Why Choose Vitality™ 6-0 Polypropylene Suture？

Vitality™ 6-0 Polypropylene Sutures offer a reliable, non-absorbable solution designed for high-precision dental procedures that require extended suture retention. Manufactured from medical-grade polypropylene, this blue monofilament suture delivers excellent tensile strength, minimal tissue reactivity, and superior knot security.

Comparable to PROLENE® sutures but offered at a more competitive price, the Vitality™ 6-0 Polypropylene Suture features an extra-long 30-inch (75 cm) thread, reducing the need for suture changes during delicate procedures. Equipped with a 13mm, 3/8 reverse-cutting needle (C-3 equivalent), it ensures smooth, controlled tissue penetration and lasting suture placement.

Ideal for mucogingival surgeries, guided bone regeneration (GBR), and connective tissue grafts, this suture is a top choice for oral surgeons seeking precision, durability, and efficiency.
