CollaGuide® is the unique transparent, resorbable membrane for use in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and guided bone regeneration (GBR).
CollaGuide® consists of a fibrillar collagen pad (type 1 collagen). The membrane is completely free of additional chemicals (no chemical cross–linking). These product characteristics promote healing free of inflammation and homogeneous resorption. (Wang H. Carroll W. Guided bone regeneration using bone grafts and collagen membranes. Quintessence International. 32, 2001; 504-515.)
CollaGuide®’s unique overlapping fibrillar pad structure prevents infiltration of connective tissue cells into the graft to be protected. In the course of membrane resorption, the fibrillar pad breaks up. In this fashion a matrix is created that enables fibroblast infiltration and cellular attachment.
CollaGuide® is completely resorbed within about 8 months.
CollaGuide® can be used together with all current bone regeneration and bone grafting materials.
