Zimmer Collagen Capsules and Zimmer Collagen Wedge, offer clinicians the versatility and ease-of-use necessary to meet their patients’ needs during a sinus lift procedure, socket repair, and other wound healing applications. Zimmer Collagen Capsules are touted as the industry’s first ever bone-shaping membranes. Both Zimmer Collagen Capsules and Zimmer Collagen Wedge, stem from an exclusive distribution agreement with Osseous Technologies of America (OTA).

The hollow, three-dimensional Zimmer Collagen Capsules (3.0cc, 1.5cc, and 0.6cc) support focused on bone augmentation, and can be used in both crestal and lateral sinus lift procedures. These unique capsules, which can be positioned with the Zimmer Sinus Lift Balloon or other delivery instruments, are well-suited for repairing tears to the Schneiderian membrane, and efficiently retain grafting material during socket preservation and repair procedures.

The pliable Zimmer Collagen Wedge, which holds its shape and can be trimmed for a custom fit, can be used for bone defects and ridge augmentation procedures, and is also suitable for oral wound healing applications. The 23x38mm wedge’s thicker, reinforced edge allows for attachment to the lateral wall with tacks.
