Easy to Use and Clinically Versatile

  • Customizable Flexibility: Choose between two levels of drapability to suit your specific surgical procedure
  • Essential for GBR: As Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) becomes a standard part of implant therapy, these resorbable membranes provide a reliable, modern solution
  • Proven Outcomes: Beyond containing the graft and blocking soft-tissue invasion, using these membranes is clinically proven to improve the overall success of GBR procedures

Features

  • Long-lasting yet fully absorbable membrane The OsseoGuard membrane is designed for optimal strength, absorption and ease of handling. It is made from high-purity Type I collagen, derived from bovine Achilles tendon.
  • Flexibility meets strength The OsseoGuard Flex membrane is designed for an ideal balance of strength, drapability, absorbency and ease of handling. It is made from high-purity Type I and Type III collagen derived from intact bovine hide.

Benefits

      • Optimal mechanical strength that supports suturing and ensures excellent handling characteristics
      • High suture pull-out strength, significantly greater than the BioMend membrane, thanks to its unique fibrous structure
      • Extended resorption profile (6–9 months), suitable for the healing time required in many Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures
      • Ideal balance between stability during the healing phase and complete bioresorption
      • Designed for predictable tissue support in demanding clinical protocols
      • Excellent drapability, allowing for easy adaptation and coverage of bone defects
      • Extended resorption profile (6–9 months), suitable for the healing time required in many Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures
      • Ability to support soft tissue healing, even when left exposed in posterior extraction sites
      • Ideal combination of flexibility and mechanical stability for demanding clinical cases
      • Optimized handling behavior for easier placement and adaptation to the surgical site

Handling & Indications

In which clinical cases is the use of the OsseoGuard membrane indicated?

The OsseoGuard membrane is slightly more rigid, with easy handling for greater space maintenance.

The recommended indications for the use of OsseoGuard are as follows:

  • Localized ridge defects/future socket preparation for implant placement
  • Bony defects around implants
  • Extraction sockets
  • Bone regeneration after root extraction
  • Coverage of the sinus window and repair of sinus membrane perforations.

What makes the OsseoGuard Flex easier to handle and in which clinical cases is its application indicated?

The OsseoGuard Flex membrane has fewer external collagen cross-links in its design, which makes it easier to handle.

The recommended indications for OsseoGuard Flex are as follows:

  • Bony defects around implants, immediate or delayed placement in extraction sockets
  • Localized ridge defects
  • Ridge reconstruction
  • Regeneration of bone lesions
  • Bone Regeneration in Areas with Bone Plate Loss
  • Guided bone regeneration in periodontal defects
