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.

Ethicon MONOCRYL is a sterile synthetic absorbable monofilament surgical suture manufactured from poliglecaprone 25, a copolymer of glycolide and ε-caprolactone. It is designed to provide high initial tensile strength, smooth tissue passage and predictable absorption.
This USP 2-0 violet variant measures 70 cm (27 inches) and is supplied in a double-armed configuration with SH 1/2 circle needles (Plus version), supporting symmetrical closure techniques and efficient wound approximation.
Poliglecaprone 25 has been found to be non-antigenic, non-pyrogenic and elicits only minimal tissue reaction during the absorption process. The violet colour is achieved using D&C Violet No.2 during polymerisation for enhanced visibility in the surgical field.
MONOCRYL complies with the European Pharmacopoeia requirements for sterile synthetic absorbable monofilament sutures and the United States Pharmacopoeia requirements for absorbable surgical sutures (except for slight diameter oversize as specified by the manufacturer).
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional surgical environments.
