Dental Membranes
We are the leading developer and manufacturer of collagen dental membranes for the U.S. and global dental community. We provide membranes under private brands as well as our own brand. For distribution opportunities, click Partnerships.
Our goal is to provide a portfolio of collagen based resorbable dental membranes that meet the needs of various dental indications.
The three key design parameters that we have identified in the development of the membranes are:
- Handling characteristics: Conformability vs. Stiffness
- Suture pullout strength
- Resorption time
This allows the clinician to select the most ideal membrane for the type of procedure.
