Since 1994, Luitpold Pharmaceuticals' Osteohealth Company has been distributing leading bone grafting materials used by dental professionals throughout the world.   The Company’s overriding goal is to develop and distribute, with professionalism and integrity, products that have been clinically and scientifically proven to enhance patient care.  Osteohealth has dedicated its efforts towards the development of new products based upon the principles of tissue engineering and is committed to providing dental professionals with superior products engineered to regenerate bone and other tissues.

With recent advances made in technology, the fields of bone grafting and guided bone regeneration (GBR) have experienced tremendous growth. Procedures to repair and grow new bone in order to retain and support natural teeth and dental implants are now becoming part of routine dental surgical care.

Osteohealth Products:

Bio-Oss® is a natural bone graft material that has been used in over three million patients. Because Bio-Oss^® is so similar to human bone, it is highly successful in supporting new bone growth and in many cases eliminates the need for additional surgery to harvest the patient's own bone.

Bio-Gide®  is a thin resorbable membrane made from natural collagen. It is placed directly over the area of the grafted material and encourages new bone to form. It also prevents the growth of scar tissue at the grafted site and promotes healing of the gingival (gum) tissue after surgery.

Bio-Oss Collagen®  has all of the advantages of Bio-Oss® with additional beneficial handling properties.  It is provided in a block which is moldable and adaptable to bony defects.

GEM 21S®  Growth Factor Enhanced Matrix is a completely synthetic grafting system which combines recombinant human platelet derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB) with a Beta-tricalcium Phosphate matrix (β-TCP).  The added growth factor is unique in its ability to actively stimulate the body’s natural healing process.
