#ORAMEM SUS 15x20OraMem Sustained absorbable collagen membrane is an absorbable, implantable material that is indicated for guided tissue regeneration procedures in periodontal defects to enhance regeneration of the periodontal apparatus.OraMem Sustained absorbable collagen membrane is a white, compressed, non-friable matrix fabricated from collagen derived from bovine deep flexor (Achillies) tendon. Bovine tendon is known to be one of the purest sources of Type I collagen that can be readily obtained and processed in commercial amounts. The OraMem Sustained membrane is completely absorbable, eliminating the need for the second surgical procedure required to remove a non-resorbable membrane. The collagen is currently used for general and dental surgery as absorbable hemostatic agents and absorbable wound dressings.
A bioabsorbable animal-derived collagen (e.g., porcine) intended to be used to aid in the regeneration of oral soft tissue, lost due to periodontal disease or trauma, through promotion of new blood vessels and/or by providing a temporary scaffold for tissue ingrowth; it is indicated for various oral soft tissue augmentation procedures (e.g., alveolar ridge reconstruction, localized gingival augmentation, covering of recession defects and extraction sockets). It is a pliable material which may be fixed to soft tissues with sutures; it is applied to soft tissue during periodontal flap surgery and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) surgical procedures. This is a single-use device.
