Vicylon™ PTFE suture

Vicylon™ PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Suture is a synthetic, non-absorbable monofilament suture engineered specifically for demanding dental and oral reconstructive procedures. Combining exceptional biocompatibility with unmatched handling characteristics, it represents the gold standard for soft tissue closure in implant dentistry and bone regeneration. Key Features & Benefits 100% Pure PTFE Monofilament Unlike braided sutures, our high-density PTFE monofilament structure prevents "wicking" (bacterial migration through the suture body), significantly reducing the risk of surgical site infection and ensuring optimal healing. Extreme Softness & Patient Comfort Designed with a highly flexible micro-texture that mimics soft tissue. The knots sit flat and smooth, minimizing mucosal irritation and eliminating the sharp "poke" sensation common with nylon or polypropylene sutures. Zero Tissue Drag & Excellent Knot Security Vicylon™ PTFE slides effortlessly through delicate oral tissues without tearing or sawing. Its unique molecular structure provides outstanding knot holding power, virtually eliminating spontaneous untying under tongue movement. Highly Visible & Chemically Inert The medical-grade white monofilament offers superb contrast against the bloody oral field, simplifying suture placement and eventual removal. It is completely bio-inert, causing zero inflammatory tissue reaction.

Indications

• Vicylon™ PTFE Suture is highly recommended for clinical procedures where tissue tension, long-term stability, and plaque resistance are critical:
• Socket Preservation (Ridge Preservation)
• Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) & Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR)
• Dental Implant Placement
• Periodontal Flap Surgery & Mucogingival Procedures
