OssGuide is recommended for: - Simultaneous use of GBR-membrane (OssGuide) and implants; - Augmentation around implants placed in immediate extraction sockets; - Augmentation around implants placed in delayed extraction sockets; - Localized ridge augmentation for later implantation; - Alveolar ridge reconstruction for prosthetic treatment; - Aid regeneration of bone defects after root resection, cystectomy, removal of retained teeth; - Guided bone regeneration in dehiscence defects

OssGuide (Absorbable collagen membrane) is made of purified collagen without further cross-linking or chemical treatment. The collagen is extracted from veterinary certified pigs and is carefully purified to avoid antigenic reactions. The OssGuide is a collagen membrane obtained by a standardized controlled manufacturing process. The OssGuide has a porous and fibrous microstructure that prevents the ingrowth of fibrous tissue into the bone defect. OssGuide functions as a barrier when applied between bone graft material and soft tissue. The membrane serves as a bioresorbable scaffold that is eventually remodeled, resorbed, and replaced by host tissue. OssGuide is substantially resorbed within 24 weeks after implantation.
