Buccal tissue matrix Mucograft®

collagen

Geistlich Mucograft® is a collagen matrix designed specifically for soft-tissue regeneration in the oral cavity1. It is indicated for gaining keratinized tissue2,3,4 and for recession coverage5,6. Geistlich Mucograft® provides an alternative to autologous soft-tissue grafts2,4,5,6. Painful harvesting of tissue is avoided, benefiting patients and clinicians alike. Leading clinicians rely on Geistlich Mucograft®: No harvest-site morbidity2,3,5-7. Less pain compared with autologous grafts2,4. Reduced surgical chair-time compared with autologous grafts2-6. Natural soft-tissue colour and texture match5,8,9. Early vascularization and good soft-tissue ingrowth10,11. Good wound healing, also in open situations2. Easy handling2 and application in a dry state. Geistlich Mucograft® consists of two structures: the compact structure provides stability while allowing open healing; the spongy structure supports blood clot stabilization and ingrowth of soft-tissue cells Application Geistlich Mucograft® is easy to handle compared with autologous soft-tissue grafts1: Unlimited availability and consistent quality. No need for pre-treatment or pre-hydration. Measure the defect and trim the matrix to the required shape. Apply the dry Geistlich Mucograft® to the defect; it will moisten rapidly due to marked hydrophilicity. Position the compact structure facing outwards and the spongy structure towards the bone or periosteum. Soaked matrix adapts spontaneously to contours and adheres well to defect.
