Shatkin F.I.R.S.T Restore+ Pure Bovine Collagen Plug | 5 Pack

The Shatkin F.I.R.S.T. Restore+ Pure Bovine Collagen Plug is a sterile, bioabsorbable collagen protein matrix designed to serve as an occlusive or semi-occlusive wound covering. Its primary function is to maintain a clean, moist environment that supports optimal healing. Fabricated from purified, 100% bovine type I collagen, each individually packed sponge is completely sterile. Upon contact with blood, the collagen matrix induces platelet aggregation, resulting in the release of clotting and plasma factors as the platelets disintegrate. This process promotes the formation of new fibrin and reinforces the clot, while simultaneously inhibiting the ingrowth of soft tissue into the extraction site. The use of this collagen plug has been shown to reduce alveolar ridge atrophy and is entirely absorbed within 3.5 weeks. Indications include: Post-extraction tissue void filling Treatment of periodontal defects Biopsy procedures Management of alveolar ridge defects Socket grafting Repair of Schneiderian membrane tears Sinus graft containment Periodontal guided bone regeneration Soft tissue recontouring Features: Long-lasting, non-toxic, and non-pyrogenic bovine collagen wound dressing Extended longevity compared to other collagen plugs on the market Enhanced clinical outcomes and improved healing processes Effective bleeding control and stabilization of blood clots Individually packed, sterile bioabsorbable collagen protein matrix Facilitates new fibrin formation Reinforces the clot and prevents soft tissue ingrowth into extraction sites Reduces alveolar ridge atrophy
