Gen-Os®
The advantages of a Dual-Phase biomaterial
The product
Gen-Os® has a similar structure to human bone (matrix and porous form)¹ and presents osteoconductive properties²⁻³.
Thanks to its collagen content, Gen-Os® has chemotactic properties and facilitates blood clotting and the subsequent invasion of repairing and regenerative cells². In addition, it is gradually resorbable and provides appropriate support in bone neoformation⁴ and neo-angiogenesis⁵. Gen-Os® is a hydrophilic Dual-Phase xenograft, and it has been also used in association with growth factors⁶.

Gen-Os® can be mixed with patient's blood and can be used to effectively treat deep and narrow periodontal defects.
Why choose Gen-Os®?
Collagen is a precious protein for bone regeneration. Gen-Os® is the first Dual-Phase xenogenic bone substitute developed by Tecnoss® physically and chemically similar to autogenous bone¹. Gen-Os® can be used alone or mixed with AB chips whenever necessary⁷⁻⁹.
In addition, Gen-Os® has been successfully used for the treatment of deep and narrow periodontal defects⁴,¹⁰⁻¹³.
Finally, more than 25 years of clinical experience and about 100 scientific studies showed that Gen-Os® is a valid universal bone filler that allows predictable results in various surgical procedures³⁻¹⁴.
How to handle Gen-Os®
Gen-Os® must always be hydrated and thoroughly mixed with either a few drops of sterile physiological solution or the patient's blood to activate its collagen matrix embedded within the xenogenic bone granules.
