Cologenesis Cologide Collagen Sheet is composed of collagen derived from bovine source. It is a resorbable, non-friable barrier membrane obtained from highly purified type-I collagen derived from specially controlled and certified animals and is highly purified to avoid any antigenicity.Uses:
Periodontal-guided tissue regeneration procedure for infrabony defects
Oral implantology-guided bone regeneration procedures for sinus graft procedures, ridge augmentation and peri-implant defects
Augmentation procedures-horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation or augmentation of the maxillary sinus
Surgical root resection, cystectomy and other bone lesions
Product Features And Specifications:
The cologide is produced to provide an optimised degree of flexibility and rigidity combined with the most predictable resorptive process
The product comprises two distinct surface textures on either side of the membrane dense surface and a roughened porous surface. The dense top layer is in contact with soft tissue to prevent epithelial down growth and the porous roughened surface is in contact with bone and favours bone ingrowth
The cologide has a definite geometry in vivo stability and mechanical strength for use as barrier material
It has the longest in vivo stability or resorption time of 20-24 weeks, this accounts for the sustained function during the bone repair process
The cologide comes pre-packed and sterile and is intended for single use only
Directions For Use:
In all cases, standard established sterile surgical procedures must be observed
A full-thickness mucoperiosteal flap must be raised to expose the underlying bone defect
The flap should be a minimum of 5mm outside the defect on all sides
The defect must be debrided thoroughly of all granulation tissue
After adequate site preparation, the bone defect can be filled with a graft material
The sizes of the membrane should be determined using a template material adapting the membrane and cutting it with scissors to ideally extend 2-3 mm beyond the edge of the defect (s)
The membrane once wet with blood tends to adapt extremely well to the bone walls
The roughened porous texture should face the bone and the dense smooth surface face the soft tissue
The membrane should be properly immobilised as micro-movement can impair bone ingrowth
Immobilisation can be done using suturing or a fixation system. The wound should be primarily closed over without any lesions in the flap
The cologide should not be used in all contra indications customary to the use of bone grafts that can impair bone or wound healing including acute or chronic bone infection, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic high-dose steroid therapy, vascular impairment at the implant site, metabolic bone disease and alcohol are smoking abuse
