Geistlich - Model Bio-Gide -Collagen Membrane
User Benefits: Geistlich Bio-Gide® is a collagen membrane for reliable bone regeneration and optimal tissue integration.1-3. The natural collagen structure of Geistlich Bio-Gide® permits prompt and homogeneous vascularization and so brings about optimal tissue integration and wound stabilization.5 The smooth side of Geistlich Bio-Gide® prevents soft tissue from growing into the defect and serves as a scaffold for the attachment of fibroblasts. 1,4-7 The rough, open-pored layer side of Geistlich Bio-Gide® serves as a framework for bone cells and blood vessels. 1,9. Geistlich Bio-Gide® is used in combination with a bone substitute such as Geistlich Bio-Oss® or Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen.
