OpenTex® Non-Resorbable PTFE Membrane is a pure medical-grade
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sheet with inert biological features and
predictable barrier effect.
Non-resorbable membrane is sustainable for surgical procedure with
no primary closure. OpenTex® Membrane is ideal for space-making
feature providing enough space for host cells to adhere to grafting
materials. OpenTex® is supplied sterile for single use only and available
in various sizes.
Non-Resorbable PTFE membrane
OpenTex® is designed to function as a physical barrier to avoid gingival cell invasion, thus providing a favorable environment for neovascularization and
bone derived cells to repopulate and repair the defect.
Since space-making is critical to this procedure, the membrane is sufficiently stiff to prevent spontaneous collapse but supple enough to conform easily to
tissue contours.
1st is considered the gold standard in barrier membranes.
d-PTFE membrane
With its microporosity, OpenTex is considered
to be a novel barrier membrane. It is especially suitable for bone regeneration and soft tissue management of an extraction socket after immediate implant placement.
OpenTex® Main Features
Non-Resorbable
• 100% medical grade PTFE membrane.
• Biologically inert and chemically non-reactive.
• Healing procedure is not interfered with membrane absorption.
Microporous
• Promote the gingival tissue attachment.
• Enhances ease in the interstitial fluid circulation.
Minimally Invsaive
• Rapid recovery of soft tissue.
• Primary Closure is not necessary.
• Minimum flap reflection or dissection.
Withstands Exposure
• Protect the tissue regeneration site.
• Regenerated underlying tissue can be evaluated.
• Provide a proper environment for the growth of blood vessel and osteogenic cells.
Indications
- Simultaneous use of GBR membrane and implants.
- Augmentation around implant placed in immediate extraction sites or delayed extraction socket
- Filling of bone defects after root resection, removal of cysts, and removal of retained teeth.
