What is the difference between a hemostatic sponge and a bone graft plug?

A hemostatic sponge (Pure Sponge, Sponge HD, Silver Sponge) controls bleeding and protects the wound but does not support bone regeneration. A bone graft plug (SpongeGraft, ZenGraft) combines hemostasis with an integrated bone graft mineral, actively supporting new bone formation and socket preservation for future implant placement.

What is a bone graft plug and when is it used?

A bone graft plug is placed directly into an extraction socket after tooth removal. It achieves hemostasis and provides a scaffold for new bone formation, eliminating the need for a separate membrane in intact 4-wall sockets. Used for socket preservation, ridge augmentation, and implant site preparation.

What is the difference between SpongeGraft and Sponge ZenGraft?

SpongeGraft contains synthetic TCP/HA mineral — cost-effective with predictable resorption over 12-14 weeks. ZenGraft contains deproteinized bovine xenograft, offering faster revascularization and shorter healing time. ZenGraft is preferred when faster osseointegration is the clinical priority.

What hemostatic sponge should I use after tooth extraction?

For simple hemostasis: DSI Pure Sponge or Sponge HD. For high-risk or infected sites: Sponge Plus (iodoform + lidocaine) or Silver Sponge (colloidal silver). For periodontal pockets: DSI Perio Sponge with chlorhexidine. For socket preservation with bone regeneration: SpongeGraft or ZenGraft.

Do I need a membrane when using SpongeGraft or ZenGraft?

In most cases, no. Both plugs form their own biological barrier, eliminating the need for a separate membrane when all socket walls are intact. A membrane may still be recommended for large defects or compromised socket walls.

Hemostatic Sponges & Bone Graft Plugs — The Widest Selection for Post-Extraction Care

DIP Dental offers a comprehensive range of resorbable hemostatic sponges and bone graft plugs, covering every clinical need from simple bleeding control to full socket preservation and guided bone regeneration.

Hemostatic Sponges — Bleeding Control & Wound Protection

DSI Pure Sponge — Resorbable gelatin/collagen cubes that absorb 40–50x their weight in blood. Available as sterile individual blisters or bulk jars (non-sterile, ready for impregnation with antibiotics or hemostatic agents). Fully resorbed in 2 weeks.

Sponge HD — High-density hemostatic plugs (20×10mm) for optimal post-extraction wound healing and alveolar ridge conservation. Provides a stable foundation for future implant outcomes.

Sponge Plus — Collagen sponge pre-impregnated with iodoform, eugenol, thymol, and lidocaine. Hemostatic + antiseptic + anti-inflammatory in one. Ideal for alveolitis, periodontal abscesses, and high-risk extraction sites. Resorbed in 2–3 weeks.

Silver Sponge — Collagen sponge with colloidal silver for enhanced antimicrobial protection. Can be cut to fit any surgical cavity. Fully absorbed in 5 weeks.

DSI Perio Sponge — Collagen chips with 2.5mg chlorhexidine gluconate for periodontal pocket treatment and post-extraction infection prevention.

Bone Graft Plugs — One-Step Socket Preservation

SpongeGraft — Collagen plug impregnated with synthetic calcium phosphate/hydroxyapatite (TCP/HA). Eliminates the need for a separate membrane in intact 4-wall sockets. Cost-effective one-step grafting. Site ready for implant in 12–14 weeks.

Sponge ZenGraft — Two-phase collagen (bovine tendon type I) impregnated with deproteinized bovine xenograft. Promotes faster revascularization and shorter healing time compared to synthetic alternatives.

Clinical indications: Post-extraction hemostasis · Socket preservation · Ridge augmentation · Alveolitis treatment · Periodontal defects · Sinus augmentation · GBR procedures · Peri-implant defects · Cystectomy sites

All products are FDA, CE & ISO compliant.
