Geistlich Bio-Gide is a biocompatible, sterile resorbable bilayer collagen membrane for guided tissue and bone regeneration. The dense surface—facing the soft tissue— will prevent the ingrowth of fibrous tissue into the bone defect.
Geistlich Bio-Gide is a unique bilayer collagen membrane made of porcine collagen without any artificial cross-linking which closely resembles human collagen. The natural bilayer structure promotes reliable bone regeneration and optimal tissue integration on account of an appropriate barrier duration. The soft-tissue heals without scarring and largely without complications.
Geistlich Bio-Gide facilitates bone regeneration and optimal tissue integration. The natural collagen structure of Geistlich Bio-Gide permits prompt and homogeneous vascularization and so brings about optimal tissue integration and wound stabilization.
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. The rough, open-pored layer side of Geistlich Bio-Gide serves as a framework for bone cells and blood vessels.
Geistlich Bio-Gide is used in combination with a bone substitute such as Geistlich Bio-Oss or Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen. Guided Bone Regeneration with Geistlich Bio-Oss and Geistlich Bio-Gide yield reliable results in esthetic terms. Due to the contour augmentation the facial bone wall was able to be preserved in 95% of patients over a period lasting from 5 to 9 years.
COMPRESSED
Geistlich Bio-Gide Compressed is the twin to Geistlich Bio-Gide, the leading collagen membrane for oral tissue regeneration. In comparison to the market leader, Geistlich Bio-Gide Compressed offers a smoother surface, a firmer feel and is easier to cut. Therefore it is especially suitable for dentists who would like alternative handling properties. Geistlich Bio-Gide Compressed should be used in combination with a space-creating bone graft material such as autologous bone, Geistlich Bio-Oss or Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen. Geistlich Bio-Gide Compressed is naturally resorbable and does not have to be removed in a second surgery. Thus it simplifies the surgical procedure making it safer for your patients.
