Osteogenics Biomedical enters the dental bone grafting market with a dense PTFE membrane. The company is incorporated with a mission of developing dental bone grafting products to increase the predictability of regenerative procedures.
Osteogenics introduces a new patented surface technology - the Regentex™ textured surface - to the dense PTFE membrane. This 3rd generation PTFE membrane combines the benefits of a membrane occlusive to bacteria with a textured surface that helps stabilize the membrane and soft tissue flap.
Osteogenics introduces the first nitride-coated ridge augmentation mesh - Osteo-Mesh™ TM-300.
Osteogenics acquires Permaridge® synthetic ridge augmentation matrix from CeraMed Dental. Permaridge® helps correct alveolar ridge resorption, providing denture wearers with more stable and comfortable dentures.
Osteogenics relocates to a larger manufacturing facility in Lubbock, TX.
Osteogenics receives a technique patent for treating alveolar bone defects using dense PTFE membranes - the Cytoplast Technique™. The Cytoplast Technique™ for socket grafting is the first technique utilizing membranes left exposed, thereby reducing surgical time, preserving soft tissue architecture and increasing keratinzed mucosa. Because the Cytoplast™ dense PTFE membranes are impervious to bacteria, they are especially well-suited to be left exposed in the oral environment.
Osteogenics expands its regenerative portfolio with the addition of Cytoplast™ PTFE Suture and Cytoplast™ RTM collagen membranes. The company is one of only two companies in the world to manufacture PTFE suture.
Osteogenics receives ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 quality certifications, demonstrating compliance with strict European quality guidelines.
Osteogenics moves its corporate headquarters and manufacturing operations into a new 7,000 square-foot state-of-the-art facility in Lubbock, TX.
The company receives MDD/93/42/EEC certification, allowing the company to expand into Europe by distributing under the CE mark.
The company applies its Regentex™ surfaced technology to its line of titanium-reinforced membranes. Osteogenics also introduces four new titanium-reinforced application-specific membrane sizes.
Osteogenics Clinical Education™, a division of Osteogenics Biomedical, is established with a mission of providing interactive, hands-on clinical education in bone grafting and implant dentistry.
Osteogenics introduces two application-specific titanium-reinforced membrane sizes. The new sizes are the first to incorporate pilot holes and a broader titanium frame.
170 clinicians from six countries and three continents attend Osteogenics Clinical Education's™ first global bone grafting symposium in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Osteogenics signs an agreement with META Advanced Medical Technology in Italy, giving the company distribution rights in the U.S. and Canada for its dental bone grafting products, including its autogenous bone collectors Micross and Safescraper®, and crestal sinus lift kit, SinCrest.
Osteogenics introduces the Pro-fix™ Precision Fixation System. Pro-fix™ is first introduced with self-drilling membrane fixation screws and will soon include self-drilling tenting screws and self-tapping bone fixation screws.
Osteogenics introduces enCore® Combination Allograft and enCore® Mineralized Allograft, the first dental bone grafting product introduced by Osteogenics. The combination allograft is the first particulate dental bone grafting product to combine mineralized and demineralized bone in a single bottle.
Osteogenics moves into a new 10,000 square-foot manufacturing facility, adding to its corporate headquarters campus in Lubbock, Texas.
Osteogenics undergoes major renovations to its corporate headquarters to maximize space for company growth.
Osteogenics acquires exclusive distribution rights to sell the synthetic, osteostimulative NovaBone® Dental products in the U.S. and Canada. Within the NovaBone® product line is an especially unique product, NovaBone® Dental Putty, a pre-mixed moldable putty that is available in a variety of delivery systems.
Osteogenics introduces Zcore™ porcine xenograft particulate, an osteoconductive anorganic bone mineral derived from porcine cancellous bone. Hyper-porosity of the porcine cancellous matrix and intra-particle space reduces bulk density of the graft, allowing 88 – 95% empty space for bone growth.
Osteogenics acquires the exclusive North American distribution rights for the premium German dental suture brand, Resorba®. Resorba® sutures are made from unique materials that are designed especially for dentistry and are available with black 300-series stainless steel needles that enhance visualization in the mouth.
Osteogenics introduces the newest product to complement the family of enCore® allografts - enCore® OD allograft, comprised of 30% mineralized cortical bone and 70% mineralized cancellous bone. enCore® OD is designed to be used with osseodensification (OD) protocols.
Osteogenics expands its regenerative portfolio with the addition of absorbable collagen wound dressings - Cytoplast™ RTMPlug, RTMFoam, and RTMTape.
Osteogenics launches its newest collagen membrane, Zmatrix, a natural/native non-cross-linked porcine peritoneum collagen membrane that is pliable enough to contour to its environment but substantial enough to not adhere to itself.
RPM™ Reinforced PTFE Mesh is introduced. Its unique circular macroporous design allows for direct contact between the bone graft and periosteum, allowing
naturally occurring revascularization and infiltration of cells into the bone graft. RPM's titanium frame maintains space essential for horizontal and vertical ridge augmentation, and the PTFE mesh easily conforms to tissue contours.
Osteogenics acquires distribution rights for the Swann-Morton® premium micro-serrated blades. These blades are designed with a unique cutting edge that results in a consistently sharp blade. The edge design combines a micro-serrated edge with a razor edge that provides the user with a tactile sensitivity improving depth control, while also creating equal, smooth tissue margins.
