LifeNet Health has developed the first and only textured allograft foot wedge designed specifically to resist graft migration and subsidence.
Demineralized bone matrices (DBMs) have been used for decades in a wide variety of clinical applications involving bone repair. An ideal DBM provides both osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties, while offering versatile handling capabilities. Additionally, a DBM with angiogenic growth factors further supports new bone formation and healing by facilitating delivery of oxygen and nutrients through new blood vessels.

Clinical success with allograft use has been reported for the treatment of soft tissue and gingival augmentation. Tissue grafts such as Oracell® are used to provide new gingiva and cover the root.
Allograft bone blocks are a proven alternative to autogenous grafts which have several disadvantages including prolonged operation times, limited graft availability, and risk of damage to adjacent teeth. LifeNet Health’s Dental Allograft Solutions include structural and particulate grafts which provide strength and stability for predictable new bone formation of the alveolar ridge.
Almost 50% of adults 30 years and older have some form of periodontal disease and the prevalence increases with age. The global economic burden of periodontal disease remains high. The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy relies on the restoration of all components of the periodontium to their original architecture and function (not just bone stabilization).
Allografts can be used for sinus augmentation, maxillofacial reconstruction and correction of periodontal and ridge defects. Our tissue allografts are clinically proven in multiple applications. As a result, we are the world's most trusted provider of transplant solutions, from new innovations in tissue grafts and technologies to regenerative medicine and cellular therapies. Since 1995, more than 8 million allografts processed using Allowash® technology have been distributed by LifeNet Health with no disease transmission. 1-4

CardioGRAFT® allografts are the ideal solution for optimal cardiac repair and reconstruction.
Donated human-tissue grafts most closely resemble native tissue and are more resistant to infection than synthetics.1-3 Thanks to LifeNet Health's advanced processing techniques, these grafts consistently perform as they should, alleviating the need for anticoagulation therapy4 and reducing thrombotic potential.3
