DENTOSPON®: Absorbable haemostatic/hemostatic gelatin sponge with colloidal silver Haemostat/Hemostat/ Dental Sponge

DENTOSPON ® : Absorbable haemostatic gelatin Dental sponge with 5% colloidal silver Haemostat/Hemostat • Quick haemostasis • Stabilizes the blood coagulum • Smooth and complete resorption • Effective against a wide range of bacteria • Long lasting depot effect With DENTOSPON ® • There are no complications in the healing process • The wound does not have to be reopened • Time is saved Dental Sponge After extractions and other surgical treatment complications often occur, particularly due to bacterial infection. DENTOSPON ® provides the dentist with an effective, biocompatible medical device for reliable post extraction treatment. DENTOSPON ® has the great advantage that it is both haemostatic and bactericidal. DENTOSPON ® is made of foam gelatine and finely dispersed (colloidal) silver. Silver forms silver ions in moist conditions. Even small quantities of these ions are antimicrobial, without developing resistance. Composition : One DENTOSPON ® gelatine sponge (14 × 7 × 7 mm) contains: Hardened gelatine Ph. Eur. 9.5 mg Colloid silver Ph. Eur. 0.5 mg The evenly porous foam structure absorbs its own weight in blood several times over, promotes thrombocyte aggregation due to the large surface and fills the wound cavity. The plug thus formed has a constant volume, fits snugly and stabilises blood coagulum. This prevents the formation of fissures and secondary cavities which, without DENTOSPONTM, could form by contraction of the blood coagulum and trigger infection due to the invasion of contaminated saliva. DENTOSPON ® remains in the alveolus and is completely resorbed within 4 weeks. DENTOSPON ® is made from gelatine of pharmaceutical quality and from colloidal silver. Quality control at all stages: raw material, production, sterilisation and the finished product, guarantees uniform high quality and effectiveness. DENTOSPON ® does not contain any colouring agents.
