Resorbable Sutures

Resorbable sutures for oral surgery, periodontal and implant site closure, in PGA, plain gut, chromic gut and PDO, as monofilament and braided threads. They break down on their own, so there is no need for a suture removal visit.

Plain gut resorbs quickest and suits simple extraction sites. Chromic gut and PGA hold longer, and PDO monofilament keeps its strength for several weeks with little plaque buildup.

Choose the size by the tissue, with finer threads for papillae and thin gingiva and thicker ones for general closure.
