Coltene Roeko Gelatamp Blister Pack/ Absorbable & Bactericidal Gelatin Spon

Gelatamp is a gelatine sponge for the prophylaxis of wound infections and secondary bleeding after extractions. Gelatamp contains colloidal silver and is therefore distinctly different from pure gelatine sponges. The silver leads to a broad antibacterial effect over the entire absorption time and gives gelatamp its specific brown colour. Gelatamp gelatine sponges are absorbable, well-tolerated products for safe wound treatment and hemostasis of wound cavities and alveoli. Gelatamp
is sold gamma-sterilised.

The treatment of alveoli and wound cavities, e.g. After

•  Extractions
•  Apical amputations
•  Maxillary sinus perforations
•  Other surgical treatments (removal of tumours or retained teeth)

Prophylaxis of

• Secondary cavity formation
• Wound infections
• Secondary haemorrhage prophylaxis as well as a dressing after gingivectomy and in periodontopathies

After extractions and other surgical treatment complications often occur, particularly due to bacterial infection. Gelatamp provides the dentist with an effective, biocompatible medical device for reliable post extraction treatment. Gelatamp has the great advantage that it is both haemostatic and bactericidal.
