  • COLLAGEN BIOMATERIAL FOR CONTAINMENT OF BIOMATERIALS
    Publication number: 20160151159
    Abstract: A biocompatible, resorbable collagen membrane containment member for a bone regenerative material, and a method of using such a containment member to regenerate a bone defect by surgically accessing the bone defect; disposing the containment member adjacent the bone defect, and thereafter injecting a bone regenerative material into the containment member.

  • Collagen Biomaterial Wedge
    Publication number: 20120135376
    Abstract: A biocompatible, resorbable collagen membrane having a wedge shape with a thick edge of relatively higher strength and rigidity and a thin edge of relatively higher deformability and elasticity, which membrane is bendable to a desired configuration and is sufficiently rigid to retain the bent configuration upon implantation at a surgical site; a method of making such a membrane, and the use of such a membrane in a “sinus lift” procedure for augmenting alveolar bone.

  • Continuous phase composite for musculoskeletal repair
    Publication number: 20060121084
    Abstract: A composite material for positioning in the anatomy to form a selected function therein. The composite may be resorbable over a selected period of time. The composite may allow for selected bone ingrowth as absorption of the composite occurs.
