Straumann® Emdogain® FL

Cultivating periodontal regeneration.

When applied to cleaned tooth root surfaces the unique protein composition in Straumann Emdogain® FL is able to induce the regeneration of all periodontal tissues: cementum, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone and gingiva.

Features and benefits

Less surgeries

Adding Emdogain® to the initial phase of periodontal therapy helps avoiding the surgery by solving 42 % of the pockets non-surgically20

 

More effective

Significantly improved pocket probing depth reduction compared to the SRP procedure without Emdogain²²

More efficient

Similar results at 12 and 24 months as if the surgery would have been performed²¹

Less pain and inflammation

The wound healing properties of Emdogain® reduce pain reported by patients and overall inflammation markers²³

 

Minimal invasive

A reduced invasiveness is allowed thanks to the new thinner cannula20 that has a diameter similar to a periodontal probe

Thinner applicator for flapless use

True periodontal regeneration can now be achieved without  open flap surgery for pockets with depth of 5 – 9 mm after  Scaling and Root planning (SRP) procedures were performed20
