During the design phase of this innovative product, our goal was to create a fixation tack that would be easy to place in any type of bone and capable of securely immobilizing the membranes currently used in GBR (both resorbable and non-resorbable), as well as meshes.
The TuffTack tack features a 2.5 mm diameter head, a fairly common size for this type of device. The shaft of the tack has a tapered shape, which allows for quick and easy removal.
TuffTack tacks are sold in a non-sterile state.
