Geistlich Bio Gide (Bilayer Collagen Membrane)

Geistlich Bio-Gide is a biocompatible, sterile resorbable bilayer collagen membrane for guided tissue and bone regeneration. The dense surface facing the soft tissue— will prevent the ingrowth of fibrous tissue into the bone defect. 

Geistlich Bio-Gide is a unique bilayer collagen membrane made of porcine collagen without any artificial cross-linking which closely resembles human collagen. The natural bilayer structure promotes reliable bone regeneration and optimal tissue integration on account of an appropriate barrier duration. The soft-tissue heals without scarring and largely without complications.

It facilitates bone regeneration and optimal tissue integration. The natural collagen structure of Geistlich Bio-Gide permits prompt and homogeneous vascularization and so brings about optimal tissue integration and wound stabilization.

The smooth side of Geistlich Bio-Gide prevents soft tissue from growing into the defect and serves as a scaffold for the attachment of fibroblasts. The rough, open-pored layer side of Geistlich Bio-Gide serves as a framework for bone cells and blood vessels.

Geistlich Bio-Gide is used in combination with a bone substitute such as Geistlich Bio-Oss or Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen. Guided Bone Regeneration with Geistlich Bio-Oss and Geistlich Bio-Gide yield reliable results in esthetic terms. Due to the contour augmentation the facial bone wall was able to be preserved in 95% of patients over a period lasting from 5 to 9 years.
