BioMend® and Biomend Extend™
Key Benefit:
Resorbable collagen membranes that are rigid enough to create and maintain space.1
Clinical Advantages:
- Made of bovine achilles tendon
- Two different options of barrier time: 8 weeks max. (BioMend), 18 weeks max. (BioMend Extend)2
- Not side specific for convenient handling3
- Cell-occlusive – serves as barrier to prevent epithelial cell migration and allows passage of essential nutrients2
- Up to 54% more horizontal bone gain when using BioMend Extend membranes to cover bone graft during implant placement
Shown Clinically Successful In:
- Guided tissue regeneration procedures in periodontal defects2
- Periodontal surgery2, 5, 6
- Use in dental surgery procedures as a material for placement in the area of an implant, bone defect or ridge construction2, 7
- Sinus lift procedures8
Compared To A Porcine Membrane:*
- Significantly higher tensile strength in wet and dry state may be useful for guided bone regeneration techniques9
- 34 % more new bone fill and 28 % more bone-to-implant contact when using BioMend Extend Membranes for treatment of implant dehiscence defects.1
Bone Grafting is a common procedure used to prepare a site for dental implant placement in an area where teeth have been loss.
