PARASORB Sombrero® is a Membrane-Cone made of equine collagen (originating from horse), manufactured according to a very special procedure and stringent quality standards. This procedure is derived from the manufacture of membranes to cover defects in the meninges (dura mater), uses the same biomatrix as source material, and thus guarantees a product of the highest purity and outstanding biocompatibility.
The application areas of PARASORB Sombrero® include:
- coverage and simultaneous filling of the alveolus (socket preservation)
- coverage and simultaneous defect filling in guided bone regeneration (GBR)
- treatment of the alveolus and other bone defects
PARASORB Sombrero®: unique combination of membrane and collagen cone!
"Experience to date with the use of Sombrero has been very good. Both the adaptation to individual situations, as well as handling of the product on the patient are without problems.
Its use leads to reliable bony healing of the alveolus with a stable epithelial cover as the prerequisite for a subsequent implementation, maxillofacial tooth movement or prosthetic care.

PARASORB Sombrero® – the special Membrane-Cone!
The conical part of the PARASORB Sombrero® offers:
- stabilisation of the blood clot
- Stabilisation of the alveolus and thus preservation of the sensitive vestibular lamellae
- volumetric stability of the alveolar extension
- osteo- and angioconductive properties
- stable, bony healing of the alveolar socket
- improved long-term aesthetic and funtional results
The membrane part (PARASORB RESODONT®) of the PARASORB Sombrero® offers:
- the barrier function of PARASORB RESODONT® prevents ingrowths of connective tissue, whilst the surface structure of the membrane allows growth of bone-forming cells
- allows rapid epithelisation above of membrane
- saliva-proof closure protects against infections
The combination of both products results in the following performance features:
- simple handling, because the membrane and cone are firmly connected together
- creation of a defined regeneration matrix
- formation of a stable bony implant site after a relatively short time
- marginal gingiva only has to be detached to a minimal extent (minimises trauma / tissue supply largely maintained))
- improved long-term aesthetic and functional results
- leads to a stable epithelial coverage
- completely absorbable
As a result of the special manufacturing process (complete reconstitution of collagen) and the equine source material used, PARASORB Sombrero® also excels with further properties:
| Particularly fine microstructure | Highly pure collagen | Equine collagen |
| Cross-linking without chemical additives, so no risk of residues | Almost no infection potential | High product savety (BSE/TSE) |
| Microstructure allows the growth of bone-forming cells | Almost no immunological risk | Ethnic/religious neutrality |
| Ethnic/religious neutrality |
Docking site for proteins (growth factors) |

What is the experience with PARASORB Sombrero®?
The use of collagen products to build up and maintain bone substance has been a standard therapy in dentistry and maxillofacial surgery for many years now. Our membrane and collagen cones have been used many thousands of times at home and abroad which confirms the efficacy and dependability of these products.
