Collection details
SutureVet's monofilament dental veterinary sutures offer smooth tissue passage, minimal bacterial wicking, and low tissue reactivity — making them an excellent choice for intraoral wound closure where infection risk and post-operative inflammation must be carefully managed. The single-strand construction glides cleanly through delicate gingival and mucosal tissue, reducing trauma during suture placement in the confined spaces of the oral cavity.
Our monofilament dental suture range includes both absorbable options such as poliglecaprone, which dissolves predictably within the mucosal healing timeframe, and non-absorbable monofilament materials such as nylon for cases where suture removal is planned. Fine gauges and intraoral needle configurations are selected to suit veterinary dental procedures including tooth extractions, gingival flap surgery, and oral soft tissue repair in dogs, cats, rabbits, and other species.
Monofilament sutures are particularly valued in dental surgery for their reduced surface area and lower propensity for bacterial colonisation compared to braided alternatives. All products are supplied sterile and individually packaged from ISO-certified manufacturers.

75 cm – Blue – DS 36 (36 mm) Cutting Needle (Box of 12)
LUXAMID Nylon Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Sutures are intended for general soft tissue approximation and ligation where long-term tensile strength is required. Manufactured from high-quality polyamide monofilament, these sutures are non-absorbable and designed to produce minimal tissue reaction.
The smooth monofilament construction provides low tissue drag, excellent handling characteristics, and reliable knot security, supporting precise placement and consistent clinical performance. The blue colouring enhances visibility against tissue, aiding accurate suture placement during procedures.
This variant is supplied in USP 3/0, 75 cm length, and fitted with a DS 36 (36 mm) cutting needle, designed to cut cleanly through tougher tissue such as skin. Cutting needles are particularly suitable for skin closure and procedures requiring controlled penetration and precise incision.
LUXAMID nylon sutures are widely used in hospitals, clinics, and surgical centres for skin closure, general surgery, and plastic surgery applications where non-absorbable wound support is required. Each box contains 12 sterile sutures, individually packaged to maintain sterility and suitability for professional surgical use.
