Inion GTR - Biodegradable Tacks

The use of Inion GTR™ Tacks with the biodegradable membrane is indicated for surgical treatment of periodontal defects (e.g. class II furcation defects, intrabony defects and recession type defects), for pre-implant and peri-implant surgery and for covering bone defects and empty sockets.

The Inion GTR™ Biodegradable Tacks are made of degradable copolymers composed of L-lactide, D, L-lactide, and trimethylene carbonate. These polymers degrade in vivo by hydrolysis into alpha-hydroxy acids that are metabolized by the body.

Fast and easy to use

• Simple Tack loading by the single-use or reusable Tack Applicator
• Easy to reach the surgical site by choosing either angled or straight end of the Tack Applicator to insert the Tack
• Immediate Tack placement after drilling through the membrane – No suturing is necessary

Biocompatibility

• Bioabsorbable: no removal surgery needed; based on the in vitro testing, the Tacks retain approximately 80% of their initial strength 8 weeks after implantation
• Safe and synthetic biomaterials
