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.

This ETHILON™ Black Monofilament Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture, product code W1685BH, is designed for secure soft tissue approximation where dependable tensile strength and extended strand length are required. Manufactured from non-absorbable nylon monofilament, ETHILON provides smooth tissue passage, minimal tissue reactivity and reliable long-term wound support.
The USP 3-0 size delivers firm tensile performance suitable for skin closure and general soft tissue procedures requiring accurate wound edge alignment. The extended 30 inch (75 cm) strand length offers increased working reach, making it ideal for longer suture lines and deeper operative fields.
W1685BH is supplied single-armed with one PS Prime reverse cutting needle measuring approximately 24 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature. The reverse cutting configuration enhances controlled penetration through skin while helping reduce tissue cut-through. Prime needle technology ensures sustained sharpness and consistent procedural performance.
Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36 sutures, this product is intended for professional clinical and hospital environments requiring dependable non-absorbable wound closure.
