MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE THE RIGHT SUTURE FOR ALL YOUR SURGICAL NEEDS
SURGICAL SUTURES The purpose of the surgical suture (medical device) is to hold body tissues of the surgical wound together until the healing process progresses to such an extent that it is not considered necessary to further support it. Main parts of a surgical suture are the thread and the needle, and a number of different shapes, sizes and thread material have been developed over the last decades. Our goal is to develop and produce the perfect suture for all of your dental procedures. We achieve this by choosing the best suppliers and keeping our production and quality updated with the high standards of Pharmacopeia (US & EP).
MONOFILAMENT VS. MULTIFILAMENT
OMNIA SUTURES
MONOFILAMENT • Encounter less resistance as they pass through tissue • They resist harboring organisms • These characteristics make monofilament sutures well-suited to vascular surgery • Extreme care must be taken when handling and tying these sutures • Crushing or bending of this suture type can create a weak spot in the strand. This may result in suture breakage • Monofilaments usually require more knots to prevent slippage
MULTIFILAMENT • They offer greater tensile strength and flexibility Pliability, easier to handle • Multifilament sutures may be coated to help them pass relatively smoothly through tissue and enhance handling characteristics • Coated multifilament sutures are well-suited to intestinal procedures
