Geistlich Mucograft Seal Collagen Matrix

Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is a ready-to-use matrix with a convenient circular shape. The matrix provides an alternative to soft-tissue grafts. Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is indicated for the sealing of extraction sockets with preserved buccal walls in combination with Geistlich Bio-Oss® Collagen in ridge preservation procedures. The matrix establishes predictable dimensions for soft-tissue management.

Leading clinicians rely on Geistlich Mucograft® Seal:

• Minimal invasion.
• No harvest site morbidity.
• Creates predictable soft-tissue dimensions for later soft-tissue management and allows for flexible timing of implant placement.
• Early implant placement possible 8-10 weeks after extraction.
• Reduced surgical chair-time compared with autologous grafts.
• Faster soft-tissue wound healing compared with autologous grafts.
• Natural soft-tissue colour and texture match

Geistlich Mucograft® Seal consists of two structures: the compact structure provides stability while allowing open healing; the spongy structure supports blood clot stabilisation and ingrowth of soft-tissue cells. 

Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is easy to handle:

• No need for pre-treatment or pre-hydration.
• De-epithelialise adjacent soft-tissue margins before applying Geistlich Mucograft® Seal, thus promoting soft-tissue cell migration into the matrix.
• Position the compact structure facing outwards and the spongy structure towards the extraction socket.
• Suture using non-resorbable sutures, not glue.
• Close adaptation of the matrix to tissue borders can be accomplished by single interrupted sutures, double interrupted sutures or cross sutures.

It is available in a convenient circular form:

• Geistlich Mucograft® Seal 8 mm diameter collagen matrix
• Geistlich Mucograft® Seal 12 mm diameter collagen matrix
