The new membranes are the first in a planned improvement to the entire line of Cytoplast® titanium-reinforced membranes. Clinicians designed the new membranes to include a broader titanium frame, as well as pilot holes to create more secure membrane stabilization.
The Ti-250 XL measures 30 mm x 40 mm and is ideal for grafting very large bony defects, especially vertical and horizontal ridge augmentation. Measuring 17 mm x 25 mm, the Ti-250 Buccal is designed for use in large buccal defects.
“We’ve identified these two sizes during an on-going effort to provide surgeons with products that best fit their needs and through market research which identified a demand for these specific membrane sizes,” said company president Shane Shuttlesworth.
The PTFE membrane’s titanium frame increases rigidity and allows for the creation and preservation of space when grafting. Osteogenics Biomedical’s patented Regentex® surface helps stabilize the membrane and the soft tissue flap.
The membranes will be available for purchase at the Academy of Osseointegration Annual Meeting. Nationwide sales begin March 2, 2009.
