Collection details
SutureVet's absorbable dental veterinary sutures are the preferred choice for intraoral wound closure in veterinary patients, eliminating the need for suture removal in a location that is difficult to access and stressful for both patient and clinician. Absorbable materials dissolve naturally through hydrolysis or enzymatic degradation, with absorption timelines carefully matched to mucosal and gingival healing rates.
Our absorbable dental suture range includes fast-absorbing options ideal for gingival flap closure and extraction sites where rapid mucosal healing is expected, as well as standard-absorption materials for more complex oral soft tissue repairs requiring longer wound support. Both monofilament and braided absorbable constructions are available, with fine gauges and atraumatic intraoral needle profiles suited to veterinary dental procedures in dogs, cats, rabbits, and other species.
Choosing the right absorbable dental suture reduces post-operative complications, eliminates the need for a second anaesthetic for suture removal, and improves the overall patient experience. All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers trusted by veterinary dental specialists across the UK.

This PDS® Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Surgical Suture, product code PDP1002H, is engineered for refined soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring extended tensile strength and antimicrobial protection. Manufactured from synthetic absorbable polydioxanone monofilament, PDS® Plus delivers smooth tissue passage, predictable hydrolytic absorption and prolonged wound support.
The integrated antibacterial technology is designed to inhibit bacterial colonisation of the suture, supporting infection risk management in surgical environments. The USP 6-0 diameter provides delicate tensile performance suitable for fine soft tissue and vascular layers requiring precise handling and secure approximation.
The 70 cm strand length supports controlled placement and meticulous suturing techniques. This suture is supplied with a BV taperpoint needle (11 mm), enabling smooth penetration of delicate tissue while minimising trauma and maintaining stability during placement.
With an extended absorption profile of approximately 182–238 days, PDS® Plus maintains tensile strength throughout the critical healing phase before gradual absorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring reliable long-term absorbable wound closure with antibacterial protection.
