With PerioGlas, see rapid, predictable and long lasting bone regeneration in your patients. Also see the other beneficial clinical properties of PerioGlas :
  •    Improves periodontal attachment^1,5,7
  •    Is hemostatic-reduces bleeding^1,2,4,5
  •    Is completely biocompatibel-no risk of rejection⁶
  •    Is 1000 % synthetic-no risk of viral transfer⁶

FEEL THE DIFFERENCE
Feel the difference when working with PerioGlas, because no other bone graft material is easier to work with. It mixes easily in seconds; it adheres to instruments fro easy insertion; and it contours easily to the shape of the defects. Its negatively charged particles adhere to the defect site, so it does not float out, and you can even suction adjacent to the graft site!^2,4

Predictable Bone Regeneration
Case Study : Periodontal Defect
	Patient presents with severe periodontitis of mandibular second premolar. Pocket depth is 9mm
	The periodontal osseous defect is debrided and decorticated prior to PerioGlas placement. This infrabony lesion presents as a two-or three-wall defect.
	PerioGlas is placed into the defect with minimal bleeding noted. Papilla retention is necessary for primary closure.
	At 24 months post-operative with no gingival bleeding on probing, pocket depth is reduced to 3mm.

Thanks to Dr. Sam Low, Associate Dean & Professor of Periodontology, University Of Florida College of Dentistry, for this case and the one above.

PerioGlas® eliminates the need for the second surgical site needed with autografting, reducing infection risk and patient discomfort. It also saves operating room time and cost. 

PerioGlas® generates new bone just as fast as demineralized freeze dried bone allograft⁸ while it eliminates concerns over viral transmission⁶, and is easier to work with in-situ. PerioGlas generates predictable results since the variability of osteogenic potential between donors is eliminated. 

PerioGlas® is more readily accepted by patients than animal derived products, and offers no risk of transgenic disease or rejection⁶. 

PerioGlas® is clinically shown to generate faster and denser bone growth than Hydroxyapatite and Tricalcium Phosphate^1,3. Also easier to work with in-situ, where it packs easily and stays in place³. It also reduces the epithelial downgrowth typically seen with these products1. 

Case Study : Post Extraction Ridge Preservation

Pre-operative radiograph of lower right first molar with advanced alveoolar bone loss and a class III furcation defect due to periodontal disease.


The tooth was extracted and the defect site filed with PerioGlas. This four-month follow-up radiograph shows progressive bone formation in the graft site.


Four-year follow-up radiograph shows that the height and the contour of the new alveolar bone formed in the graft site is stable.


Thanks to Dr. King Smith for this case. Dr. Smith is chairman of Dept. of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Fallston General Hospital, Maryland, U.S.A

Case Study : A Single Particle in-situ

	Upon contact with physiological fluids(i.e. blood), ions are exchanged and silica gel layer begins to form. It is this silica gel layer that promotes accelerated bone formation and differentiates PerioGlas® from other synthetic bone graft materials.
	Hydroxy-carbonate-apatite layer quickly develops and cannot be distinguished from the natural apatite of bones and teeth. Cells produce collagen fibers which bond the particles to the bone.
	Osteoblasts proliferate along the particle and begin to lay down new bone. This process begins in as little as two days.
	The regeneration process is complete in a matter of months, producing healthy, vascularized bone. Small amounts of residual PerioGlas® may remain present.
