Collection details
SutureVet's braided dental veterinary sutures offer excellent knot security and superior handling characteristics in the challenging wet environment of the oral cavity. The multifilament braided construction ties smoothly and holds knots reliably — a critical advantage when working in the confined, moisture-rich spaces of intraoral surgery where knot integrity directly impacts wound closure success.
Our braided dental suture range includes absorbable polyglactin options that dissolve predictably within the mucosal healing timeframe, eliminating the need for suture removal in a location that is difficult to access and stressful for the patient. Fine gauges and atraumatic needle profiles are selected specifically for veterinary dental applications including tooth extractions, gingival flap closure, and oral soft tissue repair in dogs, cats, and other veterinary species.
While braided sutures have greater surface area than monofilament options, modern coated braided dental sutures minimise tissue drag and bacterial wicking, making them a clinically sound choice for many intraoral applications. All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile, synthetic, rapidly absorbable surgical suture composed of polyglactin 910 and specially processed to accelerate absorption, providing short-term wound support during the early stages of healing.
This USP 6-0 (metric 0.7) violet suture is supplied in a 30 cm length and is intended for fine soft tissue approximation where rapid absorption and minimal long-term tensile strength retention are desirable.
VICRYL RAPIDE sutures are absorbed more rapidly than standard VICRYL by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and eliminating the need for suture removal in appropriate cases. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional hospital and clinical environments.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and designed for rapid absorption and short-term wound support.
The braided construction provides excellent handling characteristics and secure knot performance, making it suitable for superficial soft tissue approximation where extended tensile strength retention is not required.
This USP 3-0 undyed variant measures 45 cm in length and is supplied as a non-needled ligature (no attached needle), allowing flexibility for ligation or surgeon-selected needle use.
VICRYL RAPIDE is engineered to provide fast absorption, typically losing tensile strength more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, making it ideal for skin closure and minor procedures.
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 24 for professional surgical environments.
