Membran Pin Fixation

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is based on the combined use of a bone substitute, such as  a barrier membrane,  which has the dual purpose of:

• Isolating the hard tissues from the soft tissues, avoiding the infiltration of fibroblasts into the defect area.
• Immobilising the bone substitute to stabilise the graft, optimising the formation of new bone.

For optimal healing it is essential to avoid micro-movements of the biomaterial – clot - membrane system. Fixing the membrane using a mechanical system can be a suitable option to help achieve this stability and improve long-term outcomes.

The Memfix Mebrane Fixation  System is composed of titanium pins and a kit of tools that allow for fast and effective application, allowing the membrane to be fixed in a simple way and enabling proper cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation of the instruments after use.
