The present invention belongs to the biomaterials sector for covering and protecting bone grafts / biomaterials, and it refers, more specifically, to a
titanium mesh, covered with a biocompatible
polypropylene film, which aims to obtain an increase in
bone volume, using biomaterials or using grafts in their most varied forms, such as
autogenous bone (bone from the individual), allogenous (bone from individuals of the same species), xenogeneic (bone from individuals from different species) for subsequent
accommodation of osteointegrable implants. When using the mesh protected with the
polypropylene film of this patent, blocking the perforations, the materials used to increase volume do not penetrate the perforations of the mesh, as they are blocked by the
polypropylene film, making these meshes 100% impermeable. This makes it easy to remove the mesh and as there is no penetration of materials into the perforations, the implants are placed in a large quantity of
bone tissue obtained. With the
titanium mesh together with the polypropylene film, unlike when it does not have this protection, does not require its total coverage by surgical flaps, facilitating the surgical technique, thus avoiding postoperative complications, due to exposures that often occur from unprotected meshes. Moreover, we obtain the
advantage of being able to keep the mesh intentionally exposed to the oral environment, placed on the materials used to achieve an increase in
bone volume, regardless of the materials used under it, whether they are grafts or biomaterials (
synthetic materials). This fact brings greater comfort to the patient, as it provides a postoperative period with very low morbidity and a quick
recovery.
