Surgitime.ptfe, are non-resorbable polytetrafluoroethylene membranes, of synthetic origin and 100% biocompatible.

Considered as mechanical barriers for guided tissue regeneration RTG are used in regenerative techniques both in the medical and dental fields, as their function is to prevent the migration of epithelial and connective tissue cells, which would cause bone growth inhibition, promoting adequate space for the formation of a natural fibrin framework, precursor of bone tissue. The membrane prevents tissue competition between the connective tissue and the bone, and is intended to isolate the bone grafts, favoring tissue regeneration.
Typical microscopic images of POREX Microporous PTFE. Structure differences are apparent as absent are the nodes and fribules and visible is a network of well-controlled particles all bonded to their neighbors. This structure provides a very robust 3 dimensional membrane that experiences very little change with temperature or pressure, and requires no supporting layers.
indications
