PRODUCT INFORMATION

About Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen®

Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® combines the predictability of Geistlich Bio-Oss® with the addition of 10% collagen.

  • Promotes rapid vascularization and epithelial regeneration1
  • Encourages bone regeneration resulting in good soft tissue esthetics2,3
  • Achieves volume preservation due to slow resorption4,5
  • Improves pocket depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL)6,7
  • Regenerates the complete periodontium7

UNIQUE PROPERTIES

Intentionally designed to stabilize the existing clot, yield faster bone regeneration and improve bone quality8

  • Collagen is a complex tissue important for cell growth, repair and regeneration.
  • Angiogenesis stimulates early vascularity with collagen pathways that provide vascular channels for tissue integration and bone formation.
  • Combined with Geistlich Bio-Oss®, the most trusted and proven xenogeneic bone substitute
  • Studies have shown less buccal dehiscences, increased horizontal bone volume, and improved soft-tissue healing when combining Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® + Geistlich Bio-Gide® vs DFDBA + a cross-linked membrane.9

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® a collagen plug?

No. Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® is a mixture of 90% Geistlich Bio-Oss® spongiosa granules and 10% highly purified porcine collagen in a block form. Geistlich Bio-Oss® is a natural bone mineral of bovine origin. The collagen facilitates adaptation of the Geistlich Bio-Oss® to the defect site.

Do I need a membrane when using Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® ?

The collagen in Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® does not function as a membrane. When space maintenance is required, it is recommended to use a membrane for optimal results1.

What are the recommended indications for Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® ?

Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® is recommended for the reconstruction of bone defects in the following procedures:

  • Augmentation or reconstructive treatment of the alveolar ridge.
  • Filling of periodontal defects.
  • Filling of defects after root resection, apicoectomy, and cystectomy.
  • Filling of extraction sockets to enhance preservation of the alveolar ridge.
  • Elevation of the maxillary sinus floor.
  • Filling of periodontal defects in conjunction with products intended for Guided Tissue Re-generation (GTR) and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR).
  • Filling of peri-implant defects in conjunction with products intended for Guided Bone Re-generation (GBR).

When can I use Geistlich Bio-Oss® and when Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® ?

Geistlich Bio-Oss® and Geistlich Bio-Oss Collagen® share the same indications. These products may be used interchangeably in the following procedures: 

  • Augmentation or reconstructive treatment of the alveolar ridge.
