Product Summary:

About DentoGen
DentoGen is an FDA approved medical grade calcium sulfate hemihydrate for bone regeneration in dental applications, including dental implants. It can also be used in combination with dental implants to improve their osseointegratation.

Calcium sulfate has a 110 years long history of use as a bone regeneration material. It has been extensively studied for bone regeneration purposes in many animal models and human clinical studies in the United States and Europe.

DentoGen, when implanted in the body, completely resorbs and leaves behind a calcium phosphate based osteoconductive scaffold that enhances bone regeneration.

Indications
DentoGen is allowed for marketing by US FDA as a bone graft by itself, in combination with other bone graft materials and as a barrier membrane. In other words, you can graft with any material of choice and then layer DentoGen over the graft instead of having to fit a membrane fragment. It makes covering the graft much easier. In fact, after covering the graft site with DentoGen, primary closure is not required. This makes for an easier and more cost effective bone grafting procedure.

Example Uses for Dental Implants

Dehiscence and fenestrations: reconstruct the bone continuity with DentoGen. Allow it to harden using the FAST SET liquid and suture.

Mini sinus lifting: before inserting the implant, fill the bone area with DentoGen, pressing with an appropriate instrument and pushing the material so that the membrane is raised. Then insert the implant.

Great sinus lifting: DentoGen can be used as a single implant material or as a matrix mixed with autologous or heterologous bone.

Fresh Socket Filling around dental implants: DentoGen can be used post-extraction as described above with immediate placement of an endosseous implant.

Other Example Uses of Dentogen

Oral Surgery
Post-extraction: To help maintain height and width of alveolar bone, apply an initial layer of DentoGen and compress it with gauze. Hemostasis will thus be obtained. Continue filling in layers, each time compressing the material with sterile gauze. The alveolus should be filled with slight excess and the soft tissue margins should be approximated with sutures over the hardened DentoGen.

Periodontics
Infra-osseous defects: After periodontal treatment, fill the defect(s) with DentoGen, pressing on the root surface. In furcations, DentoGen can be used alone or under membranes.

Endodontics

Apicoectomy: following root resection, apply a layer of DentoGen™ into the crypt and compress with gauze, thus obtaining hemostasis. Prepare the root end cavity and place the retrograde filling. Then fill the crypt with DentoGen™, placing in layers and in slight excess. Wet the final layer with FAST SET liquid in order to allow for rapid hardening, and then suture.

Root perforations: for intra-coronal treatment, use DentoGen™ as a matrix. Mix DentoGen™ to a creamy consistency and introduce to the pulp chamber. Push it through the perforation into the bone lesion, until the latter is completely filled. Clean the cavity with a small sponge soaked in REGULAR SET liquid; wait until the DentoGen™ has hardened. Remove DentoGen™ from the dentinal walls of the perforation with a rose miller, then close the perforation with fast setting super-EBA or a resin bonding technique.

Open apices: plug the apical third of the canal with DentoGen™, then remove the material until 1 mm from the radiographic apex. Fill the canal with your chosen technique.
