NovoMatrixTM – the next generation soft-tissue augmentation material
When choosing a biomaterial, there is a strong demand in clinical practice for predictable outcomes. For over 20 years, LifeCellTM, an Allergan affiliate and leading global medical technology company,
has developed innovative products for use in a wide range of applications.
BioHorizons Camlog expands its soft-tissue portfolio in partnership with LifeCellTM to bring NovoMatrixTM, the next generation of soft-tissue augmentation material, into the European market. Full market release of this product will take place at the Oral Reconstruction Foundation Symposium in New York City in April 2020.
What is NovoMatrixTM?
NovoMatrixTM is an acellular extracellular dermal matrix consisting of tissue-engineered porcine material. NovoMatrixTM is a breakthrough in xenogenic processing ensuring a structurally intact, undamaged scaffold that supports cell and microvascular ingrowth. The proprietary tissue processing allows for rapid revascularization, cell repopulation and minimal inflammation. NovoMatrixTM comes pre-hydrated and ready to use and offers a true alternative to autogenous soft-tissue grafts and current products on the market.
Indications and clinical evidence
The NovoMatrixTM indications include guided tissue regeneration procedures in recession defects for root coverage, localized gingival augmentation to increase keratinized tissue (KT) around teeth and alveolar ridge reconstruction for prosthetic treatment. Dr Edward Pat Allen, one of the pioneer users of NovoMatrixTM, says: “NovoMatrixTM graft exhibits uniform physical characteristics and great surgical handling, enhancing its ease of use in the tunnelling technique. This results in an excellent clinical outcome with minimal post-operative swelling and inflammation.”
INSPIRING EXCELLENCE IN ORAL RECONSTRUCTION
“NovoMatrixTM represents a significant addition to our soft-tissue product portfolio,” said Steve Boggan,
President and CEO of BioHorizons. “We now offer our customers a differentiated alternative to
connective tissue for applications such as root coverage and soft-tissue augmentation around implants
and natural teeth.”
