Geistlich Bio-Gide® is the leading collagen membrane in North America for oral tissue regeneration. It is used in combination with a bone substitute such as Geistlich Bio-Oss® or Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen®. Geistlich Bio-Gide® integrates with surrounding tissues to protect the initial coagulum. With its unique bilayer structure, Geistlich Bio-Gide® not only prevents ingrowth of soft tissue into the augmented site, but then optimally degrades to allow for the cascade of biologic events leading to regeneration.

Geistlich Bio-Gide® is naturally resorbable therefore a second surgery for removal of the membrane is not required. As it simplifies the surgical technique, and exhibits excellent wound healing properties, Geistlich Bio-Gide® has fundamentally changed dental bone regeneration.

Leading clinicians rely on Geistlich Bio-Gide® for:

• Excellent tissue integration and undisturbed bone regeneration compared to using a bone substitute alone
• Native collagen structure results in fewer dehiscences compared with other available membranes
• Fully resorbable, no second surgery required for membrane removal
• Predictable outcomes in the esthetic zone
• Long-term data demonstrates predictable results in Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) treatments when Geistlich Bio-Gide® is used in combination with Geistlich Bio-Oss®

Indications:

• Augmentation around implants placed in immediate and delayed extraction sockets
• Localized ridge augmentation for later implantation
• Alveolar ridge reconstruction for prosthetic treatment
• Filling of bone defects after root resection, cystectomy, removal of retained teeth
• GBR in dehiscence defects; and GTR procedures in periodontal defects

Application of Geistlich Bio-Gide® is easy:

• Measure the defect with a periodontal probe
• Trim the dry collagen membrane to the desired shape and size
• Apply dry with the rough side facing the defect
• Moisten the membrane in situ with blood from the defect

Geistlich Bio-Gide® is available in three convenient sizes:

• 13 x 25 mm
• 25 x 25 mm
