Vitality™ 6-0 Polypropylene Sutures are designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation in dental and oral surgery procedures that require extended suture retention. As a non-absorbable, monofilament suture, it offers excellent biocompatibility and knot security with minimal tissue reactivity.
This suture is especially suitable for:
Mucogingival and periodontal surgeries
Free gingival and connective tissue grafts
Guided bone regeneration (GBR)
Soft tissue closure in areas requiring long-term support
Vitality™ Polypropylene Sutures offer performance comparable to PROLENE® 6-0 sutures, delivering the same surgical reliability and needle control—at a more competitive price. The C-3 equivalent 13 mm, 3/8 reverse cutting needle ensures smooth penetration and reduced trauma during tissue handling.
