Vitality™ 5-0 Chromic Gut Sutures provide a sterile, absorbable solution designed to support natural wound healing while reducing the risk of foreign material retention. Each suture is equipped with a 16mm, 3/8 reverse-cutting needle crafted from surgical-grade 300-series stainless steel, delivering exceptional strength, durability, and precise handling.

The chromic-treated gut material maintains tensile strength for 10–14 days, providing critical wound support during the initial healing phase. With a smooth, silicone-coated needle tip and ultra-thin design, these sutures minimize tissue trauma while offering superior knot security and easy handling. A 27-inch (70 cm) monofilament thread ensures efficient suturing during longer oral surgeries without needing multiple sutures.

Vitality™ 5-0 Chromic Gut Sutures are ideal for implant placements, wisdom teeth extractions, and bone graft procedures where both strength and absorbability are essential.
