Handling video: Geistlich Mucograft® Seal (PD Dr. Stefan Fickl, Wurzburg, Germany)
Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is a small round matrix designed to seal sockets with preserved buccal walls following ridge preservation.
Geistlich Mucograft® Seal is easy to handle:
- No need for pre-treatment or pre-hydration.
- De-epithelialise adjacent soft-tissue margins before applying Geistlich Mucograft® Seal, thus promoting soft-tissue cell migration into the matrix.
- Position the compact structure facing outwards and the spongy structure towards the extraction socket.
- Suture using non-resorbable sutures, not glue.
- Close adaptation of the matrix to tissue borders can be accomplished by single interrupted sutures, double interrupted sutures or cross sutures.
Ready to use: Direct from the blister to the defect without pre-treatment or pre-hydration.
Geistlich Mucograft® Seal does not require pre-hydration or washing. It should be handled and applied in a dry state.
Before applying Geistlich Mucograft® Seal, adjacent soft-tissue margins should be de-epithelialised. This allows soft-tissue cells to migrate from the soft-tissue boarder into the matrix.

The close adaptation of the device to tissue boarders can be accomplished by single interrupted sutures...
