- Features an internal, implant-grade titanium skeleton that delivers rigid shape and space maintenance, this tents up the tissue flap, creating an isolated chamber that protects the underlying graft from mechanical collapsing pressures
- Macro-Perforated Holes:
- Engineered with physical macro-perforations through the ePTFE layers, this design facilitates direct neovascularization across the barrier, allowing blood capillaries to grow directly from the overlying periosteum into the bone graft
- Non-Resorbable Biocompatible ePTFE:
- Constructed from dual layers of medical-grade ePTFE that block bacteria penetration and keep fast-moving gingival soft tissue cells out of the slow-healing bone defect
- "Strawberry Field" Textured Surface:
- Features a specialized double-sided micro-texture that increases traction and friction against host tissues. This aids the clinician in smooth chairside positioning and encourages excellent soft-tissue flap adherence
Benefits
- Exceptional Malleability & Zero Recoil:
- The integrated titanium skeleton allows the clinician to bend, curve, and mold the membrane into a rigid dome shape over scissors-trimmed contours. Once adapted, it holds its exact 3D form with zero spring-back, minimizing graft migration
- Accelerated Angiogenesis:
- By allowing blood vessels to permeate directly through the perforations rather than forcing them to travel only from the peripheral margins, the macro-holes accelerate nutrient delivery and bone-derived cell repopulation
- Extended Implantation Stability:
- The membrane can be safely submerged under the muco-periosteum for 1 to 6 months. It maintains predictable, heavy-duty structural volume for as long as needed before being removed in a secondary procedure
- Secure Margins Adaptation:
- The 32mm x 40mm sheet can be cleanly trimmed with surgical scissors without leaving sharp edges. This allows the clinician to extend the barrier 3mm past the defect borders for comprehensive margin isolation
