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.

This PDS® Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Surgical Suture, product code PDP1712H, is engineered for refined soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring extended tensile strength and antimicrobial protection. Manufactured from synthetic absorbable polydioxanone monofilament, PDS® Plus provides smooth tissue passage, predictable hydrolytic absorption and prolonged wound stability.
Incorporating antibacterial technology, PDS® Plus is designed to inhibit bacterial colonisation of the suture, supporting infection risk management in surgical environments. The USP 6-0 diameter delivers delicate tensile performance suitable for fine soft tissue layers requiring secure approximation and precise handling.
The 70 cm strand length supports controlled placement and meticulous suturing techniques in delicate operative fields. This suture is supplied with a CC175-8 tapercut needle (9.3 mm). The tapercut configuration combines a tapered body with a fine cutting tip, enabling controlled penetration of dense or fibrous tissue while minimising trauma and maintaining needle stability.
With an extended absorption profile of approximately 182–238 days, PDS® Plus maintains tensile strength throughout the critical healing phase before gradual absorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring reliable long-term absorbable wound closure with antibacterial protection.
