Mesh Plate 37 x 25 x 0.2mm - Jeil Medical

What is the 37 x 25 x 0.2mm mesh plate - Jeil Medical?

The mesh plate developed by Jeil Medical is a bone fixation device used primarily in oral surgery. Presented as a perforated titanium plate, it has dimensions of 37 x 25 mm with a very thin thickness of 0.2mm. This mesh structure allows precise manipulation by the practitioner while ensuring the structural stability necessary to maintain grafts. Its perforated design promotes vascularization of the underlying tissues, a critical element for the success of guided bone regeneration. This Jeil Medical device is integrated into alveolar ridge reconstruction protocols where a rigid but permeable physical barrier is required.

What are the clinical indications?

This implantology titanium mesh is indicated for pre-implant or concomitant bone reconstruction procedures. It is particularly used in cases of horizontal or vertical ridge augmentations requiring mechanical maintenance of the filling material (autogenous, allogenic, or synthetic). In dental surgery, it allows for the delimitation of the space necessary for bone neoformation by preventing soft tissue invagination. Its 0.2mm thinness makes it suitable for areas where the volume of mucosal coverage is limited, while offering the necessary resistance to support pressures exerted by surrounding tissues during the healing phase.

What are the technical characteristics?

The technical specifications of this Jeil Medical product are based on its geometry and mechanical properties. With a surface area of 37 x 25 mm, it offers wide coverage for treating extensive bone defects. Its 0.2mm thickness is an optimal compromise between malleability, allowing the surgeon to conform it to the patient's specific anatomy, and rigidity to ensure space maintenance. The regular perforation of the perforated titanium plate ensures biological communication between the periosteum and the graft, facilitating the blood supply essential for osseointegration. The material used is compatible with standard sterilization protocols in force in oral surgery practices.

What are the contraindications for use?

Contraindications for the use of this mesh plate primarily include known allergies or hypersensitivities to the metallic components of the device. It must not be used in sites presenting an active untreated infection or severely compromised local vascularization. As with any fixation implant, systemic contraindications may apply, such as uncontrolled bone metabolism disorders, insufficient oral hygiene, or serious systemic pathologies interfering with healing. It is the practitioner's responsibility to evaluate the benefit-risk ratio based on the patient's general health status and the specificities of the recipient site before any implantation.

What are the precautions related to this non-resorbable device?

As it is a non-resorbable device, the Jeil Medical mesh plate requires rigorous planning regarding its exposure time and subsequent removal. Particular attention must be paid to the hermetic closure of the flaps to avoid any early exposure of the mesh, which could compromise the graft. The practitioner must ensure that the edges of the plate are carefully deburred or buried to avoid any soft tissue irritation. Fixation must be stable, generally ensured by synthetic micro-screws, to prevent any micromovement harmful to osteogenesis. Removal is usually performed after a sufficient period of bone maturation, in accordance with the established clinical protocol.

Who is the manufacturer and what standards are respected?

The device is manufactured by Jeil Medical Corp., a recognized manufacturer in the field of osteosynthesis and implantology. Although specific details of the regulatory class or CE marking are not explicitly mentioned in the provided technical documentation, Jeil Medical products are designed according to strict industrial standards for professional surgical use. The practitioner is invited to systematically refer to the product labeling and the instructions for use attached by Jeil Medical Corp. to verify current certifications, recommended sterilization methods, and specific safety instructions before any intervention.
