Proven Soft Tissue Source

Geistlich Nexo-Gide® is a native porcine collagen membrane

  • Porcine collagen has been shown to have high homology to humans as compared to other animals used to source raw materials for medical device materials1
  • Native collagen molecules and fiber structures are maintained1 and no additional materials (such as PLLA), are added

Natural Dual Surface Material

Geistlich utilizes a source material that features a smooth upper and a porous lower surface

Performance Guided Processing

Geistlich’s expertise in processing ensures biocompatibility of the implant while maintaining key natural properties

 

Processing & purification expertise

For decades, Geistlich has proven to be a world leader in processing xenograft tissue for a variety of clinical and surgical applications

  • Through our proprietary purification process, antigens, lipids and non-collagenous proteins are safely and effectively removed, reducing the likelihood of acute and chronic biological reactions1
  • For more than 30 years, Geistlich has processed and distributed porcine derived products with extensive published evidence of clinical effectiveness1

Maintaining key material properties

  • Native collagen molecules and fiber structures are maintained in the smooth upper surface, which is shown to support cell retention1
  • Native material characteristics result in a thin, pliable membrane that is easy to handle and suture even in a hydrated state1
