Collection details
SutureVet stocks a specialist range of veterinary dental sutures designed for the unique demands of intraoral surgery in animals. The oral cavity presents specific challenges — a moist, mobile environment with constant bacterial exposure — requiring suture materials that resist degradation, tie securely in wet conditions, and minimise post-operative patient discomfort.
Our veterinary dental suture range includes absorbable and non-absorbable options in both monofilament and braided constructions, available in fine gauges appropriate for gingival tissue, oral mucosa, and intraoral soft tissue repair. Needle configurations are selected for precise placement in the confined spaces of the oral cavity, with atraumatic profiles that reduce tissue trauma during suture passage.
Suitable for use in dogs, cats, rabbits, and other veterinary species undergoing dental extractions, periodontal surgery, oral mass removal, or palate repair. All products are sourced from ISO-certified manufacturers and supplied sterile and individually packaged.
SutureVet supplies veterinary dental specialists and general practices with dental capability across the UK. Order online with fast UK dispatch and competitive trade pricing.
