## Indications for use
GORE DRAPEABLE ST and LT Regenerative Membranes are bioabsorbable, implantable materials intended to aid in the healing of periodontal and bone defects. They may also be used as a membrane for bone graft containment. When used over a bone graft, GORE DRAPEABLE ST and LT Regenerative Membranes provide a stable barrier to prevent migration of bone graft material and provides a favorable environment for bone regeneration. When used in the treatment of non-spacemaking defects, GORE DRAPEABLE ST and LT Regenerative Membranes may be used in combination with spacemaking bone graft materials (e.g., autogenous bone, bone substitutes).
